ok i didnt want to ask but i cant speak spanish so im finding it hard to find this song on google. i think its an older song but its been remixed alot. theres something in it that sounds like 'asi se rosa' or something vaguely like that, its chanted over and over. then in one of the remixes i know theres an english bit that says " i wanna kiss you i wanna hold you, i never wanna let you go, how much i would give, how much i would give to get a kiss from you" its driving me insane :oops: and its a pretty well known song which is more annoying for me since i cant find it. thanks :?

There's a bunch of whistling going on, too, right?

I've heard several different versions of it, and I believe one of them is named:

Pito (I'll Never Go Back to Georgia) by Joe Cuba (I got the name and artist from the Crooklyn soundtrack.)

I cannot find the song text either but I speak spanish and first I found the text a bit puzzling. "Pito" means "whistle" here but I only knew it for "willy" or "fag", and there is a version with a line that sounds to me like "súbete (go up) la vágina". Maybe it was just my dirty phantasies. I wonder what all this may have to do with Georgia?
You can listen to a not particularly great version at

Welcome rueda. I'm guessing that you are a rueda fan. I have lots of fun doing rueda as well.

Your probably hearing the remake done by Sonora Carruseles most of the time in the clubs. There's a sample here: Music Directory (http://www.dance-forums.com/md.php?mode0=viewsong&u=435) The versions by Joe Cuba and Fania are better. :banana:

Yes, I am a rueda fan. Do you know the wikibook about rueda?

It needs some work, but I like the videos.

After listening again to "El pito" in different versions and a couple of times I could not find that presumed "dirty talk" again. Probably it figured in a song that was played right after it in a club, and I mixed it up.

El Pito, "The Whistle", one of the first songs I heard when I was learning to dance salsa. A guy I knew would give beginners' lessons before the salsa dance party and would ALWAYS play it! I like the Sonora Caruseles version and Ihave heard both Spanish & English versions of it.

i know theres an english bit that says " i wanna kiss you i wanna hold you, i never wanna let you go, how much i would give, how much i would give to get a kiss from you"

Just came across this old thread. In case anyone's still around, the version with the English lyrics above is:

El pito (Asi se goza) - Isidro Infante & La Elite (Kevin Ceballo on vocals I think)
Listen to a clip at http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00004R7T5 (track #5)
It's originally from the album "Licencia Para Enganar"
