if your a girl than this question would be okay but if your a boy than your wierd because Hey ho! comes from Hannah Montana
1) In British English at least, "Hey ho" is an expression used when something hasn't gone according to plan, to dispel one's feeling of disappointment.
Eg. Oh, we've just missed the bus. Hey ho.
[from Urbandictionary.com]
2) Also "Hey ho""hey ho" was used e.g. when sailors were pulling a rope to mark when they should pull. So it became a generalized marker of rhythm, often used in songs just as a repetitive framework.
From an answer at Word Reference Forums
...and is often used in concerts especially by rap artists to synchronize the waving of the crowd.
Hope this helps.

What does TU tamale mi mean?
Depends on the situation. The literal meaning of "tamale" is well known, it is a type of food very common in many latinoamerican countries. But the figurative meaning may vary. It can be very vulgar: "Hey, do you want to play with my tamale?" Or even grotesque: "That girl has a great tamale, my friend!" So, if you are part of a Spanish group, don't ever say to a girl: "Can I eat your tamale?" -not even in a restaurant.
