La canción de la semana #375

...is ¿Quién será? composed and recorded in 1953 by Mexican Pablo Beltrán Ruiz. Its English version, Sway, was made famous by Dean Martin the following year. The song was covered by numerous artists, from Cliff Richard to Björk and Jennifer Lopez, and remains as (if not more) popular today as 60 years ago.

The videoclip from Escuela de vagabundos (1954) featuring Pedro Infante.
