HELLO MY DEAR FRIENDS!
Well I finished it, FINALLY! LOL!
FIESTA MORA is by the Gypsy Kings & Alabina Ishtar!
I only understand the Spanish part of this song but I LOVE the music and the singer's voices! So I decided to do my own little interpretation of what I think they are singing about, lol!
I hope you all enjoy it! Make sure to view it in Full Screen mode to appreciate the beautiful Sims made by my wonderful friends!

Fanfreakingtastic!! I LOVE this one! It's gorgeous! The effect of (Vega?) riding the horse down the beach - sensational! Beautiful photography, and what a huge treat seeing all these sims we made in your video! I got a huge kick out of that!
One thing I've noticed that you're really good at with your videos is timing and speed. I've watched a LOT of sim videos, and the most common mistake I've seen people make is not slowing the game down to match the speed of the music. It makes such a huge difference, because it throws the sync of the entire video off when your sims are moving faster than the music. But you do it perfect EVERYTIME - from your very first video. Very impressive, my lady!
This was incredible. A huge thumbs up! Very enjoyable! Awesome job!

YAY! I'm so freaking glad you ladies liked it!
Thank-you so much my dear friends for the lovely words, and the AWESOME FEEDBACK! Your words made every 'fun' filming moment worth it, lol!
I know in the Spanish part he is singing about the beauty living in the white house, and her gorgeous eyes and lips. The music felt to me like a Spaniard falling in love with an Arabian beauty but for obvious reasons their love was not meant to be.... But they made AWESOME music together, at least my daughter and I think so, cuz we LOVE this song!

Honestly, I didn't understand a single word. Except blanca. So I knew something was white, lol! But it didn't matter. It's a pretty song and it does sound like a love song. I bet your interpretation is perfect!

Z, I've watched and listened to your new video three times now! It's awesome! The song is fan-freakin-tastic ... very sexy and exotic ... and I've always liked the Gypsy Kings. We have some of their cds, actually.
I just love the guitar players on the beach (yummy to the max) and the gorgeous female dancers. They look SO GREAT, playing and dancing. But of course, your stunning star by Jirka...she's just magnificent. The way she sings out the window to her lover is such a fabulous touch.
The whole video was done so beautifully, my dear friend. It is extremely impressive. I simply loved it.
I've found a loose translation of some of the words for you.
Some of the original lyrics:
yalabina yalla ya habibi yalla nifrah win ool, masha Allah yalabina yalla ya habibi yalla nifrah win ool, masha Allah
yalabina ala tool yalabina ala tool yalabina ala tool ah ya aili waili waili waili waili ulu inshalla
ayunak helwa shafayfek ghenwa ayunak helwa shafayfek ghenwa ah ya aili waili waili, waili waili ulu inshalla
Translates roughly:
Let's go let's go Darling let's go Let's get happy and say "Oh my goodness" Let's go let's go Darling let's go Let's get happy and say "Oh my goodness"
Let's go straight ahead Let's go straight ahead Let's go straight ahead Oh my torment, my torment, my torment I tell him "God willing"
From Granada to Casablanca It enters into my imagination A guitar and a gypsy sings Sings about my Andalusia (2x)
Your eyes are beautiful Your lips sing Your eyes are beautiful Your lips sing Oh my torment, my torment, my torment I tell him "God willing".

My dear sweet Sugah, THANK-YOU so much my dear friend! I'm very flattered that you watched the video 3 times!
I love the exotic sound of this song, as soon as I heard it I had images in my head, and I knew I had to try to do something with it, lol! Of course the Sims can't dance Flamenco, lol! I tried to select certain dance moves that most resembled the different dance styles, lol! Let me tell you I had some fun with this video, lol!
Thank-you so much for the translation my dear! I know there is another part where they are singing in Spanish about the beach and the sand! I just love this song and this music!

Amazing job, Zayury! The set looks absolutely gorgeous and the sims look even more beautiful in the video than they did in the still photos. I've tried working with sim videos (just a little bit) and I can't imagine how much work must have gone into making this. It really paid off though, because it looks fantastic. I love it.

Dear Em, THANK-YOU very much for watching my little video and for your wonderful comment! I'm thrilled that you liked it!
LOL, videos definitely do require a 'little' patience, lol! Especially, when the cast is not being very cooperative, lol! I ended up taking about 97 small clips and ended up using around 40 of them, lol!
Now that I have been trying my hand at Sim videos and I see the amazing and fabulous videos out there, I am in total shock and awe of the abilities of those people who made them!
Thanks again Em for your support!
