Guess who's at No 1 in the UK?

Enrique Iglesias Singing 'Hero'

He's very handsome. and I like the song. But not sure he fits into the 'best Spanish Singer' category.

thanks everybody for your comments.and you all also have good tastes

I vote for Júlio Iglesias .

So, MadridMan! Did you put yourself into the last age category on Mr Iglesias' website? And have you received any further information?

He gets my vote too, but I prefer to look at Enrique

Swoon . . .

As far as quality of voice, I'd STILL vote for Júlio over Enrique anyday, but I do own a couple of Enrique's CDs -- only the Spanish ones. Now that (it seems) he on to English only songs I won't buy any more of them. The same with Ricky Martin -- I only own a couple of his Spanish CDs and will pass on the new ones with only one or two Spanish songs on them.

Okay, I'll have to disagree on Rosario Flores. While I think she has some talent she has a long way to go to have a quality voice (I'm no expert, okay?). Rosana would be UP there for me and even the now defunct (I think) Ella Baila Sola 2-female group. Presuntos Implicados always sounds very pure to me as does the voice of Ismael Serrano and Paco Bello.

Saludos, MadridMan

thanks again.i agree with madridman,ella baila sola.i got plenty of dvds on those two talented woman.about rosario sorry guapetona but i dontlike her that much.

Maybe if you listen to her sing Lucia on Serrat..Eres unico..then you'll change your minds. Just listen to her sing that song and you'll see what I mean!

Unfortunately her brother was the one who used to write her songs (Antonio Flores) and they were amazing! After his overdose her "letras" have never been the same. It just doesn't have the same magic. But, get the old music..please!

dont worry guapetona i will listen to rosarios lucia.
hey you might be right and i may be wrong.

I vote for Amaia Montero, lead singer from the band La Oreja de Van Gogh .

I'd like to clarify my above posting, voting for Júlio Iglesias, please. I'd only vote for him IF he was eating Lucky Charms while the singing competition was taking place. (that was for you, Mama chula )

Camaron

hi everybody

madridman i second your vote on julio iglesias anytime eating cereal or eating paella or anything.hes a great singer.oh and whose camaron never heard much about him.

Camarón de la Isla has been considered the best flamenco singer from all times... a singer with a special give.

2nd vote to Alejandro Sanz!! but hope he has chosen the wrong single because I don't really like no es lo mismo!!! :S:S:S

What ever happened to Jose Luis?

Carlos11, maybe I'm wrong but I think José Luis is American Latino and not Spanish - but I realize he sings IN Spanish. Another NON-Spaniard which I REALLY like is NEK , actually an Italian singing in beautiful castillian. I imagine the Spanish-language singing market is MUCH larger than that in the Italian language.

But of the Spaniards, I VOTE A BIG VOTE for Ismael Serrano !!

Saludos, MadridMan
