What are the chances anyone could identify this song?

[dudsville]

I have an ear worm and would love to look up the song on Spotify but I can't place it.

I think it's a Mexican song. Probably 20-30 + years old. It's sung in Spanish. I don't remember the words. It's got something like bell trilling or a cow bell being played in it. The rythm is upbeat and the words go to the rythm of da da da da da... da da da ... da da da da da... da da da.

Anyone have any ideas?

The only one that comes to mind is Gipsy Kings Bamboleo lol

Guantanamera? It's Cuban though, not Mexican.

I just tried that, thanks Helga, reminded me that I like the gypsy kings, but is not the song!

La Bamba?

That's also nice woolybacks and I've saved it to my list. But it's not the song.

Thanks sisters, this song I'm thinking of doesn't have 50's vibe.

My oh is looking at me oddly as I keep playing tracks.

This is an impossibletask isn't it!

Oh does it shout something like samba! Dejona! at the end of the trumpet phase?

La bamba?

Oh cross post

I think the cow bell is really key to the intro. I'm going to google songs with cow bells. Feel I'm falling down a rabbit how with that though!

Maybe cat quest! !!

Bellini Samba de Janiero was the one I immediately thought of

Mambo no 5?

I just googled and it comes up on you tube

There's such a thing as atop 10 cowbell songs list.

Buena Vista Social Club?
Cuban rather than Mexican but could it be something by them?

That one?

Ok. So it's more relaxed than the samba no 5. So by upbeat I think I mean calmly happy.

No, not that one, and it's not buena vista. I now know that it's a bit like the song "lowrider".

Drat I thought i had it. And now dh is singing it ........

Is there tech for singing a tune and it identifies the song?

Ha ha cat!

Mambo number 5

Yes that well know Spanish-sung song which is 20-30 years old

Any of these OP?
