Such a promising career...  Such a tragedy....  
"I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!" had to be the final downfall for Lou.

Sorry It's not mariachi, it's huapango, a Veracruz "son".

I love the mariachi epilogue on this version. It brings a lot more complexity and interest to an otherwise ho-hum song.

Massive and massively overplayed pop hit but if you put on the headphones and check out the instrumentation you'll respect it a little more... and yeah then the outro really takes it into the stratosphere.

You should have played Ritchie Valens original, although I understand your love of covers...

 Now Playing:
Los Lobos - La Bamba
Buddy Holly - Well All Right
 

Looks like Bill likes that running order, as it's repeating right now! {#Angel}

Please, play any other song performed by Los Lobos rather than this one.

De acuerdo.(I agree), pero esta version de Los Lobos incluyo un pasaje de la cancion original de Vera Cruz.(but this version did include a passage from the original folk version from Vera Cruz, Mexico. It's all good. (Esta bien Todo)/
