I’m surprised people haven’t heard this song before. It’s one of those you know even if you don’t know when you heard it from as if it were embedded in your memory since childhood
It was so popular that it was even featured on the news a few times. There were people taking lessons, there was talk about it being too racy, and there were even large groups dancing at festivals. :)
Lambada (the dance) was a big hit in itself, but this song was NOT a big hit in the US. At all. It only got to #48 on the hot 100 here (so it didn't get all the airplay on top 40 countdowns and regular airplay). I'm not surprised he'd not heard it.
He is american, they may see this dancing not that apropiate for 2 young ones and even mixing races is still a taboo in some parts of his country, I bet he got surprised, but for we latinos is like “aaaw, dance the crap out of that floor, kids!” 😁
Realmente foi foda. Uma das grandes intérpretes do nosso país. Minha esperança era depositada em meu conterrâneo Gabriel Diniz, que infelizmente se foi muitíssimo novo. Um carisma que teria sua repercussão internacional como Luis Fonsi atualmente liderando o cenário latino pelo mundo
This was a huge hit in Finland when I was about 6. This is a song from my childhood :) Also, those two kids dancing in the video are/were professional dancers and they danced together. I cannot remember their names anymore, I did a research on them years ago.

En Realidad la canción original es del Grupo Boliviano "Los Kjarkas" 🇧🇴❤️ y es una canción Florklorica, seria muy lindo que la escuches también, saludos desde Cochabamba - Bolivia. 👋❤️
Gracias por responder 🤗 escucha "llorando se fue de los Kjarkas " así se llama la canción, es un ritmo Florklorico si te animas a escuchar canciones suyas sería muy bueno, te recomiendo tiempo al tiempo 👋😋 saludos.
I was the "weird black girl" in my circle of friends dancing and singing to this years ago. My friends, black and white, weren't raised with a variety of music like I was, so I consider myself to be blessed. What about "Las Ketchup" (aka The Ketchup Song) by Asereje? You may recognize a certain rap song that they blended within it. There's also "La Macarena" by Los Del Rio. It was popular and often made fun of, but a lot of people who made fun of it like it. I like it! :D
You got it mixed up, the song is called 'Asereje' and the group is called 'Las Ketchup'. And yes, the lyrics were based on how the song 'Rapper's delight', by The Sugarhill Gang, sounded like to Spanish speakers (at least for those who don't speak English). I think it is what you call 'mumbling'?
J, you are the best! The love of music is so uniting especially in this time that we are living in. Listening and watching you take in all the unique and different styles of music is heart warming. Keep it up!
This band Kaoma also stole this song from the Bolivian group Los Kjarkas and Kaoma got sued for it. The name of this song is "Llorando se fue" NOT Lambada, and it's by the Bolivian folkloric group Los Kjarkas
Do you see those kids...? This was us in Iran in the 80s, post Islamic revolution! This whole BetaMax and VHS video of Lambada got smuggled to Iran with many dance lessons and we would learn how to dance it in the secret parties as kids and teens (you know music, dance and practically LIFE had become forbidden since the revolution in 1979). This was THE viral dance in Iran before Hammer, Macarena, or Ketchup! This was the soundtrack to our lives in the 80s! I remember me and my childhood friend dancing to this from probably 4 to when we were 9-10. The music and dance, as you also pointed out, just gave us life and a reason to go on in those dark scary days which less or more have lasted for around 40 years till this day. This was fun to watch and a great reaction, thanks...

This video brings a lot of good memories. In 1989-1990 I was a student at the University of Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 and was attending a Portuguese course. Kaoma came to the University for a student concert. It was a lot of fun.
So adorable to see those stiff europeans swiveling their stiff hips. And they would 'count' the steps! 😂 i'm originally from the carribean so the very idea of counting steps whilst feeling the music, was alien to me. Ffwd some 30 years(!)and I'm as european as smoking cigarettes indoors
Wooooow!! This was a banger!!! Back in the day, and YES J-LO barrowed it lol, this is my new favorite video 😂 great song gotta looooove!! Brazilians 😍.. Forgot when poppa-duke stepping and how all it took was a lil mama for ol' piepie to be like "its all good noow lol girl!, have a good time" and don't forget to come home late tomorrow morning!!" Lol lol 😂 😂 😂
I've loved this happy sassy tune and video for ages, and I get up and dance each time. Watching you watch it and getting and grooving to the joyous vibe of it all is fantastic!
It's originally from BOLIVIA. It's originally in Spanish, buy Kaoma made it worldwide known, in Portuguese. But either or I love it! And yes JLo made a cover for it in English...
An absolute classic. Love it after all these years. So sad that the lady singing lead vocals was killed so brutally, placed in a car and set on fire in her later years.
My word, this brings up so many memories! I remember being a little girl, whenever this song would come up, there would be no force to stop me dancing "lambada"! Oh, the childhood! :)
I'm so glad you did this. In 1989 I was 9 too living in Ecuador and Lambda was banging. I love dancing to it. Music is a big thing for us latinos, it does sooth our souls, everyone is happy when theyydancing.
OMG I suggested it yesterday and you did it! Awesome! Yes, it is the song from which JLo got On The Floor. Lambada by Kaoma is also not the very original song, the original song is from Bolivia by Los Kjarkas, and it sounds very different because it is Andean music. Still, I suggested this one because it is iconic and it basically invented a whole genre of music.
Brother, bringing back memories, i was in Venezuela, Margarita Island, at a club called the mosquito coast, dancing to this in the wee hours of the morning, good times...
Thanks it’s great to hear the Lambada! I was 38 when this came out. The Lambada took the world by storm. I went to Brazil last year to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Lambada! Fantastic ! Brazil is paradise!
Saludos a mis hermanos Basileños , la Lambada es de mis canciones Favoritas, deberian reaccionar a ritmos Colombianos o a Tropicales como la Salsa o Cumbia saludos
Thank you for making this video, your reaction is amazing! This was one of my favorite songs growing up. I was so sad to learn about the Loalwa Braz, the singer's, tragic murder. May she live forever through her music.
That was the way it was marketed in the West. I remember the Lambada craze in the netherlands. So funny because they all felt like they were part of something 'special'...yet accesible to everybody. There was nothing forbidden about it. That was just to make white people feel 'naughty' when they try and do the Lambada on some cruise. I remember me and my cousin learning to dance to it and then my mother and our aunts would say:"go on! Show everybody what you learned. It's soooo cute!" We HATED that. We flat out refused after that one time. Felt like being a performing monkey😂
OMG! I spent the Summer of '89 in Europe. This song, Madonna's Like A Prayer and Fine Young Cannibals' She Drives Me Crazy, bring me right back to that wonderful time. It's great to see younger folks enjoying Old Skool music. Thanks for the entertaining videos.

