Hard one to link to something in English is the word huella. Here meaning footprint.

It shares a common ancestor with the english word, and common surname Fuller.  

A Fuller was someone who pounded cloth by using their feet.

Hollar came from follar which comes from the latin fullare.

Review

What a lovely happy song by Maldita Nerea; it's an example of the sweet, innocent Spain that I love.  No need for explicit lyrics or videos at all.

It's the old story of the boy getting it together to ask the girl to dance.  She's a beauty already and a bigger one in the making, and just needs to be asked.

Will he be too shy, or go for it?  From the song we know she'd be receptive, if she is just asked.
