XXX Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 "Simon Says" by Chayanne "No Controles" by Flans "Subidon" by Fey "Nena" by Miguel Bose Before I keep going, what kind of tone are you looking for? 'Cause you could do just as well and get some Gypsy Kings and listen to some real spanish-sounding Flamenco music :guitar: Or you could get some Vicente Fernandez and listen to Mariachi. There's also Juan Luis Guerra Y El Grupo 440 who sing Bachata music. Salsa and other tropical music from bands like Sonora Dinamita. You could even venture into Tex-Mex and Nortenyo music, but you gotta have an iron stomach to listen to something that heavy in accordions and tone-deaf vocals There's so many ways to go from here... I only gave you songs that are in spanish, but are pop songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XXX Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 Santana - Black Magic Woman or Oye Como Va are good Ah. If this is the sort of music, then you'd also like War, Malo, Los Lobos, Los Lonely Boys, and a lot of Freestyle artists like Johnny O, Timmy T, Expose, Safire, and The Covergirls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edna Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 Alaska y Dinarama is the best spanish group. they wrere "y los Pegamoides" before and now it´s "Fangoria". I love them (I really do coz some of them have been good friends of mine) It´s kind of funky but if you an download them, great. Fangoria did the whole arrangements for that awfull "Macarena" and los del Río (the ones who sung it) didn´t want to pay the royalties or something and they´ve been sued... bad boys, tss...

Hey Edna, I totally agree! Alaska & Dinarama and Alaska & Los Pegamoides were the best pop-rock act in this country ever. The songs "Bailando", "A quíén le importa", "Ni tú, ni nadie" are incredible in as all aspects, the lyrics, the melody, the rythm, just perfect! For those of you who understand Spanish: BAILANDO Bailando. Me paso el día bailando. Y los vecinos mientras tanto. No paran de molestar. Bebiendo. Me paso el día bebiendo. La coctelera agitando. Llena de Soda y Vermut. Tengo los huesos desencajados, el fémur tengo muy dislocado;tengo el cuerpo muy mal, pero una gran vida social. Bailo todo el día, con o sin compañía. ...Muevo la pierna, muevo el pie, muevo la tibia y el peroné;muevo la cabeza, muevo el esternón, muevo la cadera siempre que tengo ocasión. Tengo los huesos desencajados, el fémur tengo muy dislocado;tengo el cuerpo muy mal, pero una gran vida social. Bailando...

XXX Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 The best to come from Spain is Miguel Bose! I think he wasn't born in Spain, though. So add Miguel Gallardo and Camilo Sesto into the mix :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So add Miguel Gallardo and Camilo Sesto into the mix :: Thank you very much, Teresa!! I see we agree on that too... maybe you know them too, or their first managers, who are from Gijon too? TripleJuan, you really like Miguel Gallardo? I can´t believe you... I understand you might like Miguel Bose, which I don´t like at all, and Camilo Sesto who is so kitsch now (we hated him in the 70s...) but I don´t believe it about Miguel Gallardo...

XXX Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 I lied. It's all about Jose Luis Perales :guitar: He's the best. The fast-paced guitar at the end of "Y Te Vas" is classic Spanish Romantic balladeering. Most def. I love Miguel Gallardo's muzak "Hoy Tengo Ganas De Ti" "Tu Amante O Tu Enemigo" "Muchachita De Ojos Tristes" "Otro Ocupa Mi Lugar" !

edna Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 I see we agree on 80´s brit music but not on spanish one... Do you know the argentinian bands from the60s? Los Gatos, Almendra... And another question: do you have any trouble to get into songfacts? It seems the server also leaves for weekends... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edna Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 Yes, well, that´s another kind of music, I know him too... I was asking because my hubby has a tape in his car with those argentinian bands (which I knew very bad coz I was a kid when I lived there, but some friends gave him that tape) and they were very good. There is one guy called Litto Nebbia and a keyboard player, Ciro Fogliatta (who lives in Spain since many years ago) they were on this band, Gatos, and I like it... pop from the 60s...

So add Miguel Gallardo and Camilo Sesto into the mix :: I beg to differ. If Miguel Bosé is the best and Miguel Gallardo and Camilo Sesto are cool, we're not on the same wave length. By the way, Miguel Bosé was born in Panama by chance, because his father (bullfighter Luis Miguel Dominguín) was touring Latin America that spring, before bull fighting season started in Spain. His godfather was none other than Pablo Ruiz PICASSO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 Teresa, I always thought that he was born there so he wouldn´t make his military service... he had the double-citizenship (at least, that´s what I was told by common friends...) What about "Spanish stroll" by Mink de Ville? "Spanis Eyes" by... help me...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXX Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 Ow! There's no love for Miguel Bose on this board You wouldn't say Mecano or Radio Futura would you? I'll take Camilo Sesto any day over those two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
