Great list Panam! You're the best finding hidden gems!

PS. They reaaally like Manzanero, huh?

Blanco

Have you tried http://web.archive.org/ ? Maybe it can help.

Also, I think there's one song missing in the setenta's songs, because there are only 23 songs overall.

Great find, Panam!

Blanco

Haha naa, I don't hate that song. I'm trying to be impartial with my comments. Actually I think it has really good lyrics. At most, I use personal comments to justify objective points. It is faster. But believe me, everything I say is based on a meticulous analysis of Latin American music done over ...

Blanco

Oh man, there's so much to say... But I will not comment on every song, just that ones I really feel need to be changed. 1 Pedro Vargas - Bésame mucho (Consuelo Velásquez) 2 Los Fabulosos Cadillacs - Matador 3 Soda Stereo - De música ligera 4 Santana - Oye como va 5 Trío Matamoros - Lágrimas negras ...

I don't know what to do with these: Ok, here are my choices for specific versions: Pedro Vargas - Bésame mucho Cuco Sánchez - Toda una vida Los Indianos - Recuerdos de Ypacaraí Marimba Chiapas - Dios nunca muere Eydie Gorme & Los Panchos - Flores negras Lila Downs - Quizás, Quizás, Quizás José Moji...

I like your list. Many songs that we forgot. Although I'm not pretty sure if we need to include composers when most of them never recorded their songs. Thanks! What I am trying to do is to give acclaim to the song itself, not to a specific version. Bésame mucho is the clearest example: In most list...

Done! 1. Los Fabulosos Cadillacs - El Matador 2. Violeta Parra - Gracias a la vida 3. Consuelo Velázquez (composer) - Bésame mucho 4. Carlos Gardel - El día que me quieras 5. Joan Manuel Serrat - Mediterráneo 6. Santana - Oye Como Va 7. León Gieco - Sólo Le Pido A Dios 8. Mocedades - Eres tú 9. Trío...

Blanco

Haha Sorry guys, my job has been consuming my time longer than usual.
Give me a few hours.

Blanco

So, we can add Spanish songs as well?

I like really much how the list is going. I'm not so convinced with a few songs, but I will wait to see how much the overall list changes with my own selections.

Blanco

Hi Blanco, I'm fine and you? Some things came before this update, like the main list's update (top 5200 songs) and the album's list (top 2000 albums). But the brazilians list update will happen soon, I selected more than 300 songs. And as it happens, I'll post it here. Ok, ok. I will wait almost pa...

Bruno wrote:I'd say that new update will bring 400 new songs and many popular brazilian's genres: sertanejo, pagode, samba, mpb, pop/rock, etc.

Hey Bruno, how are you? I came back and searched for your site and there have not been an update, man. Hope everything's ok.

Blanco

Great List!
It's great to see Los Saicos in a few lists lately.

panam, thanks but what I meant was to include only the "Explore the music" songs. Those could be seen as recommended/chosen songs from each Latin music style, while the songs from the show aren't. For example, clip 7 of the first episode begins with songs by The Beatles while the interviewed person...

Hmm... Strange that this song it's in the selection.

btw, hello Panam. Nice to see other Latin American music supporters in the forum!

Prediction: Smells Like Teen Spirit ends up being the number one song of all time according to AM this year or next. Yeah, I think that too. But who knows. Henrik said this in 2014 : Here are the "scores" for the top 25 albums and songs, to give you an idea of which albums/songs that have a good ch...

I will take Brazil, but if Blanco wants it I will happily defer. No problem! I will take Mexico as my first option. Then Cuba Chile (But if Dan or someone else prefer this country, I have no problem) Colombia I am sure that someone with more knowledge from Spain will choose that option soon. If som...

I think so, I could not say I'm 100% sure as I didn't really check all your posts (as I assumed you did your job correctly until I found the Colombian list :mrgreen: ). Yeah, I had also thought that. :angry-banghead: Is it... absolutely necessary to include a list featuring Julio Iglesias? :? :whis...

I wonder if the last Yo La Tengo album, Stuff Like That There will appear sometime soon in the chart. I hope so!

Oh, my 666th post! Now i'm the beast! Time to listen Iron Maiden.

I would have liked to join the World Music/Folk team but I can see that maybe is too crowded by now. I would have preferred that you had chosen the World Music/Folk team, Honorio. But I respect your decision. If I remember well, some of you commented on the "There She Goes" thread that it was fun t...

Perhaps in this case you could say it in French. I would not mind using a translator. I know it's not the same, but I think it is preferable to nothing.

Yes!
Luney6, count me for "World Music / Folk" and "Avant-Garde", please.

Yeap, I'm only voting the brackets with my own nominations. Sorry for that. This has been a busy week.

It's perfect now. Thanks.

I have a big screen, and while the font is indeed bigger, the site as a whole is not. For example, I see "Artists|Countries|Genr Home|" (That is, "Genre" without the last "e"). Or in the list by artist the letters appears as: " # A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z " In other words, ...

I love how now we can see the albums and songs lists by country. Yeah!

Blanco

And there is no one on this planet and no one on this site who could make a comprehensive list about songwriters encompassing all languages, unless you want to go by hearsay. Rolling Stone comes from an English language speaking country. To bad, but do many Spanish lists of the type include any son...

Sounds like the chorus of a good song! Are we seeing the next Spanish hit? Maybe. Who knows?!

Blanco

They probably shouldn't have labeled the list "...of All Time," as that raises questions about omissions like Berlin, Cole Porter, the Gershwins, Rodgers & Hart, Ellington, etc. (basically, anyone to whom Ella Fitzgerald's devoted an album). I think most people seeing the list will mentally revise ...

Coincidentally, right now I'm in a Zappa fanaticism season that I had not felt since my high school years. That guy was great.

Come on guys, the forum is to discuss and comment! The title seems somewhat sensationalist, I agree. The article seems unusual for me and I expected some comment in favor or against. For my part, I have found it funny. I think that, just like Haruki Murakami says, it does not matter a large vocabula...
