Favorite Music

Question

Just wondering . . . ¿Cuál es su canción español favorita?

I can't remember the title of the song, but it is a ranchera song sung by one of the greatest vocalists of all time, the late Lola Beltrán. I weep everytime I hear it, which is often. - 005457e3, Oct 30, 2009

Answer 1

A mi, Tego Calderon (Tracional a Lo Bravo), RKM y Ken-Y (Live 2008), Calle 13 (La Jifrafa, Vamos animal), old Wishin y Yendel (Pegao), Julio Voltio (Mellao, which the video is too funny, check it out). I love the way los reggaetoneros se usan espanol. I like a little salsa, El Gran Combo, Puerto Rican Power, Gilberto Santa Rosa...and just a couple of people from Spain...Jarabe de Palo, Alejandro Sanz, Mare de la Chumbao. There's one mexican rap group I like, Akwid, but they don't really have ola, don't know why I like them. I have lots of favorite songs, didn't want to write them all out. Check those groups out...you'll never even get close to understanding Tego, but he got flow.

Answer 2

I don't know if everyone knows what "ice cream trucks" are. But here in the city, they are constantly driving up and down the street trying to sell ice cream. They play loud music to let you know they are coming. The one in my neighborhood plays only "La Cucaracha", so I hear that song in my head pretty much all day. I think I have a love/hate relationship with the song.

JAJA! In my sisters neighborhood, one drives around and will say very loudly "HELLO?" in a funny voice. It drives her crazy... - cheeseisyummy, Sep 24, 2009

My parents told us that when the music plays that means they've ran out of ice cream :'-( - AnnoLoki, Sep 29, 2009

That was a brilliant idea for parents...not so much for the kids!!! - Nicole-B, Sep 29, 2009

Hate that song . . . friend had it as a ringtone on her phone and the phone went off in the theater. - mctague, Sep 30, 2009

Great song. I listen to it all the time. - mysong, Oct 2, 2009
