Do you know a popular and typical folk song in Spain?

Question

song in spanish of course

Answer 1

Of course.This is a childrens song that we sing outside. All kids, boys and girls make a circle, hand by hand. The circle they form is  "el corro" so they start turning around in one direction, and can change direction with a chosen quew, and also they have to enact the words of the song below, and represent it while moving "en corro".

  

“Al corro de la patata

Comeremos ensalada

Lo que comen los señores

Naranjitas y limones

Achupé, achupé

Sentadita me quedé”.

The circle of the potato

We shall all eat salad

Eat what the lords eat

Little oranges  and lemons

Achupé, achupé

Sitting I remained ".

  Enjoy it

Answer 2

Debsh....I don't really know where did you get those "songs" but I've never heard them[and I'm spanish].....and somo of them are rude.....so....I don't know if you know what have you written here....its better if you don't know....

the first answer is good ^ ^;I sang it when I was young....so its ok.

other person said something of sara montiel....that's not correct.it's folk.....but the children really dont know of the existence of this woman and her songs.

I sang these songs:

Habia una vez un barquito chiquitito

habia una vez un barquito chiquitito

que no podía,que no podía que no podía navegar.

pasaron un, dos, tres,

cuatro , cinco, seis semanas,

pasaron un, dos, tres,

cuatro, cinco, seis semanas,

y aquel barquito y aquel barquito

y aquel barquito navegó.

y si esta historia, parece corta,

volveremos, volveremos, a empezar,

había una vez un barquito chiquitito (bis)

que no sabia, que no podía, que no podia, navegar..(and goes again)

and this other:

el patio de mi casa es particular

cuando llueve se moja como los demas

agachate y vuelvete a agachar

que los agachaditos no saben bailar

H I J K L M N A[spelled in spanish...obviously]

que si tu no me quieres otro novio me querrá

H I J K L M N O

que si tu no me quieres,otro novio tendré yo

chocolate, molinillo

corre corre que te pillo!!!!!!!!!!

a estirar a estirar;que el demonio va a pasar

and this one....when it rains:

que llueva que llueva

la virgen de la cueva

los pajaritos cantan

las nubes se levantan

que sí,que no

que caiga un chaparron

con azucar y turron

que rompa los cristales de la estacion

y los mios no porque son de cartón

there are so many songs...but they're long to write;and I dont remember all the songs;so these were my favourites ^^

Answer 5

its not  FOLK song but it was a fun song we all used to sing in many spanish schools;

the chorus was just making these noises ; like of the tune, then this was the song, there are loads of variations of it;

'las ninas de mi clase ya no van en la piscina,

porque dicen que han visto una polla submarina'

chorus noises

'los ninos de mi clase ya no van en avion,

porque dicen que han visto un marciano maricon'

chorus noises

it goes on forever, everyone knew diffrent versions :-)

or another song we used to sing was;

Una sardina (1 person would sing this)

una sardina (everyone else would echo it aftrewoulds)

Dos sardinas (1st person again)

Dos sardinas (everuone else again)

tres sardinas (1st)

tres sardinas (everyone else)

Y una ????? (1st person) they can say whatever they want by the question marks

and then they say a name and that person tyakes over the 1st person bit.....

i dont actually know what a folk song is........maybe if i knew i could tell you one...
