What is your favourite song?


My favourite would be "Have You been to Baia Donald?"
All the changes and splits of that one character are so funny.

I also love "You Belong To My Heart" but I don't know name of the singer..any body knows ??

reply

You Belong To My Heart was sang by Dora Luz

Baia was my favorite. Gorgeous! Do you know who sings it in the film? Anxious to know!

reply

I like the music that plays in the desert near the end. You know, with the cactuses.

You wanna know my favorite song? "Os quindins de Iaiá", the sequence where Donald and Joe Carioca were in Baiá dancing with the people. I wish there's an mp3 of it. If there is, could someone send it to me? [email protected]

Anyway, I have a link to the sequence if anyone wanted to watch it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ya0otUSGYaA&NR

I also have a question about the sequence. What response did Joe Carioca say after Donald asked, "Who is that guy?"?

reply

Anybody?

Can anyone answer my question?

The video was taken down :(
I don't know what he said but it sounded like malendro or maledro.

The spanish version says gallito which means cockerel.

I think all of them rock! I found some songs from it on the "Saludos Amigos" soundtrack on iTunes, but they're done by different artists, not straight from the film. I hope that perhaps iTunes will release the whole soundtrack one day.

Me too.

The correct word is "malandro". It's a slang word that can mean "criminal" (a thief, a pimp or even a murderer), "a lazy or irresponsible person" or, in a more romantic approach, a poet, an artist of someone that knows how to enjoy life (I suppose this is the meaning in the film).

The girl who sings "Os Quindins de Iaiá" is Aurora Miranda, sister of Carmem Miranda, who was very famous in Hollywood in the 40s and 50s.

I saw the closed captioned on my video one day, and it says melandro, whatever that means.

reply

'Melandro' isn't found at any of the online translation or dictionary sites I checked, in either Spanish or Portugese, so it probably means you spotted a closed-captioned typo of 'malandro'!

my favorite's lilongo....

I believe that the music in the desert with the cactuses is "Jesusita en chihuahua"

"Os quindins de Iaiá" was very fun. I especially liked the part where, i think, it shows two guys dancing and they suddenly burst into a two roosters in a cock fight. The instruments and imagery is simply amazing!

"The Three Caballeros" song is fun too, but personally i like the bit of "Ay Jalilsco No Te Rajes" that Panchito sings at the end of the song. He has such a great voice; it's thrilling! :)

I like the Baia numbers too. Just got back from Brazil. Totally neat place. It's this movie that got me intrigued about South America. Now having been to Brazil, Argentina, and Chile, I can see what a magical place it is. The movie captured the many special qualities of the people who live there. I love South America!

reply

I love those songs, too. I wish to have mp3s of them, and I want the Disney Three Caballeros version of "Os quindins de Iaiá".

reply

I love them all too!! I once found a close version of "Os quindins de Iaia" on google about a yr ago. I wonder if this soundtrack was ever released on record at least?

reply

Lilongo is the best... i can play it on my fiddle :D

"You Belong To My Heart". I've liked it ever since I saw this as a first-run movie in 1944.

reply

I love "Baia." It's up there with "Aquarela do Brasil" from Saludos Amigos. I love the animation and the music in both movies.
