Mi Gente will be bigger than Little Mix's track in the long-term.

Just heard the new track from CNCO & Little Mix for the first time, its not really my thing, I just wish we can get over the Spanish theme and move on. This will be the 4th Spanish track in the chart by next week Descapito, Mi Gentie, Subreme...


Gosh, as a Spanish teacher that definitely hurt my eyes.

It is Despacito, Mi Gente and Subeme La Radio.

I hope the 'Spanish theme' remains in the charts for good somehow and the UK starts to be open for more varied music styles from now on.

Dude, try not to refer to Latino music as "Spanish theme". That's dumb.

Four songs on a chart of how many songs?

How ignorant. It's about time the UK charts were open to more languages like the rest of Europe.

I do think it's only a matter of time before the general public (in the UK at least) get sick of the over saturation of latin/reggaeton songs in the chart, I can't see it being a trend that lasts more than a year.

Most of it is actually sung in English and what's your point?

Sigrid seems destined to be a flopstar the way her first two singles have underperformed despite Radio 1 support. nocheer.gif

She's doing just fine. Don't Kill My Vibe spent almost two months in the top 100 and went top 40 on iTunes.

This is her debut. She's young and has so much potential. She will probably have a big collaboration lined up (The Chainsmokers are very eager to work with her) and blow up from there!

Spanish, not "Spannish". I guess being somewhat exposed to another culture is very bewildering to some which is not surprising considering they're not even capable of getting the spelling of the language right.

Erm, can we keep it civil please? If people don't like Spanish/Latin songs, that's fine. There's no deeper agenda or anything. No need to get personal or act so offended.

I really love that new Miley Cyrus song "Younger Now", best song she's ever made. She's becoming a more mature artist now.

I think that is a weird statement to make. Like, I can definitely understand people not liking reggaeton because that is a specific genre (and even so, ignorance can easily be noticed depending on the way people acknowledge the genre. "Spanish theme" is a cabal example of ignorance btw). But not liking Spanish/Latin music in general? Lol yea, there's definitely a "deeper agenda" in disliking music because of the language or the region it originated from.

I know obviously 90% of people sick of reggaeton songs are not being malicious or knowingly prejudiced and it is normal to dislike reggaeton -- in Latin America and Spain, it is not uncommon to see people hating those genres, just like you see people in the UK who hate top 40 pop. But personally I see the UK being open to foreign music as a very positive thing. Of course, the language barrier is a good reason to be uninterested in something -- I am usually not interested in Dutch or German music for example, since I don't speak those languages -- but the Spanish language songs that are popular in the UK right now all have so much English in them and are all special remix made especially to the English-speaking market so it is very easy to understand their theme and what they're about.

I think it will be more and more common to see reggaeton songs being huge all over the world because Spanish language music is huge in streaming. Like, "Reggaeton Lento" has 1 billion views on YouTube, that's more than any One Direction video. However, the genre per se can be tiring -- especially in Latin America/Spain, where there is no variety right now on the charts and it is everything reggaeton all the time. However, that is obviously not the case in the UK though. In this case, reggaeton is actually increasing variety.

It's stupid it's taken this long for Spanish songs to do well over here really, glad it looks like they're finally able to break through properly. So many huge songs that should've done so well over here but didn't ever do anything for some reason.
