    ko Maori tenei ahau, I am MAORI from Ao te aroa (New Zealand). just found out R.I.P. Freddy Fender. The Maori People are great fans of his music, a lot n lotz of great partyz we have attended n pubs clubs n homes here have all enjoyd & loved his songs & still do massive singalongs. It was a bummer that NZ government of the day decided that he wasnt allowed in. Noreira te Rangatira Baldemar Garza Huerta haere ki te torona o IHOA onga MANO haere haere atu ra.

    I have a sweet memory of Freddy before he made it big. When I was a little girl he would come to our home in Brownsville Texas looking for my dad Rufino Hernandez . My father plays the guitar one of the best for sure. Freddy would come over and he would gently pat me on my head to say hi to me and said to my parents when I grow up that I was going to be very beautiful. As a little girl I remember hiding behind my dad's leg holding on to him I was memorized by Freddy's full head if hair I thought it was neat looking 🤗🤗. Freddy and my father were best if friends we always had music at home my dad always wore his music clothes to go play in concerts . I grew up with people always looking for my dad to meet him to play music with Dad . Having music and hearing dad play you bet I always danced to it I was not shy to dance 💃💃. Great sweet memories of all the great musicians I had the honor of growing up . To this day we still listen to Freddy's jams . 🤗💟 . We miss him all his fans

    City pays homage to a drug addict, drunk, and then names a street after him, no shame.

      @@robertduransongcovers4401 SOY DE JALISCO, MÉXICO. Y ME GUSTA CANTAR SU GRAN ÉXITO WASTED DAYS AND WASTED NIGHTS... CREO QUE SALDIVAROSVALDO1627 ESTA ARDIDO, CELOSO, ETCETERA, ETCETERA, CON FREDDY FENDER, PORQUE SE NECESITAN MUCHOS HUEVOS PARA LEVANTARSE COMO LO HIZO FREDDY FENDER, DE SUS ADICCIONES Y NO SOLO DE SUS ADICCIONES SINO QUE TAMBIÉN POR HACER ESTADO EN LA CARCEL. FUE UN ORGULLO PARA LOS MEXICANOS DEL OTRO LADO DEL RÍO. ES EL ÚNICO DE HABLA HISPANA, QUE LA MÚSICA COUNTRY A PREMIADO, COMO A LOS MEJORES CANTANTES DE COUNTRY QUE LA MAJORIA SON ANGLOSAJONES. POSTDATA. TRANQUILO SEÑOR SALDIVAROSVALDO1627. PROBABLEMENTE USTED, NO SEA DE ASCENDENCIA MEXICANA. VIVA LA MUSICA DE BALDEMAR HUERTA.
