i'll admit it

Everyone has their guilty pleasure - a terrible band that they secretly like. Ok, so I will now admit in public, for all the internet to see, that amidst all the great musicians I am proud to say I am a fan of, that I also very much enjoy listening to some of the music of Enrique Iglesias. It's true...I'll admit it.

However, while you're laughing, and before you judge to harshly - he has been awarded TONS of awards for his music and was the first artist to perform a song in Spanish on Letterman. And people all over the world love him! My cab driver in Singapore was listening to Iglesias in Spanish when he drove us to the airport :)

Now granted, I'm not a fan of the fakey-drama in his music or the EXTREME pop-ness of it. But I like the songs in Spanish and the passion in Latino music.

So here's a song by him about his jacked up relationship with his dad, which I've enjoyed listening to on repeat. "Quizas" means "Perhaps"
