    I've tried to listen to some of his stuff, but haven't got into it. However this song is fucking awesome. Me and my kids love it.

    EDIT: I'm a big Phish phan and when they played the Festival 8, one of the best side effects was checking out all of the 100 albums that they killed off.

    Got introduced to a lot of cool stuff last OCT. Manu Chao; Clandestino was one of the albums.

    Those are my favorite songs! How can anyone NOT love them? Even my 62-year-old office mate loves them. I had never seen the video before though. Thanks for posting! :D

    I used to love his songs, when I was a teenager (Mano Negra era) but it's not my cup of tea anymore. :oops:

    had two his albums, feelgood stuff, but i couldnt get into it. All a bit same-y.

    saw him live twice though and it was BRILLIANT. especially on a sunny afternoon outdoors show.

    He's very talented, I've seem him a bunch of times, he came from a band called "mano negra" and they were very good, he's been solo for some time and his stuff is pretty good sometimes (not always).
