The director of ‘A todo tren! Destino Asturias’, which is currently in theaters, starts its particular playlist with ‘Mediodía en la Luna’, the soundtrack of ‘Father there is no more than one 2’. But this song lists are not new to him, as the comedian recognizes “it was the classic geek who recorded songs on cassettes to make girls fall in love.”
With that romantic character he starts to sing for Frank Sinatra and his ‘Me and my shadow’. “There are hundreds of incredible Sinatra songs and you always choose ‘New York, New York’ or ‘My Way,'” declares the comedian.
And from the Voice, to the Master. Segura once again coincides with our previous guest, Marwán, and his next choice cannot be other than Joaquín Sabina and his ‘Pills to not dream’. Although he admits that “it could be anyone, it happens to me like with Sinatra I like all his songs”. As a result of this theme, he recalls an anecdote with the singer-songwriter of ‘Semos different’, the soundtrack of ‘Torrente’. “While Joaquín insisted that someone rogue sing it, I asked him who was more rogue than he,” says Santiago Segura.
On the next installment of Torrente, he has also dropped that “in the same way that there is no Rocky VI and there is Rocky Balboa; There will be no Torrente 6, but José Luis Torrente ”.
It also has a place for children’s songs, like the classic ‘Busca lo más vital’ from ‘The Jungle Book’. Song that transports him to his childhood, to the cinema and the morning sessions. “I took my daughters to see the new one, the digital version and they liked it as much as the other one … I almost disowned them!”, Says the actor.
His friend Nicolás Romero, better known as Poquito de los Chiripitifláuticos, has taken the opportunity to greet him about a ‘chiripitifláutica’ musical choice. And among friends is also the next song chosen by Santiago Segura. The tribute version to Luis Eduardo Aute of ‘Pasaba por aqui’, “I have always liked collaborations and friendships,” says the comedian.
Inside the particular playlist there are also intimate memories. ‘High noon (do not forsake me)’ by Frankie Laine was what it sounded like “the first time he shared a bed with a woman”, as he himself has related.
As a good master of ceremonies, he also launches with Joel Gray and his well-known ‘Willkommen’, the soundtrack of the movie ‘Cabaret’. “It was my first album, I bought it at Discoplay, it was on this same street,” Segura recalls.
Among all the music chosen by the comedian, variety stands out, including one off-script, ‘Río Rebelde’, which is accompanied with a great truth: “Everyone listens to Julio Iglesias.”
