Here is my third song Juego de Ganadores or in english The winners game. On this my friend Micke is doing the vocals he has lived i Colombia for many years. This song was written for a Latinofestival on an other forum - hop you like and any comments are welcome.

Has a nice retro vibe. Seems well recorded, but w/out speaking the language, it's more difficult for me to appreciate.

Cool song.  Well recorded.  I didn't understand more than a few words either.  Good job, eko.  

I thoroughly enjoyed this, eko.  One can enjoy a song without understanding the lyrics if the singer can convey the mood of the song.  Back in the 50's there was a song from Japan that became a big hit on top 40 radio.  Nobody understood the lyrics, but the melody and the voice of the lead singer carried the song.  Ritchie Valens had a hit with "La Bamba" which was sung in Spanish, yet it went on to become on of the classic songs of rock music.
My point being;  you don't always have to understand the lyrics to appreciate a good song and the effort that went into it.  BTW, having lived in Guatemala for two years, I do understand and appreciate the lyrics to this fun, but short, song.

Sounded very good. Enjoyed the listen.

Thnx The Band 19 I don't get it either but I know the English lyrics. Anyway I don't think you have to understand to like or dislike - my first song that I liked was Comdir Adieu in French and i still don't know what it means but I liked it a lot - funny to play on guitar to.

Old55


Cool song.  Well recorded.  I didn't understand more than a few words either.  Good job, eko.

Ah you have lived i Guatemala interesting - was it when you were young or in older days? I do remember the Japanese song and how it was a hit all over the world but I don't remember the words was it Naka****a or something? And yes I think Micke did a wonderful voice on this especially the melody that isn't the way I wrote it at all. 
Thnx Lynn for your comment

I love this... great vibe... cool...

Hi...I liked the overall sound of this and you did a very good job with the mix -- its sounds very warm and nicely spread across the stereo field.  My only nit is that the percussion is not forceful enough -- maybe not high enough in the mix? or eq? -- it sometimes feels as if the song loses the groove in places.
 
Thanks for commenting on my song Til Love Steps In - much appreciated :)
