#On the floor original song lambada archive

Categories Categories HISTORY So call it “Llorando se fue”, call it “Lambada” … Or maybe just call it “stolen”.Ĭreative bankruptcy: It’s not just for two-bit lounge acts anymore. In my opinion, it’s over-produced and not nearly as appealing as any of the previous versions of this melody. This is the Jennifer Lopez version (“rip-off”?) called “On The Floor”. It’s official in the sense that Kaoma made it an international hit, and Los Kjarkas sued Kaoma for plagiarism and won. Here’s an “official” Lambada version from 1989.

I’m not sure which one Jennifer Lopez is guilty of, but it’s one or the other. I hate ‘sampling’ almost as much as I hate plagiarism.
