The nameless song mistery

August 12th, 2007

Thanks to pieces of the puzzle provided by two people, who seem to know it all and never forget anything, I think I cracked the mistery of the nameless song in the Riding for a Living movie by Nitro Snowboards.

Here’s the segment again:

I got Tomo to watch the closing credits carefuly and he came up with a band name that seems to perform during this segment. The Juanitas…. no song title though.

Anja provided the second piece of evidence with the original song by (apparently in Argentina) quite legendary Mercedes Sosa and her song La Estrella Azul written by Carlos Oscar â€œPetecoâ€ Carabajal in 1991 that appears on her Best Of album.

Here’s a sample just to prove it:
Mercedes Sosa – La Estrella Azul (64k)

So I’m calling the nameless song – La Estrella Azul (instrumental) by The Juanitas.

Correct me if I’m wrong though ;)
