Gloria Estefan and Miami Sound Machine-Conga

  Billboard雜誌九月初(2020)挑選出50首橫跨時空,最受歡迎的拉丁歌曲,從阿根廷到西班牙,從1920年代到 2018年,其中有墨西哥歌謠、古巴之聲、哥倫比亞莎莎舞曲到現代的巴洽塔舞曲,選曲以歷史性的知名歌曲為主,這些歌一直到現在都吸引歌迷們跟唱並隨之起舞

  "Besame Mucho"" Guantanamera "之後,介紹另一首排行榜上名次不錯的歌"Conga",這一首英語版的嘉年華歌曲,是80年代因美國電台對古巴宣傳需要而生,"Conga"的作曲人是Miami Sound Machine的鼓手Enrique Garcia,此曲成功地在世紀之交點燃對拉丁音樂的喜愛,更重要的是它證明原即來自古巴的拉丁歌后與Miami Sound Machine 合唱團不需去改變就進入了美國流行音樂界主流

  Gloria Estefan本名Gloria Fajordo 1957年出生於古巴哈瓦那,在美國佛羅里達州長大,她和先生Emillio Estefan組成Miami Sound Machine合唱團,1990320日夫妻倆曾因發生嚴重車禍受傷,但後來幸運痊癒

 Gloria Estefan and Miami Sound Machine暢銷曲很多,在歷年暢銷歌星排行榜獲得第75名,"Conga"198510月推出,最高獲得第10

Conga

 

Come on, shake your body baby,

Do the conga

I know you can't control yourself any longer

Come on, shake your body baby,

Do the conga

I know you can't control yourself any longer.

 

Come on, shake your body baby,

Do the conga

I know you can't control yourself any longer

Feel the rhythm of the music getting stronger

Don't you fight it till you've tried it

Do the conga beat

 

Everybody gather 'round now

Let your body feel the heat.

Don't you worry if you can't dance

Let the music move your feet.

It's the rhythm of the island

And like sugarcane, so sweet.

If you want to do the conga

You've got to listen to the beat.

 

Come on, shake your body baby,

Do the conga

I know you can't control yourself any longer

Feel the rhythm of the music getting stronger

Don't you fight it till you've tried it

Do the conga beat

 

Feel the fire of desire

As you dance the night away.

'Cos tonight we're gonna party

Till we see the break of day.

Better get yourself together

And hold on to what you got.

Once the music hit your system

There's no way you're gonna stop.

 

Come on, shake your body baby,

Do the conga

I know you can't control yourself any longer

Feel the rhythm of the music getting stronger

Don't you fight it till you've tried it

Do the conga beat

 

Come on, shake your body baby,

Do the conga

I know you can't control yourself any longer

Feel the rhythm of the music getting stronger

Don't you fight it till you've tried it,

Do the conga

Come on, shake your body baby,

Do the conga

I know you can't control yourself any longer

Feel the rhythm of the music getting stronger

Don't you fight it till you've tried it

Do the conga beat

Come on, shake your body baby,

Do the conga
