Música
 
What do you guys think is the best music to understand/learn spanish. I've been downloading a lot of spanish much and so far I can understand stuff like Juanes pretty good. What other artists do you think are good to learn spanish if I listen to them; thats if anyone has though about this :rolleyes:

I can recommending you that you listen Jose Jose's music, his music is singed very slow.

Satyr January 11, 2010 09:31 AM

its kinda of whatever you like. Its very helpful if you look at the lyrics while you listen to it. You tube vidoes often have videos with the lyrics in them. doing a you tube search of "con letra" (with lyrics) http://www.youtube.com/results?searc...rch_type=&aq=f results a bunch of songs you could check out.

CrOtALiTo January 12, 2010 05:47 PM

Yes, youtube website there are a lot kinda to music but sometimes to music isn't very clear in the language, therefore I would prefer to music of a CD.

Alin January 13, 2010 08:09 PM

I listen to a lot of Wisin Y Yandel, Franco El Gorila, Shakira, Ricky Martin, Don Omar, Tego Calderon, Arcangel, Aventura, and some others. I like reggaeton :P. Some songs are slower than others, and yes lyrics do help a lot!

CrOtALiTo January 14, 2010 09:07 AM

Well inclusive in me that I'm speaker Spanish, sometimes I have troubles for understand the Spanish reggaeton music.

But I believe that is a good chance for that you can learn the Spanish.

Manu Chao and the Buena Vista Social club for me.:)

CrOtALiTo January 17, 2010 11:02 AM

Also La ley's music is very useful in the term to learn the language.

Also they have good music.

I find that in slower songs it is easier to follow the language. Gloria Estefan, Julio Iglesias (I know, I know ... old crooners!), even Gianmarco and Jarabe de Palo are some with slow songs that I find easy to understand.....

CrOtALiTo January 19, 2010 03:32 PM

To Gloria's Estefan music is very good, already she knows the two language Spanish and English, I have head her before sing in the concert, and really she knows speak the language very nice in the gender of the salsa music.

My favorite is Julieta Venegas. I also like Juanes, Shakira, and Maná.

I have posted this before, but I think this is helpful. Boleros are slow ballads about love and love lost. They were popular in the 1950's and sung clearly and simply. The lyrics are intelligent, and you can really learn a lot
of good Spanish with them. They are often sung in a staight forward manner that may help your pronunciation. THe lyrics are easily found on the internet and reading them along while the song is played is a great help. In the 1990's Luis Miguel recorded some modern interpretations of boleros that can be really helpful. Of course the originals like Tonia La Negra are worth looking into as well if you can find a clear recording.

Juanes
Shakira
Maná
Heroes del Silencio


Si te gustan los deportes y el radio español tratas de escuchar al radio marca,

www.marca.com:D

I like to music from Jose Jose, and another singers, also I like the Timbiriche's music this groups is very old, but even they have music very nice, that it's heard in the radio.

Lock-Out May 29, 2010 10:47 AM

I think this is a key (does it mean "esto es clave" :?:). Many modern singers use the language very confusingly. Shakira is a good example of this, she takes licenses in her songs that would be considered mistakes in spoken language: No sólo de pan vive el hombre y no de excusas vivo yo (This construction is wrong)

I would recomend to all of you some spanish pop groups from the 80-90's like Los Secretos, Duncan Dhu and Mecano.

CrOtALiTo May 30, 2010 12:06 PM

Do you have to listen La Ley's music, they singing to rock music in Spanish, and their music is very understanding.

You can watch them in your Youtube, there you will can find a infinite to music spoken in Spanish.

I think this is key. (Also: I think this is the key.)

I think that reggaeton isn´t a good alternative, because it has a lot of slang, and boricua gang slang, that nobody in anothers countries understand.

I also recomend poprock groups from 80s and 90s from Spain and Argentina, or ballads (Luis Miguel, Ricardo Montaner, Emmanuel, etc.) or boleros (but for me they´re too depressive), or nueva trova (music with poetic lyrics), or Salsa (if you like joyful and lively music).

Silvio Rodriguez, Pablo Milanes, Mercedes Sosa and Joan Manuel Serrat are excelents singer-songwriters.
Mecano is a great group of pop too. "El último de la fila" and "Soda Stereo" are my favorites groups of rock in spanish.

Hector Lavoe, Frankie Ruiz, Eddie Santiago, Oscar de Leon, Joe Arroyo, Willie Gonzales are some of the best salseros, excellents lyrics and good music. Several of their songs have romantic and passionate lyrics.

If there are someone with a refined taste in music can to try with peruvian vals:

Hola Bolboreta, :)
Sin ánimo de polemizar, sino de comprender, no veo la razón de que "y no de excusas vivo yo" sea una construcción incorrecta. A lo mejor se me escapa algo, pero me suena a lenguaje español poético de lo más genuino. A lo mejor es que no me entero de la regla que viola, pero la verdad es que la entiendo perfectamente...
Si puedes darme una pista, o explicarme la historia, pues te lo agradezco. (No sólo de verduras viven los ovo-lacto-vegetarianos, y no de carne vivo yo... o sea, que tampoco vivo yo sólo de carne...)
