This are the lyrics so you can sing along!

Dame el tiempo para conocerte un poco más,

aeropuertos ya nos separaron y no volverá a ocurrirnos,

por eso estoy tranquilo, yo quiero desnudarte!

Por tu espalda corren cientos de deseos míos,

cientos de variantes para  amarte.

Un distante y cítrico mensaje  vuelve a amenazar,

ya sabemos como resolverlo ya pasamos mas de una lección de riesgo,

por eso estoy tranquilo, yo quiero desnudarte

Por tu espalda corren cientos de deseos míos,

cientos de variantes para  amarte.

Demostrame que tenes lo que yo interpreto,

de tu cuerpo no se escapa mas!!

Por tu espalda corren cientos de deseos míos,

cientos de variantes para  amarte.

How’d you do? It’s really important to practice your Spanish listening with how people really sound, accent and all! In fact, training your ear is one of the most important steps to learning a language, because once you can understand people, you will start getting new words, grammar, and sentence structure.

That’s what so special about Bueno, entonces…Learn Spanish I & II- a program unique in its format and structure. It teaches you Spanish at REAL speed, and gets your ears ready for talking folks on the street.

PLUS: You’ll hear Spanish while seeing both the Spanish and English written below, color coded and with road signs so you can pick up grammar and vocabulary easily.

Best thing of all? You can take it ANYWHERE – on your laptop, iPhone, iPad, and iPod. Check out the first Bueno, entonces… class for free & get a discount!:http://www.generallinguistics.com

Hello everyone, I hope you all had a great weekend even thought it’s Monday! But guess what we have some great music to cheer you up.

Today we are listening to an Argentinean band: Los Pericos. This band was founded in the late 80’s, by a group of friends that loved reggae music. In 1987 they became famous when they opened a concert for UB40 at River Plates Stadium in front of 50,000. Since then they haven’t stop releasing cds. “Me late” (It beats) was one of the most successful hits from the 90’s in all of South America, making them so big that Jamaica officially designated them as the official reggae ambassadors in Argentina. In their almost 21 years of carrer they have sold over 2,000,000 records  and 1,500 live performances around the world.

So listen to them, and sing along, to this successful single “Me Late”.

Anoche salí (soñé) con una mujer
de esas que nunca se olvidan, no, no.

Wha, wha, y no pude dormir.
Wha, wha, y no pude dormir.

Yo creía que todo,
que todo era el final;
que ya nadie podría,
hacerme sentir igual, no, no.

Por suerte amigos,
yo me equivoqué,
todavía me queda,
mucho por recorrer.

Me late, me late,
me late el corazón,
tengo taquicardia,
ay si Señor.
Me late, me late,
me late el corazón,
tengo taquicardia,
ay si Señor, no, no.

Hay pulso, hay pulso,
oh no, no,no,no,no.
Hay pulso, hay pulso.

Anoche salí con esa mujer,
que me hizo ver las estrellas,
anoche salí con esa mujer,
que me sacó del planeta.

Wha, wha,
y no pude dormir.

Que linda minina que tengo en Panamá.
Que linda minina que tengo en Panamá.

Happy Music Monday! For today we have some cuban Hip Hop from the band Orishas with their song El Kilo(2005). They have been around for 12 years, making themselves famous in Europe and Latin America.They’ve sold close to a million copies of their three albums, and won several awards including 2 Grammys. Their music is charged with deep lyrics, sticky beats, and that latin flavor that makes them unique. So enjoy them and sing along with Orishas, a perfect way to start your week!

Want to follow along with the lyrics? See them below and practice your comprehension:

Lyrics to El Kilo :

WARNING: STEAMY VOCAB AHEAD. This may not be office appropriate.

We pride ourselves in providing the most useful Spanish phrases, so here is some important vocabulary that we hope you have a chance to utilize at some point (looks like David already has) :

Tenés/Tienes condones? Sí­, tengo condones/preservativos. Do you have condoms? Yeah, I have a condoms. 

Eso es una locura. This is crazy

Más fuerte Harder

Despacito / mí¡s lento. Slower

Despacito / suavecito. Softer

¿Estás acabando / terminando / llegando? Are you coming?

Estás tomando pastillas? Are you on the pill?

La pastilla del dí­a despúes / dí­a siguiente. Morning After Pill

Fue increí­ble. That was incredible

¿Dónde está mi ropa? Where are my clothes?

La pasó muy bien. I had a good time

Now that is the kind of learning Spanish program that we can really get behind. Just try that with Rosetta Stone…

Be safe. Be responsible. Be bilingual.

It just makes life so much easier.

(Check out more clips from our Spanish classes on our Youtube page!)

Seriously, out with the sweetness. It’s disgusting.
