I am a bit of a fan of Spanish-language music in general. And, since I'm here, there's something special in Colombia in particular for me.
So far I know two songs that I think are really great, make-one-cry kind of great. One is "Pajaro Amarillo" and another is "Hola Soledad".
Know any other?

kalder says on Mar 30, 2008, 04:27: Well, it's not actually Colombian (I think it's Spanish), but you used to hear it a lot over there. I think it's called 'Cross of Razorblades'. Plaintive stuff about an affair, female singer. For reasons of association, it gets me every time. If anyone knows anything about it, I'd love to hear. "kalder- have you ever had a woman?"--Sam Salmon |
