Bandido (song)

"Bandido" (Spanish pronunciation: [banˈdiðo], "Bandit"), written by José Luis Abel and composed by Raúl Orellana and Jaime Stinus, was Spain's entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1990, performed by the sister duo Azúcar Moreno. It was covered by Aşkın Nur Yengi, Turkish singer as "Zehir Gibisin" ("You're like a poison" in Turkish) in her second album, Hesap Ver (Explain in Turkish), which was released in 1991.

Internal selection

Televisión Española (TVE), the national broadcaster of Spain, used an internal selection process to choose Azúcar Moreno, who were becoming popular by combining traditional Spanish flamenco roots with urban contemporary musical styles, in this case electronic music. The song chosen to go with them to Zagreb, Croatia (then Yugoslavia), "Bandido", was produced by Raúl Orellana, one of the most respected dance music producers in Spain. The studio recording includes the spoken intro "Ladies and gentlemen, it's showtime at the Apollo Theater. Everybody, the hardest-working man in show business", sampled from James Brown's 1963 album Live at the Apollo.

Bandido (supergroup)

Bandido were American Spanish-language supergroup albums during the 1980s. They released three studio albums, and a compilation album. All of which charted in Chicago, along the west coast, and internationally in Germany, Venezuela, and Spain.

Their frontman Al Hurricane, as well as his son Al Hurricane, Jr., spoke fondly of their time with the band, but they also reiterated their desire to return to their New Mexico Country-Western Ranchera-loving audience; as they felt that their new sound drifted them away from New Mexicans. The three Bandido albums comprise Al Hurricane's twelfth, fourteenth, and fifteenth albums. Between the first and second Bandido releases Al Hurricane, Sr. and Jr. released 15 Exitos Rancheros alongside Tiny Morrie.

Song (airline)

Song, LLC was a low-cost air service within an airline brand owned and operated by Delta Air Lines from 2003 to 2006.

Song's main focus was on leisure traffic between the northeastern United States and Florida, a market where it competed with JetBlue Airways. It also operated flights between Florida and the West Coast, and from the Northeast to the west coast.

Song's aircraft were fitted with leather seats and free personal entertainment systems at every seat, with audio MP3 programmable selections, trivia games that could be played against other passengers, a flight tracker, and satellite television (provided by the DISH Network). Song offered free beverages, but charged for meals and liquor. Both brand-name snack boxes and healthy organic meals were offered. The flight safety instructions were sung or otherwise artistically interpreted, depending on the cabin crew. In addition to crew uniforms designed by Kate Spade, customized cocktails created by nightlife impresario Rande Gerber and an in-flight exercise program designed by New York City fitness guru David Barton, the airline created its own distinct mark in the industry. The Song brand was placed on more than 200 flights a day which carried over ten million passengers.
