Review

This song was part of the movie ONCE UPON A TIME IN MEXICO . Antonio Banderas sings the song.

The video starts showing us his guitar very closely. He plays with other two guitarrists. They are in a crowded bar, at night. Suddenly Antonio gets on the bar and continues playing very passionately there. Some robbers take the place. Antonio protects the people hitting the delicuent. The singer gets down and continues playinglike nothing happened. They even use the guitars like drums for a moment. The crowd ends up astonished by the performance.

It is a very easy song to learn as it repeats the same lyrics a lot.
