Music Video of the Week: La Otra Banda “La Cebolla”

Posted: April 13th, 2009 | Author: Justin | Filed under: Articles About Music, Music Video of the Week | Tags: | 1 Comment »

This video is both technically stunning and absolutely fun to watch:

LA OTRA BANDA “LA CEBOLLA(THE ONION)” HD from Daniel Etura on Vimeo

I think this video is the prime example of what I love about both music and music videos; despite the fact that I have not a clue what the band is singing about, this video does such a brilliant job of capturing the essence and spirit of the song.

An interesting note about La Otra Banda, they won the 2008 John Lennon Songwriting Grand Prize in the World category for their song “Indigenous”.

    Hi Justin, many thanks about your comments of the video.
    My name is Nerio Gutierrez, I am one of the people who is related to this project, I want put some light in your question about, what is this song about.
    This song talk about, the bless and benefits of eat vegies, specially for kids, it is not a children song is a song wih many folk influences that tells to mamas to feed their self with good food to later feed well their babys.

    This song is sang in a very naive way, and also is good to mention that this video was made by Daniel Gomez which is a friend from our childhood, i ask you to understand that my english is not the best, sorry about that.

    Best wishes.
