Cuban Love Song addendum: Nosotros

03/07/08

Concerning my Cuban Valentine special, Eduardo Tavel wrote:

I believe you should have included "Nosotros' a beautiful love song.

I found several instances of the song. The first is from Elena Burke, a sixties singer whom I have to admit to not liking very much. It's not that she's a bad singer; I just don't find any of her songs particularly interesting- they have a sort of lounge-act feel to them. I'll put it here anyways in case that's the one Mr. Tavel was talking about.

Better is the Cha cha-bolero from Orquesta Aragon. Rival Cha cha group Fajardo has a live version.

Fajardo:






The only albums my mother owned were by Lucho Gatica, a Chilean singer popular in the fifties. He sings in the hyper-romantic Latin-American style distinguishable by its breathiness. A nice, guitar-driven song called Nosotros showed up in my search.
