  3. Para llorar la tristeza
    Para llorar la tristeza
    Se necesita una poca de lágrima

    Arriba y arriba

  6. DAY THREE: Another song Selena y Los Dinos covered was La Bamba. I think the most notable rendition of the song was from Ritchie Valens. The reason why I like Selena y Los Dinos' version so much is that you can tell it's from their early days. Selena didn't speak Spanish in the earlier years and in the song, you can hear her say, "Oye tu, ven pa'qua" instead of "ven pa'ca". This song is from her self titled 1989 album, Selena. #LaBamba #SelenaYLosDinos #SelenaLaLeyenda #SelenaQuintanillaPerez

  7. Anyway, a chap from the BBC Spanish Service wrote to Smash Hits about the translation of the lyric, and suggested that "la bamba" is the name of the dance, and perhaps shouldn't be translated as "the goat". He agreed that the lyric made little sense in Spanish or English.

  8. Jings! Jings! Jings! Jings! Los Lobos are still number one with "La bamba".

    Smash Hits gave a very loose translation of the lyric. "To dance the goat you need to have a little gracefulness", and so on.

    If you're bored - perhaps stuck indoors with a fractured wrist - you might tweak the scansion of these mistranslated lines to fit the tune.
