Beautiful lyrics and wonderful guitaring.

Rambla pa'qui
rambla pa'llá
esa es la rumba de Barcelona
Rambla pa'qui
rambla pa'llá
esa es la rumba de Barcelona

Manu Chao's origins are Basque but he was born in Paris and now calls Barcelona his home. These disparate musical influences have shaped a unique sound. His live album Radio Bemba Sound System has some songs from Manu Negra, a group influenced by Spanish anarchism. He is a huge fan of Diego Maradona, for his football and politics. His song La Vida Tombola is a tribute to the Argentinian legend.
