Mexican singer Lila Downs sings soulfully about the fictional character, Naila and how, after betraying her lover, she cannot be “Naila for you anymore.”

In legendary Puerto Rican salsa singer Héctor Lavoe's 1976 hit, "Periódico de Ayer," Hector compares an ex-flame's love to yesterday's news. This is truly "classic" salsa that is known and loved throughout the Spanish speaking world and beyond — a must for any serious student of latin culture.

Latin alternative band, Momposónica's song, "Volver," speaks about longing for a former flame.

The Mexican pop band La Gusana Ciega sings "727," a song about how letting go can allow you to soar. This video also documents the life on the road.

Listing the reasons it's not working anymore can help you move on. So can counting down from ten, and agreeing it's over when you reach zero. Enjoy this lovely break-up salsa!

This boy band may be underage, menores, but they are pretty sure they are ready to fall in love, a feeling that their screaming fan base is willing to reciprocate.

Karamelo Santo performs a new version of perhaps their best known song... "Nunca, que no digan nunca" may be translated as "Never... say never," but Karamelo Santo's ska-infused sound is about as far from Justin Bieber's as you can get.

Enjoy a live performance by Alberto Barros and other famous salsa singers. They display amazing energy and good vibes interpreting the tribute song "Cargamento Colombiano".

Enjoy the music video for the song "Chau" by No te va a gustar, a rock band from Uruguay also known by its initials NTVG. Featuring a cute girl and her origami robot, this video is sweet but quite sad at the end.

Depedro is the stage name of Spanish musician Jairo Zavala and also the title of his debut album. Before going solo, Zavala had already enjoyed a productive career as a singer, guitar player, and founder of the rock band Vacazul. Listen to his song La Memoria. It's a little gloomy but, hey... who isn't a little tired?

Ozomatli's song, "Jardinero" can translate as "Landscaper" or "Gardener." It's about the harsh and present reality that many people face of leaving family behind because of all the love they have for them.

Colombian musician Alberto Barros, better known as Salsa's Titan, offers us, along his band, one of the most famous salsa songs: "Cali pachangero".

Colombia's Aterciopelados ("The Velvety Ones") delivers another smooth song with a political message. This time, the band questions immigration policies and asks who has the right to dream of a better life.

From the mouth of lead vocalist Liliana "Li" Saumet, salt water sounds like "agua salá" or "agua sala'a". The Caribbean accent is just part of the smooth rounded sound from Colombia known as Bomba Estéreo, a band that blends traditional cumbia with other musical influences.

Jarabe de Palo's bearded frontman, Pau Donés, invites fellow Spanish rock star, Alejandro Sanz, to join him in this super sweet love song.
