‘Despacito’ …. “🇵🇷 Luis Fonsi featuring Daddy Yankee 🇵🇷 …. first song primarily in Spanish to top the Billboard Hot 100 since 1996 …. “!!

‘DESPACITO’

I must confess that I didn’t become aware of this song until Angelika, my oldest grand-daughter told me about it.

I started paying attention and now it’s hard to get away from it.

It’s become a ‘brainworm’.

Brainworm
Getting a song (usually one you dislike) stuck inside your mind that repeats endlessly.

I do like the song.

The main reason is because it’s an awesome hit for two well-known Puerto Rican singers, each one in their own category.

Their work together in this project has become worldwide known … inspiring covers and parodies.

Go, Puerto Rico!!

“Despacito” (English: “Slowly”) is a single by Puerto Rican pop artist Luis Fonsi featuring Puerto Rican rapper Daddy Yankee from the former’s upcoming studio album.

On January 13, 2017, Universal Music Latin released “Despacito” and its music video, which shows both artists performing the song in the La Perla neighborhood of Old San Juan, Puerto Rico and the local bar La Factoría.

The song was written by Luis Fonsi, Erika Ender and Daddy Yankee, and was produced by Andrés Torres and Mauricio Rengifo

It is a reggaeton-pop song composed in common time with lyrics about having a sexual relationship, performed in a smooth and romantic way.

Commercially, the song topped the charts of 45 countries and reached the top 10 of 9 others, making it both Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s most successful single to date.

It became the first song primarily in Spanish to top the Billboard Hot 100 since “Macarena” (Bayside Boys Mix) in 1996.

It brings back memories of summer as the fall season beings.

Ricky Martin and Maluma’s “Vente Pa’Ca” has us feeling like it’s summer all over again.

After snapping a selfie together and blasting it on social media, the two hot Latin superstars host an epic beach party at the SLS Hotel in Miami Beach where they party it up Miami-style.

The clip was directed by Jessy Terrero.

The party track with a reggaeton beat was originally titled “Some Kind of Dream” in English and was written in Scandinavia by Anne Judith Stokke Wik, Ronny Vidar Svendsen, Nermin Harambasic, Justin Stein, Lars “Chief One” Pedersen  and Carl Ryden.

For the Spanish-language track, Mau Y Ricky Montaner penned the lyrics.

We ALL are ONE!! 

At the end of the day …. “Live like you were dying”!!

~~December 9, 2014~~ 

Every day we wake up to our own personal daily routine. We have plans for the day and we have things to do during the week, during the month, next summer, next year. What we don’t frequently realize is that life can change in a blink of an eye. Planned projects may have to be scrapped and another direction be chosen. 

All of a sudden, the direction of your life goes on a tangent. We need to be prepared. The worst would be that our time on Earth is done. 

“When a moment came that stopped me on a dime”

Take each day as it comes and “live like you were dying”.

Tim McGraw‘s Christmas memory was a life changing one. He explained that while looking through his mom’s closet for presents one year he found his birth certificate, which revealed that his last name was not Smith like he had thought, but McGraw. That moment led him to find out that his real dad was not who he thought, but instead was the baseball player Tug McGraw.

~~LYRICS~~

He said …. 

I was in my early forties
With a lot of life before me
When a moment came that stopped me on a dime

I spent most of the next days, looking at the x-rays
Talking bout the options and talking bout sweet time

I asked him when it sank in
That this might really be the real end
How’s it hit ‘cha when you get that kind of news?
Man, what’d ya do?
And he said

I went skydiving
I went rocky mountain climbing
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
And I loved deeper
And I spoke sweeter
And I gave forgiveness I’d been denyin’

And he said, Someday I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dyin’

He said, I was finally the husband
That most the time I wasn’t
And I became a friend, a friend would like to have

And all of a sudden goin’ fishin’
Wasn’t such an imposition
And I went three times that year I lost my dad
Well I, I finally read the good book
And I took a good long hard look
At what I’d do if I could do it all again
And then

I went skydiving
I went rocky mountain climbing
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
And I loved deeper
And I spoke sweeter
And I gave forgiveness I’d been denyin’

And he said, Someday I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dyin’

Like tomorrow was a gift
And ya got eternity to think about what to do with it
What did you do with it?
What did I do with it?
What would I do with it?

Skydiving
I went rocky mountain climbing
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
And I loved deeper
And I spoke sweeter
And I watched an eagle as it was flyin’

And he said, Someday I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dyin’

To live like you were dyin’
To live like you were dyin’
To live like you were dyin’
To live like you were dyin’
