Colombiche - I think you're in the I/T business??? These are still images, but you might like the one in the lower left corner.

This commercial doesn't really say "colombia" but it is MOST definitely a Shakira spoof.

You are right Tinto. I love the one in the lower left corner.

I would love it if somebody could find the commercial I am talking about. The girl on the commercial, the one looking out the train window is actually my cousin, she used to be a beauty queen back in the 80's. I might have to end up calling her to get a copy of the damn commercial LOL.

but you can click on 1980s, 1990s or INTERNATIONAL for a number of their TV commercials.

tinto, coffee beans, I had to chuckle, although I am aware that tinto is not a national word for a little cup of black sweet coffee

Here is a Nescafé commercial (in French) that I believe plays La Colegiala. I'll see if I can find it in Spanish too parce qu'il n'y a pas beaucoup de francophones ici. Bet it is the same commercial Colombiche is looking for, I remember it too. My Google-fu is strong tonight.

Yeah. The video isn't much, but the song remains the same. This is the video I think Colombiche did not want to post?

no se, but... she was 'wearing it quite well', colombiche (the pastuso hat)....

Now, tell me, why is it called a pastuso hat? I don't remember anyone, no ladies, wearing hats like that in Pasto.

I don't know GS, it just has a pastuso look to it. Not mainstream (ladino) pastuso, but it looks like those hats the native guambianos and highland ecuadoran indians wear.
