Question
who sang the song that was popular in the 80's Don Quixote no senor...looking for it all over the I Store

Answer
Dear Alie,

That was a classic. Not only was that song popular here in Manila but also in the States. The tune is DON QUICHOTTE by MAGAZINE 60. They were a French synth pop group that was active in the 1980s. Their members included Jean-Luc Drion and Dominique Régiacorte. A cut form their album COSTA DEL SOL, it went to #56 on the Hot 100 Chart on June 14, 1986. It also went as high as #16 on the Hot Dance Club Play Chart on January 11, 1986. The song has a video on You Tube, watch it there. Here's how it goes:

Expertise

I can answer just about everything from the 80`s, rock, pop, trivias, artist infos, Billboard chart positions, albums, etc. But songs that became hit in the Philippines and OPM songs are my expertise. I grew on 80`s music and still listening to 80`s music as it is the best era in music history for me. My friends call me the walking encyclopedia of 80`s music. I got books & collections of CDs, all from the 80`s.

Experience

Let's just say music is my life and my source is a lifetime of knowledge about 80's music and then some.
