Spanish Song Lyrics Online Archives Launched

Ana Cristina Insuratelu
As music in Spanish becomes an international standard rivalled only by English, and as more and more Spanish and Latin American singers and bands choose to combine Spanish and English as well as to modernize and internationalize their styles to attract the whole of the Western world, millions in non Spanish speaking countries have developed a taste and interest for Spanish language music.

This makes them want to know the text of the Spanish songs they like, even if their Spanish is not so good. In fact, this whole development has resulted into a renewed interest to learn Spanish, as it is noe clearly perceived as the second most important language in the world. But even those who know very little Spanish wish to know more about the singers they like and the lyrics of the songs they love.

For the first time ever a great publishing effort has been conducted to gather thousands of top Spanish language songs. This is how the Spanish Song Lyrics (http://www.spanishsonglyrics.org) site has been born. Carefully chosen by music experts, the songs included in this archive appeal to all ages and tastes. Spanish linguists have reviewed the way the texts have been treated, while the interface and general informations are in English and targeted at an international audience of music lovers who wish to know more about their Spanish and Latin American idols.

The Spanish Song Lyrics online archive contains already over five thousand song lyrics, from oldies to the latest hits and from Spanish and Latin American floklore to the newest pop, rock, house and rap music in Spanish. From flamenco, cumbia, merengue, bachata or corrido lyrics to the most vibrant hard rock bands and romantic soloists or bands, the Spanish Song Lyrics has it all. The site also caters for its non English speakers as the main explanations are also available in four other languages.

Frequently updated with the best of Spanish songs, this online archive has been welcome by the online community, who have already produced a large traffic and a permanent flow of further song lyrics requests and comments. The Spanish Song Lyrics site is a proof of the increasing importance of Spanish language and culture around the world.
