Lootala|Remix Version

Lootayla by Sonny Mann is considered the biggest selling Chutney song of its time but to this day I don't know what "Lootala" means... If you do please enlighten me by leaving a comment to this post.

"In the fall of 1994, a Trinidadian by the name of Sonny Mann debuted with an album of Chutney Soca songs, entitled Soca Chutney. Slowly, the album began climbing the charts. By the summer of 1995, the title song from the album had hit #1 in every country in the Caribbean as well as in the United States, Canada & England. "Lootala" went on become the most successful Indo-Caribbean single of all time, even knocking out Drupatee's "Mr. Bissessar." The Soca Chutney album was also declared the best selling Indo-Caribbean album ever, beating out Terry Gajraj's Guyana Baboo (Mann, 1995)."

This is the remix version taken from YouTube sung by Sonny Man, General Grant & Denise Belfon. I posted this version simply because I like the combination of the voices and especially with General Grant in the mix.
