Hi
For those who want to get cultured, this 6 time Grammy winning group is played wherever pirated music or cerveza is sold. You can listen to them at youtube or in the market.
wiki - ¨"In norteņo/conjunto form (a style featuring accordion that originated along the Texas border region), Los Tigres del Norte have been able to portray "real life" in a manner that strikes a chord with people across the Americas"
A favorite of mine is, De Paisano a Paisano. The most important part of the song is the soliloquy, in which the singer outlines some of the ways in which the Mexican immigrant has been mistreated.
Translation:
"Before I start my song I ask the boss, who
harvests your crops? who cleans your
hotels and restaurants? who gets killed working construction while you yell at us from your luxurious mansion? Often you do not pay us, and we come away poisoned by insecticides and deported if we protest.
I sing to rid the world of borders so that we might all live together as one nation with one flag."
Bye
