Guantanamera (4:43)

“Guantanamera” (“girl from Guantánamo”) is perhaps the best known Cuban song and that country’s most noted patriotic song.

“Guantanamera” is the second single released from Wyclef Jean’s debut solo album The Carnival. The song is a cover of the Cuban classic “Guantanamera” and features vocals by Celia Cruz. Also, Lauryn Hill raps on the track. “Guantanamera” entered the UK chart at #25, its highest chart position, and spent just two weeks on the chart. The song also charted in Switzerland and Sweden. Copies of the CD single were shipped with a remix of Wyclef’s previous track, “We Trying to Stay Alive”.
