Spanish songs are some of our favourites, and Spanish speaking heartthrobs have set our hearts afire oh so many times.
For some of us, the amount of Spanish we can speak is limited to high school vocab sheets or the chorus from a catchy Spanish song. I mean, who hasn't looked up the lyrics and translations to every single Ricky Martin song sung in Spanish? Oh, just us then...
Whether you're a fan of the dance moves, the toned topless dancers or the bonkers video productions, here are a few of the Spanish music videos we love and love to hate...
Javiera Mena – Espada
The song is so catchy, and the video is so, so strange that we can’t even put it all into words. Our favourite moments include a magically appearing arm, a giant wagging tail and a cameo from a pig snout. Enough said.
Enrique Iglesias – Bailando
We challenge you to listen to this song and not move your hips. It’s so darn good and literally reeks of a hot, sexy Spanish summer. Plus, who doesn’t love a good dance battle?
…and then there’s Enrique. Singing in Spanish. With those arms. Redefining the term BABE. Drool…
Los del Rio – Macarena
It’s so fabulously 90s. The fashion is horrible, it’s so corny and there was clearly a very small production budget. We don’t think anyone expected it to become such a hit. Don’t act like you don’t know the moves because you definitely do…
Selena – Como la flor
Selena was a goddess and we love watching her in black and white, regardless of how many unnecessary close up flower shots they stuck in between.
Shakira & Alejandto Sanz – La Tortura
Sorry X-Tina, but you need to watch this video and see how dirty is really done. Shakira is next level sexy with her signature belly roll and mane of glorious hair, and that’s just while she’s chopping the veggies…
Ricky Martin – Livin la Vida Loca
We loved it in English, and it sounds even sexier in Spanish. To be honest, we would love Ricky Martin shakin his bon bon in any language, and he will forever be on the top of our heartthrob list.
