Help Identifying Popular Colombian Songs

I just crossed over into Brazil after about a month in Colombia, and I missed three things already - the 3 songs I heard EVERYWHERE in Colombia, but never thought to ask anybody about. Any help identifying singers/song names would be much appreciated!

All are by male singers btw & and while my spanish is pretty good, I have some sort of mental block for decyphering song lyrics, so apologies for anything I butcher...

Song 1: Lyrics are something like "mi amor, me abre con tu boca, mi amor" they´re advertising this record at the beginning of an exito commercial I believe, a younger male singer.

Song 2: Definitely bar anthem type song here "ay yai yai YAAAAI que ?bonito? es la vida!" 2 male singers, in the music video I think they´re singing in a truck while rolling around Colombia. Possibly they were nominated or won a latin grammy?

Song 3: I think this belongs in the cumbia genre, but don´t know for sure, pretty mellow song about (I think) a guy losing a girl that includes a lyric that is something like "now i know what its like to be on the other side of the fence (otro lado del cordon)"

thanks to anybody that can help!

Me Enamora
Que me que me eleves hasta el cielo

#2. Esta vida (Jorge Celedón)

#3. I'll keep an eye on this one since I listen to Tropicana Estéreo and La Vallenata online all day long.
