For the past few weeks I've been listening to flamenco. Specifically, I've been listening to Ojos de Brujo and the Gipsy Kings. My internet station generated other songs for me based on these two bands. And, it's been good. But in the middle of the week, I felt the need for a change.
I arrived at work on Wednesday and needed a change; this song was in my head. I love Juanes. just something about him and the way he sings speaks to me. When I selected Juanes, this song is the one my station played first. Maybe Pandora does know me....

Song of the Day: Thursday
Today was a bit kick back. I'm moving slowly between projects at work, which is good. I've had a headache all day. Ibuprofen did not help at all.
Music did ease some of the pain. I have bee listening to my Spanish music station. Ojos de Brujo, Gipsy Kings, flamenco, tango and its derivatives. Good stuff that helped me focus and kept me upbeat.
I was surprised to see Las Ketchup in the mix. They are know for this Spanglish pop song from 2002. Apparently they are the daughters of a flamenco musician. The chorus of the song is a mangled rewording of this song. "Aseraje" is the Spanish approximation of "I said a hip hop...." Interesting.
