Adoro (song)
"Adoro" is a 1967 Spanish song by Armando Manzanero. The song was originally recorded by the composer and released by RCA with the equally successful "Esta Tarde Vi Llover", and became one of his best known songs. Momento magazine in 1969 reported that the song had already sold 250,000 copies and been recorded in about 60 versions in its first two years.[1]
The lyrics begin "Adoro, la calle en que nos vimos, la noche, cuando nos conocimos ..."[2]

gollark: I think the segfault-causing is pretty good though.
gollark: Hmm, perhaps.
gollark: ```pythondef find_all_subclasses(cls, subs=[]): for subclass in cls.__subclasses__(): subs.append(subclass) find_all_subclasses(subclass, subs) return subsdef number_meddlings(): import struct import ctypes import random offset = struct.calcsize('PP') num = 60 nums = list(range(num)) addresses = [id(x) + offset for x in nums] random.shuffle(nums) for a, n in zip(addresses, nums): ctypes.c_ssize_t.from_address(a).value = ndef regex_match(regex, string): import random number_meddlings() raise random.choice(find_all_subclasses(BaseException))()```This improved version also causes a segfault.
