Fiesta (single)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Fiesta" was a single by The Pogues, featured on their 1988 album If I Should Fall from Grace with God. It was written by Jem Finer and Shane MacGowan, based on a Spanish fair ground melody Finer had picked up. The video was directed by popular British comedian and actor Adrian Edmondson. "Fiesta" was the last of Pogues single to make the UK Top 30 while MacGowan was with the band. The song is a live highlight and has been included in most setlists since its release, often as the closer with whistle player Spider Stacy adding percussion by beating a beer tray against his head.
