Sucu Sucu

"Sucu Sucu" is a dance and a song written by Tarateño Rojas, who recorded his version in 1959. It became very popular in the 1960s and many singers and bands from all over the world made their own version of the song often in their own language.[1] The song became even more popular worldwide once it was chosen to be the theme of Top Secret, a 1960s TV series, performed by Laurie Johnson and his orchestra.[2][3] Even the Skatalites and Alberto Cortez did their own version of the song.
