Thanks Erika! I will look these up right now!

Update!
Erika you are a blessing! I liked them all! no I love them all!! Thanks a million! If you have any other suggestions.. my ears are ready to receive. One band you mentioned I've heard before. El Canto del Loco. They have a song called "Aunque to no lo sepas" Love that song. It was my 1st song that I translated.

Thanks again!

Great!! I'm so glad you liked them! I'll continue browsing through my iTunes library and send you any more good ones that I find..
My host mom had 'Besos' - El Canto del Loco - as her ring tone when I lived in Spain, so that song always reminds me of being there!! I'm going to look up your song suggestion as soon as I get a chance!

Super! I think the original Artist who sang that song is Quique González. There is a video on youtube of that song sung by him with acoustic. Its got lyrics. Really nice. Check that out also. I think you will like them both.

Nobody has mentioned Música Urbana or bachata..some of the most beautiful songs I know are bachata, or bolero. Artists such as Prince Royce, Romeo Santos (formally of Aventura), Xtreme, and others Bachateros are usually American-born and sometime sing spanglish, and is popular among the younger first-generation Latino Americans.

'Promise' - Romeo Santos feat. Usher - My favorite tune right now...most romantic to dance Bachata con mi novio.

My favorite among the Urban Music is Wisin Y Yandel - Top favorites 'Tu Olor', 'Te Siento', 'Me estas Tentando'...among others. Sexy sexy music. Saw these guys in concert twice! Yandel es un papacito! Tambien Romeo Santos, mis papacitos Puertoriqueños

At least you have listed much music with a good vocabulary in Spanish as well as you can learn all them, such as Mexica's music that is rich in the Spanish vocabulary.

I can recommend you the Mexican music is more complete in all vocabulary that you need to know for improve or practice your skills.

One of my favorite Spanish artists is La Oreja de Van Gogh. Their new album, "Cometas por el cielo" is really good. I really can't pick a favorite song off it; I love them all. Their older stuff isn't bad either. My favorite songs are "La playa," "Cuidate," "El 28" and "Jueves."

Other favorite artists are Maná, who has been mentioned, and Shakira, especially "Antes de las seis" and "Lo que más." The only thing about her is that she can be hard to understand because of her singing style.

More random faves:
Maná - Relax
Maná - Mi reina del dolor
Mechas - Alicia
La quinta estación - Que te quería
La quinta estación - Sin frenos
Manolo Garcia - Un giro teatral
Manuel Carrasco - Otoño, Octubre
Carlos Baute - Te regalo
Carlos Baute - Colgando en tus manos
El sueño de Morfeo - Depende de tí <--these guys sound a LOT like the Corrs if you like/remember them.

Also, if your listening comprehension is fairly good, you can find new music by listening to Spanish radio, making note of a few lyrics and plugging them into Google. That's how I find just about all the music that winds up on my MP3 player. Some of my favorites are:

Cadena 100 from Spain
Radio Malpaís from Costa Rica
Indy Radio from Seville, Spain
Elite Radio from Seville, Spain

[Carmen1985]

One I'm particularly into as of late is Roxanna. Roxanna has debuted her first music video for her song "Unforgotten" and it features actor James Scott! "Unforgotten" is also available in Spanish entitled "Para Siempre"! I definitely think Roxanna is an artist to watch and I can't wait to hear more of her music! Check out her video!

Probably my most favorite song in Spanish of all times. I know it by memory.

Luis Miguel - Sabor A Mi - YouTube

This is the part that really gets to me. Does not get anymore romantico que esto:

Pasarán más de mil años, muchos más
Yo no sé si tenga amor, la eternidad
Pero allá tal como aquí,
En la boca llevarás, sabor a mí.
