Los Panchos- “Sabor a Mi”
Hearing this song in the movie “Blue Beetle” gave me a feeling of bliss and belonging that I believe the directors were going for when adding this song at the end of the movie.

The atmosphere that the song creates gives the listener a sense of comfort and calmness that stays persistent throughout the entire track, making the song worth the attention it has gained throughout the years.
