Farin Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 just like Layla, Samba Pa Ti is just another commercial jingle for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLizard Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 Decent, if standard, ten. I expected more people would know Budgie, but I'm glad some who didn't decided to listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted January 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 just like Layla, Samba Pa Ti is just another commercial jingle for me Actually I don't think that "Samba Pa Ti" is a terribly commercial release at all. Maybe in Europe? For Santana, his equivalent to Layla (at least here) would probably "Oye Como Va" or "Black Magic Woman". A couple of my least favorite Santana songs. Tim, like I said before, I can't figure out why I didn't know Budgie before. That was the kind of music I listened to at that time, and I listened to a lot of music. Oh well, I heard, I liked it, and I voted for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c_s_1987 Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 So many great 90s songs, and none of them make the top ten, again. Oh well, at least numbers 3 and 10 are a pleasant surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 just like Layla, Samba Pa Ti is just another commercial jingle for me "Layla" a commercial jingle? Well, maybe now it is, after it´s been used as a soundtrack everywhere for everything... you might be fed up with it. But it surely was an amazing song back in the early seventies (and probably still is, though I´ve heard it so much myself too... ) "Samba Pa Ti" is the beginning of what they called "fusion". Not my favorite style but I still admit it changed trends in music... But I know what you mean, "La Bamba", for instance, is a song I hate and I always did, it was already overheard when I was a child.

For Santana, his equivalent to Layla (at least here) would probably "Oye Como Va" or "Black Magic Woman". A couple of my least favorite Santana songs. I think more like here in Germany... I'm not really sure, but I think it was some kind of cheese that used it extensively in their tv commercials... everytime I hear the riff I expect some deep male voice to say "hmmmmmm, that tastes good" :wacky: "Layla" a commercial jingle? Well, maybe now it is, after it´s been used as a soundtrack everywhere for everything... you might be fed up with it. But it surely was an amazing song back in the early seventies (and probably still is, though I´ve heard it so much myself too... ) no it was used as the main jingle for Opel (Vauxhall in UK) in the late 80s to late 90s everytime I hear Layla it IS an Opel commercial for me (I bet the advertisers are mighty proud of themselves now ) for both Layla and Samba Pa Ti I'm not saying that they're bad songs (which they aren't)... I just can't possibly enjoy them because of these associations, you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
