I said the main singer is P'rican and the others are mixed.......he said it on Depierta America and on el show de medio dia, there are other members in the band who are mixed just because he sings it who's to say he's singing about himself...how many "bachateros" are actually singing about there personal issues and or selves granted many are but many are just singing from stories od friends or what not....I can be wrong but I'm 98% positive......hey who cares they are bringing the rating of Bachata way up....and our modernizing it.....and they're nice to look at.....

Lissy: i think it's the opposite. They're all Dominicans, except for the lead singer who is half p'rican and half Dominican - His father is Dominican and his mother boricua. See here Anthony Santos

I agree with you, though. As long as they're expanding the popularity of the genre I don't care if they're from Siberia.

Default My favorites

1. My all-time favorite is so because it is the first bachata song I heard that made me say " I have got to get that song!". It is " Que me la Devuelva" by Raulin Rodriguez. Since then just about anything by Raulin or Antony Santos. Two newer songs have actually jumped on the list of my all-time favorites: "Porque lo Hiciste?" by Antony Santos and "Amiga Veneno" by Zacarias Ferreira.

2. Is it just me or were there actually NO BACHATAS on "Bachata Rosa"? What a piece of crap. Not true bachata.


3. Can we stop throwing that "nigga" word around?

I just love playing batchata in my car. Best memories from:

Amiga Veneno - Zacharias Ferreira
Obsesion - Aventura

Other good songs:

Nada de Nada - Frank Reyes
Novia Mio - Zacharias Ferreira
Maestra - Elvis Martinez

What about women singing batchata?

Most "bachateras" are in a duo.....there's this one chic that did a duo with Luis Vargas....her name is Valeria....she's good but I'm not sure if she has her own cd or what...but she gives Alexandra (de Monchi & Alexandra) a run for her money



Minni- the title is right Asi te amo...but I'm talking about the older version that Teodoro did....el siego de Nagua
