"Así me gusta a mí" (transl.'That's the Way I Like It') is a song recorded by Chimo Bayo. Recorded in Rager Studio, the single was released on 24 June 1991.[1] The song, which became a generational icon of the so-called "Ruta del Bakalao" in Spain,[1] also earned Bayo international fame, reaching number one in Israel and Japan.[1][2] Sales surpassed 1 million in more than 40 countries.[3] In addition to the Spanish-language lyrics, featuring a play on words on ecstasy,[4] non-lexical vocables such as "¡Hoo! ¡Hoo ha! ¡Hea hoo! Chiquitan chiquitan tan tan…" are uttered throughout the song.[5] It was produced by German Bou.[6]

Chimo Bayo eventually released a wine label named "Hu-Há" ('Hoo Ha'), after the non-lexical vocable.[1]
