spanish songs...

i was just listening to a big portion of andrea bocelli's songs and then something suddenly clicked into my mind something about the feature, texture and style of the songs, though mostly were in spanish.

i had been intrigued when i was listening to josh groban's songs, spanish and english. i'm sure we are familiar with his songs 'To where you are' and 'You're still you' plus his newer songs. i was amazed at how these songs are written. they are just english songs, but the melody has a different twist in it that makes it outstanding. i was wondering and searching for this 'twist' and i think i found it.

the english songs has the 'twist' of spanish texture and style in it. andrea bocelli and josh groban have similar singing styles. maybe josh followed andrea's style. (i hope janice didn't read this) both are magnificent.

there are a few of andrea's english songs that just really stand out as well. and i believe the spanish 'twist' in the english songs are making a lot of difference. if not, we'll just be getting the normal boy band songs about love and break ups.
