Tema vs. temon vs. temazo

So, whenever my friends in Argentina post videos of music they really like, they always say stuff like "que temazo!" "temon!!" y "que tema" I was wondering, what is the difference between these? I know 'tema' is slang for cancion/song, and I get the general picture of what these three variations of the word mean, but I want to know the detailed difference between them so if I use one in a post, I won't be using it in the wrong context.muchas gracias! wink

Que temazo : What a great son!

When you say something with "azo" and "aza" you are just saying it is great or very impressive.

If you where actually saying "song" it would be "¡Que cancionsaza!" it's all slang, colloquial.

Temon! : It's the same, "on" = "cancionson" Something is huge, like amazingly impressive.

"Que tema" : What a song! Same meaning.

It´s not exactly correct grammar but it is something any spanish speaker uses in their daily life.
