In 1993 MTV Latin America begun its airplay with We are sudamerican rockers. The word sudamerican is a mock Anglicisation of the Spanish word for South America, Sudamérica.

The lyrics of the song start with "Son hermosos ruidos que salen de las tiendas, atraviesan a la gente y les mueven los pies..." and then includes a call to Elvis in a mix of Spanish, English and French: "Elvis! sacúdete en tu cripta, We are south american rockers, Nous sommes rockers sudamericaines. No nos acompleja revolver los estilos."
