For example:
"Dimelo (which translates to "Tell Me") sounds lovely in Spanish, but it would make for an awkward, somewhat nonsensical song in English.



With a poem, there is no accompanying soundtrack in which to convey sentiment though; Which would make pulling off that sort of feat much more difficult, I would think.

Seriously ? Enrique?

Thena is Wacky

Yeah well, people who like The Ting-Tings probably shouldn't throw stones. Tongue

Just for doing that, you're getting another one: The English version of "Ritmo Total".
Enjoy!
