Spanish Dancing Songs

[DRbride]

I wanted to know if anyone can help me out. I'm trying to find some energetic Spanish / Latin songs that will get everyone dancing. I love salsa music and anytime I'm somewhere and its being played, everyone is up and dancing like crazy. I would like to want to put a couple songs onto my playlist and wanted to know if anyone had any suggestions.

 

Thank You!!!

there are tons of 80s and early 90s hits on it, some of them are just effing hilarious, but i must admit, i know the words to a lot of them already since he's been playing it so much lately!

Check out Juanes or Manu Chao! (J is Colombian (i think) and Manu is a mix of Spanish/French and something else, but they both sound very latin)

oh this is great! i'm going to check this out when i get home tonight. thanks girls!!

[can't wait!]

You have to put Celia Cruz's "La Vida es un Carnaval" on your CD. It ALWAYS gets people out of their seats and on the dance floor.

 

Also, a really popular Mexican pop/rock band is called "Mana". They are awesome and some songs have a Carribbean feel to them.
