Song

Composer(s)
Ramn Arcusa, Manuel de la Calva
More information
Biography
Originally the song would be sung by Joan Manuel Serrat in Catalan. As Catalan wasn't the official language in Spain Joan Manuel wasn't allowed to sing La, La, La... in Catalan. As he wasn't willing to sing the song in Castellano, Massiel was sent instead.
Massiel's full name is Mara de los Angeles Flix Santamaria Ruis. Massiel wasn't quite able to follow-up La, La, La... and so her international career dwindled after the chart success of the song. She remained quite popular in her own country however, despite the Franco regime of the 60's and early 80's not really liking her. In 1998 Massiel recorded a new version of La, La, La... complete with an obligatory rap in the middle.
