Default Mexican expression

This is so Mexican!!! This Andale is a purely Mexican expression and they use it so widely. They use it either to say go for it! or to express satisfaction, I guess a Mexican, if we have any on the forum, will be able to explain more.
In Spain and in certain situations, Anda! is used instead; in Cuba Echa! or ¡Vaya! and it does not necessarily mean go! it's like a surprise-satisfaction expression. Wow could be a similar word in English!
