This list was totally great. A few of my fave songs of the year made the list but there were plenty of new songs too (mainly the slower stuff because I’m less likely to seek it out). I was pretty delighted to discover “La bajona” (Cariño). Thanks for sharing!

Way behind on my FPPs...

The main Spanish language radio stations in LA I like a lot as far as popular hits go, but they still play the same top 100 or so over and over so I only recognize 3 of the top 10...i am looking forward to the rest of the list [starting with #50 was a bit of a mistake....I looked up the lyrics, and I still need someone to explain it to me, because the (apparent?) mysogeny nearly knocked me over and the lyrics have a lot of slang I don't follow. But maybe I am just old.] Anyhow thanks for posting, there looks to be a lot of variety of style which is great, always love new music!

No worries, I might not have noticed as much except I actually was watching the video... I googled to see if there were any articles explaining the lyrics but no. Loving the list generally though, lots of new-to-me artists!
