After watching that video, damn fake-ass celebrity hispanics, they stole their clothes from the black people!

Please stop requesting this music on the radio.

Is this something people actually listen to on a regular basis? Or is it just big at parties and clubs?

But I agree, it's pretty awful either way.

You haven't visited Miami and listened to the radio there, right? :wink:

Are three of the biggest stations in Miami and all of them spin this shit. And I haven't even listed the spanish-speaking stations that play it either.

Do you realize they took away our 30+ year old mainstream rock station and replaced it with that Mega crap?? WITH NO WARNING!

:mad: :mad:

Would a warning have really made it any easier? :wink:

There are times when you do not have an iPod or a CD player handy, Mike.

Times like those, you're better off just imagining music you like rather than turning on the radio.

Even though I have my iPod connected to a speaker at work, my co-worker has the radio set to the three local stations that Pla mentioned before.


They play the same shit every hour all week long. :grumpy:

: points and laughs :

This is why it's better to work with old people that allow you to put the classic rock stations on. Alllllll day. :drool:

I think the problem is ClearChannel though. Seriously.
97.3 and 100.7 play the exact same rotation. Maybe they switch it up every few days, but it feels like they never try anything new. :shrug:
I can't be sure about Power 96 because I haven't voluntarily left it on for more than 5 minutes since about 1999.
And I'd die before Mega 94.9 was left on for more than .2 seconds.

Here in Honduras it´s truly EVERYWHERE. It´s pretty scary because you go to stores at the mall and you know what´s going to be playing on the radio. :huh:

I´ve actually grown a little more tolerant with reggeateon even though I was probably the biggest anti-reggeaton person here. I do like two or three songs which are pretty decent and when you are partying it´s kind of a good beat to dance to.

My problem starts when you´re driving in the car or just doing anything and that´s ALL that other people want to listen to. :tsk:

The other I was invited to the VIP area to the Daddy Yankee concert (otherwise I wouldn´t have bothered)(and we don´t get that many international artist´s concerts here so I went mostly to check out the "show") and I was so surprised to see that people knew most of the song and most of the verses - and the verses are rap style mind you, can you imagine how much time these thousands of people invested listening to this so as to have it memorized?.

I thought it would be some fad that would soon be going away but quite the oppossite, it seems that there are more artists come along and I think it´s growing in fan base. :huh:
 
Re: Re: Lyrical Analysis of Reggaetón

my sister loves this crap. it makes me want to commit mass murder.

i wasn't aware that there were multiple songs. i thought it was just one song, varied only by alternating a different number of spanish words.

Okay.

So, this is pretty much my new favorite song in the world.

You have obviously never rented a car (esp. without a cd player) before.
I'd rather listen to NPR or crazy Republican Radio Network (AKA every AM station on the US dial) than whatever BS is spinning on the FM playlists. :madspit:

Gasolina by Daddy Yankee is probably the most famous reggaeton song ever. Here is the first "verse" and then the hook.

Spanish
Zumbale el mambo pa'que mis gatas prendan los motores,
Zumbale el mambo pa'que mis gatas prendan los motores,
Zumbale el mambo pa'que mis gatas prendan los motores,
Que se preparen a lo que viene es pa'que le den, duro!

Mamita yo se que tu no te me va' a quitar (duro!)
Lo que me gusta es que tu te dejas llevar (duro!!)
Todo los weekenes ella sale a vacilar (duro!!)
Mi gata no para de janguiar (this is not real spanish. This is the way idiots would try to Spanglish "hang out") porque

A ella le gusta la gasolina (dame mas gasolina)
Como le encanta la gasolina (dame mas gasolina)

English
There's a lot of gasoline in the summer of mix 107.7
Raise the volume for this is a fine neighborhood!
(DADDY IDIOT!)

Dance the mambo so my pussies will start their motors
Dance the mambo so my pussies will start their motors
Dance the mambo so my pussies will start their motors
Dance the mambo so my pussies will start their motors
Prepare yourself for what's coming, it's worthy of a of a hard beating.

Mama, I know that you won't take me away (hard!)
What I like is that you allow it (hard!)
Every weekend she goes out to swing (hard!)
My pussy doesn't stop hanging out because...

She likes the gasoline (give me gasoline!)
She LOVES the gasoline (gimme more gasoline!)




It should be noted that gasoline is not petrol, diesel, oil or any other kind of fuel. Gasolina is slang for human male sperm.
I think I should repeat this, because things like this somehow seem like a cute joke between parents. "Oh my kids are dancing to reggaeton, it's just silly spanish music!"

No ma'am. It's so much more than that. :love:


So. Gasolina is male ejaculate. Repeat it with me, and then click this link just to make sure it has sunk in.


Thank you. :wave:



Oh my god... this is THE worst song ever. And now that I know what they are really singing about it makes it even worse... :sad: If that's possible....


The songs all sound the same to me. I mean, come on lets try to be original.. its a COMPLETE waste of radio air space :barf:
