[edit] Edits

I took out the lyrics, and most of the commentary, as it seems to be almost entirely original research, and basically admits to being a copyvio from [1]. However, it appears to have been taken down from that site, and google returns nothing. The other referenced site also appears to be down. Nearly the whole article was created by User:Irighti, as his only contribution. The information was certainly helpful, but needs verifiable sources and needs to look more encyclopedic. I'm not sure about including the lyrics, put them back if you think it's justifiable under the Wikipedia:Lyrics guidelines. I know almost nothing about this song, but hopefully we can get some actual references and build a good article for it. Thanks. --NormalAsylum (t) 07:10, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Beerfest?

When the boys in beerfest get plastered together for the first time, they seem to be singing "Cielito Lindo", albeit poorly. Should this be added?

[edit] Refrain is different

The refrain listed here is totally different from the one I learned in school as a child --at least the English part. I learned:

Ay, ay, ay, ay Gone now is sadness! Your flashing eyes, They bring paradise They bring gladness, Cielito Lindo!

Of course, I'm more partial to the lyrics I learned. Just who changed them, though? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.3.137.73 (talk) 00:08, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