I was 9 years old too and I just turned 40! And yes JLO got it from this one , you got that right! But I love both songs! Now this song is in Portuguese, sounds of Brazil 🇧🇷. Awesome song! It had a movie too, The Forbidden Dance 💃🏻(1990). I’m new to your channel and I already love your videos! You’re too cool 😎
I haven't heard this in so long! My dad had this on VHS with Dançando Lambada! I taught a couple of the boys at musical theatre camp how to do this with me, I did the back bends and everything!
Me encanta ese ritmo, me recuerdo mi niñez. Aqui en Colombia fue muy famoso hace ya unos cuantosss años. Aún lo escucho y se me hace la piel de gallina 1989... Antes que Jlo
So i had to do this: the Kaoma version was FIRE back in the day. But i gotta rep n shout out LOS KJARKAS for the original composition, both music and lyrics. Los Kjarkas (kahr-kas) are a Bolivian folk group, this particular rhythm is known as Caporal and it originated in Bolivia (yes ppl from all over dance it, but dassit). After Kaoma dropped this hit, Los Kjarkas went to court and won the rights to the intellectual property. So *any* version of this beat (Kaoma, JLo, Don Omar) is thanks to them. ❤💛💚 ua-cam.com/video/xKau76yc4HE/v-deo.html
The "Unlikes" are from people that couldn't dance the Lambada back in the 80's

This was the Despacito of the 80's lol
hell no
Despacito is trash and annoying
There was a big copyright fight between Kaoma and Los Kjarkas about this song. Finally Los Kjarkas won the fight as they recorded the song on 1981.
No, no, no, no.
Maybe only with the new technology they have in this times though back than harder to get it and look for it

The original song is from Los Kjarkas - Llorando Se Fue 1981. It came it years before this. The original song is from Bolivia and is in Spanish.

This is exactly what I'm saying. Los Kjarkas took this band to court about this, and won of course.

Nice to know after all these years
Hey i didn't know that but i search it i found a video, it's different... You're right ... I think He should see the original too...

I was 9 years old too and I just turned 40! And yes JLO got it from this one , you got that right! But I love both songs! Now this song is in Portuguese, sounds of Brazil 🇧🇷. Awesome song! It had a movie too, The Forbidden Dance 💃🏻(1990). I’m new to your channel and I already love your videos! You’re too cool 😎
You have to see "danza kuduro" it's like a cover ...
Tabú is the one you are thinking of
@@mariaprado391 sorry, yes you're right.. tabu from Don Omar... Thanks for helping me remember the correct
I haven't heard this in so long! My dad had this on VHS with Dançando Lambada! I taught a couple of the boys at musical theatre camp how to do this with me, I did the back bends and everything!
React to the original "Oye Como Va" By Tito Puente
You are very lucky man cause you dont miss this song before you die. It is masterpiece!!!!
React to "Taboo" by Don Omar Is the same song but in spanish
It's the sequel to this vid Jamel just watched, of when the kids grew up! "Ideally!" #AwesomeVid
Me encanta ese ritmo, me recuerdo mi niñez. Aqui en Colombia fue muy famoso hace ya unos cuantosss años. Aún lo escucho y se me hace la piel de gallina 1989... Antes que Jlo
Going to go ahead and throw Peter Gabriels STEAM in the hat again. :)
Thanks you so much for listening.... I love your reaction.... You should listen to Kaoma- Dacando Lambada...You will love it
LISONJEADO EM SABER QUE VCS GOSTAM DA NOSSA MÚSICA ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Memories sweet memories..i was 12 years when i learn to dance true this!! Thk you! 🥰🇷🇴
You should react to taboo-don omar, it's kinda like a sequel of this! Good vids dude!!
And this was a hit on Cuba 🇨🇺 too we dance this for a long time. Memories 🤩
So i had to do this: the Kaoma version was FIRE back in the day. But i gotta rep n shout out LOS KJARKAS for the original composition, both music and lyrics. Los Kjarkas (kahr-kas) are a Bolivian folk group, this particular rhythm is known as Caporal and it originated in Bolivia (yes ppl from all over dance it, but dassit). After Kaoma dropped this hit, Los Kjarkas went to court and won the rights to the intellectual property. So *any* version of this beat (Kaoma, JLo, Don Omar) is thanks to them. ❤💛💚
