Of course this song has been around a lot longer but for the last 30 something years every time I hear this song I think of "Pee Wee's Big Adventure", LOL!

About the 7:00 minute, you said you'd give it a 10 cause it was something you could dance to. I about dropped my jaw because on Dick Clark's American Bandstand, he would ask the people to rate a newly played song & they would respond on every show with, "I'd give it a 10. It has a good beat & is easy to dance to." ICONIC LINES! :-D

"Tequila" went to number 1 on the charts in March, 1958. I was 6 months old! It's a great song that people are still listening to, 64 years later!

This song reminds me of Pee Wee Herman's "Tequila Dance" Everytime I hear it. It's a hoot 🤣

Lots of instrumental hits back in the day. Have you hit Green Onions from Booker T and the MG's? Can't recommend it highly enough.

Awesome choice of song -> video clip from "American Bandstand" with Dick Clark. A great throwback to my early childhood. Tequila!

There is a sequel to this song called “To Much Tequila!” Yes and Green Onions by Booker T and the MGs is a classic

The saxophonist is a man named Danny Flores a Mexican American who also wrote the song "Tequilla." He was known as the "Godfather of Latino Rock." He was the only Hispanic in the group. This song went to number one in 1958 on Billboards top 100.

LOL I never knew this song went back so far.... They are still playing this song all the time at backyard dances and BBQ... And when it is time to say Tequila the entire Party Yells OUT!!!!

Back in High school we had modern dance in PE. Me and my friends did a routine to this song. 😁

Please react to Woolly Bully by Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs it’s another banger song from the 60’s that will make you wanna dance!

Oh man, I cannot hear this song without getting up and doing the Pee Wee Dance. (Don't have the platform boots, though.)

The Champs WOW!

The big instrument on the right of the screen is a double bass violin, or just an upright bass. It was what many bands used before the electric bass guitar was invented and widely used.

This was before electronification. In 1958 I was 10. Didn't even have a transistor radio yet.

This was one of the great instrumental bands from the 50's-60's. The Champs are an American rock & roll band & most famous for their Latin-tinged instrumental "Tequila". They also did "Limbo Rock" & "El Rancho Rock". You should also check out The Ventures music. They had a lot of great hits such as "Walk, Don't Run", "Telstar", "Lonely Bull" & "Hawaii 5-O" theme. The group The Surfaris had a big hit with "Wipe Out". It was common for these instrumental groups to play each others songs.

So cute. Fun song!!

Put this jam on and watch my Uncle from Mexico dance! And probably get into a fight too.

Do "Classical Gas" next. Another classic.

Love this fun song :) The studio version is a little less fuzzy

This is the only song I'll sing at karaoke

Wow! 😳that is cool

One of the first guitar songs I learned! BY EAR!

You should listen to the Ventures too. They have a lot of great hits.

Huge hit!

This was one Bill Haley added to his live set when touring with the Comets

Tequila!!!!

The group seal and Croft and glenn Campbell were in the group they got to anything else great song in history

My choice of drink when I used to drink. ❤❤❤❤❤

I am not sure what year this came out, I probably was not born yet, or I was a little toddler. I can remember my Mom holding me when I was little girl and dancing around and around the house to music like this. Maybe that is why I love music so much :). In the late 60's and early 70's American Bandstand and Soul Train were my two favorite shows growing up. It was so neat to be able to see all these groups play live or watch people dance and learn all the new steps. Knowing how to dance was an important skill to learn back in the day. And there were always new steps and moves coming out. Its a shame people don't do that any more it was really fun! This was a really wonderful video, great pic.

Love this song but the studio version wouldve been waay better. ❤

Being a 90's kid I remember this song being played in the epic scene in the Sandlot movie. Lol

This is from "Bandstand'" which was very popular in the day.

Still have this original motorcycle album.......last i heard, the guy that said "tequilla" still lives in Westminster Calif. (orange country)

Thx! Great reaction! You might like Louis Prima “Night train!” Sam Butera on Sax!

You should check out Glenn Campbell doing Wipeout on live tv! He started out doing rock and roll music to earn a living. He was the guitarist on the album.

Great !!

The Champs later included Texans Seals and Crofts who would make it huge on their own a decade later. Also a guitarist named Glen Campbell was along for awhile

That Rabbit Hole!!!! 💪💪💪🤣🤣🤣🤣🤩

We used to ice skate to this all the time.

This played all the time back in the day. Play Tommy Edwards, It’s All In The Game. As popular.❤❤❤

They were one of the best...you should here Cara Mia, and the group Voiceplay (my mother told me) and Geoff Castilluchi sings the Headless Horseman acapella

This spawned a whole load of cocktail/drink instrumental tracks !!

That large instrument is a stand up bass...

You Guys Made My Day!!!!! This Is My Favorite Karaoke Song To Sing!!!! One Word, Three Times, You Can Sing It Any Condition!!!! Love Your Channel Keep Up The Great Work!!!!

