La Musica Latina

Postby Cypress » Tue Oct 10, 2006 9:20 pm

I’m kind exploring the world of Latin pop music and I have many questions.

Do you like Paulina Rubio? I heard her song Ni una palabraon a local Mexican radio wave. I really liked the song. But I have never heard about Paulina before. Is she very popular? And is she from Mexico or Spain? What is the name of her last album?

I also heard the song Tu recuerdo, but I didn’t recognize that Ricky Martin was singing it. I’m wondering now who are those other people singing with him. Do you know?

Hi Nice Post!!! I'm glad you hear those songs in your country!! :P

Paulina is a Mexican singer. She has been singer for many years, even though I don't like that song ( which is new) she is very popular and famous. I remember she was the host of one of the Latin MTV awards...!!!

Ricky?? He's from Puerto Rico and let me tell you ( in my opinion) that he's a great Musican, and singer. A good artist :P .. and That new song is FOR ME gorgeous ad spectacular.. I remember that the first time I watched that video was last week and I really liked the song. The girl is from Spain, I think, because of the accent, her name is Mari( La Mari), and the other I don't remember very well!! :oops:

But nice songs!! I'm glad you like them... That's our Latin music.. sweet ones..

I heard another song by Paulina Rubio. It’s called Enamorada. When I heard it on the radio, even though I could only understand enamorada de ti (in love with you), I thought wow, what a beautiful song. Then I found the video on the web, and it was like boo :?
The only good thing is that she does look better with straight hair rather than curly.
I don’t understand. When I listen to her songs on the radio, I really like them, but then I watch the videos of her songs and it is a real disappointment. Why are they so twisted minded? What’s wrong with that gal?

One more thing. What does atrapada mean? I couldn’t find the translation. It is in her song :

Me siento atrapada, alma engañada

Paulina Rubio? Are you serious? :?

I'm sure your Latin American members can suggest real music from their countries ;)

Cypress: "atrapada" means trapped.

Paulina Rubio?? :shock: When I think of her, Thalia caomes to my mind for some reason. Maybe is it cuz both of them don't know how to sing at all? :D
Anyhow, I don't like any of them. I'd say Shakira is better. Although I used to like her more in the past. Now she looks kind of slutty to me. Btw, she will be in Lima soon.

When's her concert? Where?

I absolutely adored her 10 years ago. Her voice gave me goosebumps. I got all her albums...

What happened to her next? She's not the one she used to be. And her voice has kind of changed a lot... It's definitely not the same.
