    Default Ultra mega obscure song request

    Okay, I every so often make an obscure song request but this one takes the biscuit, I will literally be shocked if anyone gets this right (not joking, I'll stick my thumb in a socket)

    Anyway the song in question is like a samba song with trumpets and it sounds very Brazilian-esque....now not saying it is Brazilian just that it sounds what you'd think sounds Brazilian-esque.

    Now the only piece of info I have on the song is this, it starts with a 'B' it's one word and its something ridiculous like "Bababaritti" or "Babatatati"or "Bataritti"

    Now those aren't the exact letter orders but it kind of looks like that in how it looks with those letters.

    Another piece of info is: it's in a relatively obscure boxing documentary about Emile Griffith called "Ring of Fire" and it plays over the montage section when he's winning his titles and doing very well being at the top of the world and so on and so forth.

    Okay thats it! rep will be given for a right answer!

    Great documentary by the way.I think the Latin underpinnings of this soundtrack are by Tito Rodriguez, Ray Barretto and Machito.

    Try: Boleros del Caribe - Tito

    If it isnt this one, how does the tempo compare? More/less vocals?

    Is it "Babarabatiri"? I know a version done by Perez Prado.
