Okie, if you think about it, thats part of what makes Louisiana so unique. We are "all over the place" displaying a diversity of music, food, language and people ... a "cultural gumbo" ! How about Sammy Kershaw: [MEDIA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncGZWQGkNzc&feature=related[/MEDIA] Here's a song about Holly Beach, can't spell cajun music without Mr. Nathan Abshire. If you can understand french, the lyrics are pretty funny: [MEDIA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgRmoQX55is&feature=related[/MEDIA]
Okay this is possibly the saddest cajun song ever written and performed. The name of the song is La Valse Du Bambocheur (Drunkard's Sorrow Waltz). I'm going to try and find a translation of the lyrics. [MEDIA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a84va_q-cP0[/MEDIA] Zack Attack !