That’s some serious sax !

I was 11 when it came out!!!

A staple for the karaoke crowd.

I remember when American Bandstand had part of this song for theim theme song.Later Barry Manilow wrote another theme song for Bandstand.

RIP. RONNIE SPECTOR

Best 1 word song everrrrr

Surprisingly this song also makes tequila taste great.

We all knew all the words.

Back in the day, we were sucking on lemons, licking salt, & chugging shots of "Tequila", of course.

10 from me!!

Gets you dancing 💃!! There were a lot of fantastic instrumental hits back in the 60’s & 70’s !! Booker T & the MG’s were another great group as was Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass 💖🎺

I’ve always thought it would be great to do this song for karaoke but no one ever has it. 😂 Just standing there and saying tequila every now and then would be hysterical!

Hi Shawn and Mel what a fun song. This reminds me of the movie Pewee's big adventure. Pewee goes into a bicker bar and the bikers are looking all aggressive towards Pewee you think he's going to get killed then he puts this song on the juke box and does a crazy dance after the bikers are all his friend.

You've been choosing a lot of goodies😁

Another really good instrumental is Wipeout by the Safaris. Kickass drums 🥁.

🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🤩🍹 You know you have a hit when the crowd yell out 💋TEQUILA🍹 Australia 💕 Christina

You need to hear the studio version.

☮️💜

Check out the Scene from Pee Wee's Big Adventure. Pee Wee Herman dances to this song.

I first heard this song in the movie sandlot and I heard a remix in the movie baby driver

🎶🎶🎶🔥🔥🔥🎶

Try Tennessee Ernie Ford 16 tons

A few suggestions, though you may know or have done some of these already: Head Over Feet by Alanis Morissette, Freedom and I Need You by Jon Batiste, Half Alive - Still Feel, Maklemore ft Skyler Grey - Glorious, Boston - Foreplay/Long Time, Pentatonix singing The Sound Of Silence, Black Water by the Doobie Brothers, American Pie by Don McClean, Bill Withers - kissing my Love, Ini Kamoze - Here Comes the Hotstepper, Vulfpeck - Back Pocket, The Chemical Brothers - Salmon Dance, The Avalanches - Frontier Psychiatry and Because I'm Me, Hilltop Hoods - 1955, OK Go - Needing/Getting as well as WTF?, and Upside Down and Inside Out

I was born 1992 song was tuqla 1958

If you haven't done so already, please listen to this again (on your own of course) but do the studio version. It's so much better. This doesn't really do it justice. Cos it really is a wonderful piece of music. 🎶🎼

Easiest karaoke song to do lol

Lord Rockinhams XI, " Hoots Mon "

Oh, please watch the movie “Pee Wee’s Big Adventure” or at least the scene with this song……

Perhaps the closest follow up track to this was the Mar-Keys "Last Night"

React to Oliver Dragojevic. You can listen to Cesarica or Trag u beskraju or any song you want, he was a great singer.

This song is featured in pee wee Herman Big Adventure He dances to it Subduing the Biker gang

Play The Ventures.

The big "guitar" is a bass.

Omg, my dad STILL makes me do the "Pee Wee Herman" dance to this. If you haven't seen it, check it out and you'll see what I mean! This is one of those songs where you absolutely have to dance and shout out. If you haven't done it yet, I'd love to see you check out Booker T. & the MGs "Green Onions." It's the epitome of old school badassery that makes you want to strut when you hear it.

A lot of folks call this song the PeeWee Herman dance song because they don’t know music history

Try Herb Albert and the Tijuana Brass.

You should react to the instrumental Wipeout

💕 H A P P Y N E W Y E A R !!! 2 0 2 2 💕⭐️when I used to drink,”MARGI NNIGHTS,” With my friends!!! ⭐️ 💕 With all my love, always ~ Laura💕 ❤️ 🥰❤️ S and M HIT SQUAD IS THE BEST!!! ❤️🥰❤️

If like song this try the ventures wipe out

Try The Tornados (Telstar ) 1962

The studio version sounds better but this one great also

Of course you are on the beach with her. Girlfriend needs someone to make her a tequila sunrise 🌅 🤪.

"Dick Clark's Bandstand.

Try Herb Albert and the Tijuana Brass…much better version

This song ALWAYS reminds me of PeeWee Herman 😆

Who doesn't think of Pee Wee Herman ??!!!! Come on!

I don't remember the artist but look for tequila makes her clothes fall off

Why did the Mexican throw his wife out the window?

Great music,poor video quality. Should listen to a clearer version of this classic song( Studio versio) to really appreciate it.

Fargin pee wee Herman

Terrible, promoting childhood alcoholism when they should be telling those children to stick to vodka.

It is a one word tune but that one word says it all
