Hi
being half Ecuadorian this makes me feel ashamed for this guy song, he does represent the 30% of Indians culture living in Ecuador, however 70% of nation population are White, Mixed races, and Black people, it is not fair to put the whole big and nice country and its culture, into this horrible mold and cheaply made music.
Personally I have to say this sort of song won’t have made a single sale here in Ecuador.. all this mess is “thanks” to youtube madness and black humor of others!

What a shame!

PS: I respect and find value in all world cultures but I don’t find it accurate or Correct to put a country bigger that many European nations into such poor mold, all for this 3 minutes stupid and no sense song! Made by a non musician guy, with no talent. OPEN YOUR EYES YOU PEOPLE Ecuador is a lot more than delfin quishpe!!

Dsfd, has a point but I would like to recall him this is reality, those are facts. What delfin is doing is not reality, not even facts. That is called an expression of art!

I think that part of Delfin's appeal is his humility. Even though he realizes that much of his fame is based on mockery, he still is so nice and seems like a really great guy. I just came across this link [ES] at Tiempos de Blogs that says Delfin grew up in a straw house in southern Ecuador.

I don’t know why, exactly, but we need more Delfin’s in this net-world
