Hello, any help anyone can offer me would be appreciated:
Sitting in a cafe one day, I heard a vietnamese version of Paul Simon's "El
Condor Pasa". It sounded so beautiful (I've always thought the language was
very musical) that I figured I'd go look up the words on the internet.
Unfortunately, I was not able to find this on any vietnamese sites (although
there are plenty of recordings of Vietnamese people singing the english
words!)
Sorry, I don't know the artist or the album or anything. I don't know very
much vietnamese at all, but the song began with "toi hon la..." which sounds
like it corresponds to Simon's lyric "I'd rather be...", so I think it's a
direct translation.
Please respond to me directly; I don't subscribe to the list. Thanks in
advance.
