My choice for this Foreign Music Friday is the song "Esperanza" by Enrique Iglesias. When this song came out and when I originally heard it, Enrique Iglesias wasn't well known in the US. I think his first popular song here was "Bailamos" which came out a couple of years after this was released. This song was released on the album "Cosas del Amor" which is E.I.'s best album by far (yes, I'm proud to admit that I own a few of his other albums). His English music is ok, but if you can look past his gay Spanish accent, you'll notice that his Spanish music is on a whole different level.

gay spanish accent? are you comparing it to the beautiful guatamalan spanish accent? i hope not. no way that trashy spanish sounds better than spain. i dont think all enrique english music is bad. did you hear the escape album? his slow stuff, like 'hero,' was lame and cheesy, but some of the other stuff was pretty good.
