#RomanticTuesday 8-9-16

Hi everyone and happy Tuesday! I had a hard time deciding which song to pick for Romantic Tuesday so I picked two (Two for Tuesday?). The first song, “Can I have this Kiss Forever” is a duet with Whitney Houston and Enrique Iglesias. The song was released in 2000. More than 3 million copies in the U.S. were sold. The song also topped the charts in Switzerland and the Netherlands.

The second song, “Nunca te Olvidaré” (Never forget you) was the theme song for the Mexican telenovela (soap opera) “Nunca te Olvidaré” in 1999. Enrique Iglesias only sang in Spanish when he was starting his music career. I became familiar with his music in the early 90’s. Telenovelas are a huge deal for many Hispanic and Mexican households. My grandmother continues to watch them on a daily basis. Unlike American soap operas, Mexican novelas only last for a few months. Several American soap operas last for decades. There was a couple of telenovelas I enjoyed as a child. They’re no longer on my to-watch list. The second video includes the song in Spanish with lyrics in English. Have a great Tuesday, everyone! I might be back on Wednesday with 915 Art. If not, I’ll be back on Friday.

  16. LOL! I think it’s a natural gift. One day I think I’ll ask your parents.
    They’re such good people 🙂
    You know, I heard that they went all over TX with you looking for New Kids on The Block.
    Remind me? What thanks did they get?

  38. Now that it is clear what Lady G likes, I’m happy to see that her emergency alerts can spring up at any time, and anywhere. Next, I suppose she can turn a grey sky blue, or make it rain whenever she wants it to. 😉

  48. I do. I just think the second song is a better song. She sounds as good as she ever did. I just don’t think the song is all that great though.
