Torres Gemelas
Torres Gemelas is a viral video that launched the career of singer Delfin Quishpe. The song is a modern lament for the deaths of thousands, including a dear friend of Quishpe in the September 11 attacks.Video
In the video Quishpe flips on the television as he sits down on a couch. The news of the Terrorist attacks on New York comes onto the
screen. Quishpe rises to his feet crying "No puede ser, nooo..." then segues into song.Popularity
In 2006, "Torres Gemelas" was released. While the song is tragic in nature, the subject matter being Delfin losing a loved one in the terrorist attack of 9/11, the whimsical and kitschy nature of the song as well as the poor acting in the music video has made this song a bit of an internet meme.
The video was a viral success, receiving millions of views.
