Well, I remember when I was a kid, there was a popular song called "Las Maravillas del Malay" (I've never figured out what Malay meaned but didn't cared, after I heard it more for the music than for the lirics)... a few years ago I found out that the theme was actually called "Last Night A Deejay Saved My Life". -- Carlos Th
