Beginner-Intermediate Level Jesse & Joy Corre! (2011) Mexican brother and sister act that hit it big, very big. This song was used in the infamous telenovala 'La que no podia amar,' and if you ever watch it yourselves, you'll be going 'dum... dedum-dedum' with the rest of us. This song makes for a superb basis for a lesson: modern, uncomplicated, good lyrical narrative, clear singing voice. What's stopping you SPANISH TV: THE BEST ONLINE LIVE

of What I Believe to Be the Best Spanish Language Songs Re Learning Spanish. We've all done it: Tuned into various Spanish and Latin American music radio stations hoping to find some decent Spanish language music only meet with absolute tosh. Not that the good stuff doesn't exist. It's just that it's suprisingly unpopular. Nevermind. I've made a playlist that is perhaps more suited to anglo-american tastes.

Intermediate Level Romeo Santos Propuesta Indecente (2013) 779 million views on YouTube. Let me repeat 770 MILLION REVIEWS. Can you afford NOT to know this song. As it happens, though it may be extremely risqué, even controversial, it is also a great catchy song with a strong lyrical base. Romeo, a bronx born singer of latin descent, has been key making popular the Bachata style of music. Come and see why! FREE LYRICS TRANSLATION SPANISH LESSON Beginner Level Shakira Pienso En Ti (1995) We all know Shikira, right? Well... wrong! Come see Shakira's other, less hip jingling side, with this 'hair raising on the back of the neck' song. It's extremely simple, very short, yet immensely poignant. It is also the only Shakira song you are ever likely to make out all the words. It also happens to be one of my favourites: "it's my website, and I'll do the songs that I want to, the songs that I...." FREE LYRICS TRANSLATION SPANISH LESSON Intermediate Level Juanes' A Dios le Pido (2002) If you are learning Spanish then be prepared to come across this song (that is if you haven't come accross it already!) This song was, and still is, everywhere. Juanes is a legend and many of his songs would make great bases for a lesson but I chose this one for a reason in particular; it is a mental work out for the Subjunctive Mood. If you don't know what that is, then, ROLL ON UP. FREE LYRICS TRANSLATION SPANISH LESSON Intermediate Level Carla Morrisons Déjenme Llorar (2012) I remember not so long back when I was doing a job that I hated... just flippin hated. I remember coming home each day and sticking on this song because I knew nothing would have cheered me up, and so I decided to just wallow in self-pity. But the song did help, and the reason is is because its a latin grammy award winning marvelous piece of work. I'm sure you'll enjoy learning the ins and outs of the lyrics of one of Mexicalifornia's treasured jewels. Just be prepared to part with a few tears, that's all. FREE LYRICS TRANSLATION SPANISH LESSON Intermediate Level Nena Daconte's Voy a Tumbarme al sol (2013?) This was the first lyrics translation language lesson I ever did (Spanish or French) and so it remains close to my heart. It is probably the most complete (standards have slipped!) Why start with this song? It was constantly on the radio at the time and kinda got stuck in my head. No regrets though, as it's still as catchy little number. I'm also a little taken by this Spanish group's lead singer, Mai Menses, and you'll be too when you see her perform a live acoustic version of the song in this lesson. Right! all done! I'm off lie in the sun... FREE LYRICS TRANSLATION SPANISH LESSON Beginner Level Nuestro Camino (a song from) Violetta (2014) Don't know what Violleta is? It's a very successful Argentinian Disney channel ado-series about a girl and her friends who sing a lot (can you tell this definition was not copied from Wikipedia!) Ok, If this is not your thing, fair enough. However, I found this karaoke video of one of their songs on YouTube and thought to myself, 'It's almost tailor made for Spanish language beginners.' So I then searched for the lyrics and a translation (it's not mine) and put them together. I will gradually be adding annotations to make it into a proper lesson. |
