I need help on this one. Does anyone remember the Burger King advert where a band was singing the One Ninety'er song, well I need to find out the original song name & artist. I'm doing a disco for someone and his wife has asked me to get it but for the life of me I can't remember the name. it's been doing my head in for weeks.

Thanks in advance

Sniffer
(nice to get away from the satellite stuff for 5 minutes)
 
GUANTANAMERA is the name of the song, you sad git. :-lmao


Code:
GUANTANAMERA 
Original music by Jose Fernandez Diaz
Music adaptation by Pete Seeger & Julian Orbon
Lyric adaptation by Julian Orbon, based on a poem by Jose Marti

Yo soy un hombre sincero
De donde crecen las palmas
Yo soy un hombre sincero
De donde crecen las palmas
Y antes de morirme quiero
Echar mis versos del alma

Chorus:
Guantanamera
Guajira Guantanamera
Guantanamera
Guajira Guantanamera

Mi verso es de un verde claro
Y de un carmin encendido
Mi verso es de un verde claro
Y de un carmin encendido
Mi verso es un ciervo herido
Que busca en el monte amparo

Chorus

I am a truthful man from this land of palm trees
Before dying I want to share these poems of my soul
My verses are light green
But they are also flaming red

(the next verse says,)
I cultivate a rose in June and in January
For the sincere friend who gives me his hand
And for the cruel one who would tear out this
heart with which I live
I do not cultivate thistles nor nettles
I cultivate a white rose

Cultivo la rosa blanca
En junio como en enero
Qultivo la rosa blanca
En junio como en enero
Para el amigo sincero
Que me da su mano franca

Chorus

Y para el cruel que me arranca
El corazon con que vivo
Y para el cruel que me arranca
El corazon con que vivo
Cardo ni ortiga cultivo
Cultivo la rosa blanca

Chorus

Con los pobres de la tierra
Quiero yo mi suerte echar
Con los pobres de la tierra
Quiero yo mi suerte echar
El arroyo de la sierra
Me complace mas que el mar

Chorus

Well I'm a embarrassed now to say the least. "Think before you type" is my new moto. Rolf you're as sad as me mate. But hey lads wasn't it nice to get away from the old satellites for a min. Rolf how about this for an idea a quiz section for sad gits that know sad things and the first person who puts up the right answer can become a fellow Sad Git like us. Catchy? lol
 
Hmm, a sad gits' section. :D Not a bad idea at all, will look at a format for it. :)
 
Not really fair..some of us are sadder than others and have a vast data base of all things sad.....some of the younger bucks wouldn't have a breeze...I think we'd end up like Roy and his new mate on Corrie St..shudder... shudder.
Cheers

O-Ha
 
Rolf, could you PM me when you've set of the forum. Sounds like the next best thing to a villa in Iceland: perfect. ;)

Mark.
