    I'm not going to subject myself to it on purpose by listening... but in my experiences, "reggaeton" translates to "garbage".

    Ok no matter what's ure opinion regarding the song it's respected.HOWEVER, first let me clarfiy something to you, right now reggaeton is globally getting popular, so saying that i should post it on spanish boards, i dont see how it could help,i'm not asking about grammar corrections here, i'm inquiring about the music quality of the song. Second, lyrics are never in english in reggaeton songs... At last,since u're alleging that there r some grammar errors in the song, could u please point them out !

    The song is ok. I can't really judge on lyrics as I don't know Spanish. As far as the beat goes, its mediocre. Definatly not a hit, it doesn't make me want to get out on the dance floor, too subdued. Also, don't use the Chaka Demus and Pliers sample, way too overused and unoriginal. Best of luck to you!

    I have over 10k songs on my ipod......... Spans many generations and diff. languages.

    That said, I thought the song was ok, not good, not great........... meaning it did nothing for me and I wouldn't replay it. There's a lot of "ok" music out there. For that matter, there is a lot of great music out there, that never gets play.

    So if your question is, "do I like it?" - not really, sorry.

    If your question is will it get play - I have no idea.

    As I'm sure you are aware, most music, esp. in the younger market requires a complete package, luck, and drive. So, if you want to sell cd's and get pts. what does your cover look like? If you know what I mean..............

    No problem. I think you guys have a good beginning, and if you love the music then what better way than to create some of your own?

    On a side note, I'm not too big into the Raggaeton genre either, so perhaps what I thought was just ok is actually pretty decent to the average Raggaeton listener.

    My wifes latin so I have heard a good bit of Reggeaton from her and her sisters. I would say it is about average. I don't think it's a big hit or anything but it doesn't sound bad either. It could use more of a woman singing though. I think that would balance it better.

    It's okay but I think it's mainly because I really don't like the Reggaton genre.

    yes i agree with the last three decent opinions u wrote guys.. i wasnt the one who chose the lyrics or the music,i was collaborating on this project with the lead singer.I'm a perfectionist and in anything i get involved in , i usually make sure it's well done...Now in this case, i must say that i had no control over the song.It still matters to me to know what u people think of the song, simply because i'm involved.I guess my next project would surely not be involved with any singer.I usually dont folllow but lead.

    ure right ! but no doubt ive got the whole package.It might have been a mistake from my behalf to collaborate with singers... u cant predict the outcome since u dont lead.

    It was a mistake bringing it here if it isn't your best work.

    No offense, but it's the audience that will tell you if you have the whole package. You sound a bit like an "American Idol" contestant.

    Prove it............

    Sounds like you're using general midi sounds for your composition. Those sounds aren't going to cut it. The guitar sample 1:30 in is a nice touch. The vox delay in the beginning needs to be deeper, maybe run through a high pass filter. It's probably too long for radio by about 30 seconds. I'd fade the end.

    The lyrics work, it's the composition that needs help. Done right, this could be a decent song. Check my profile, btw.

    Happy composing.

    This could be turned into just about any style. Trust me on this.

    Do not feel bad about letting people hear what you did - it takes balls to put your music up for criticism. If you're gonna compose and write music, people are eventually gonna hear it and criticism is part of the deal.

    how do u want me to prove it to u? i just think that u shouldnt take it negatively if i am self-confident about myself.You gotta act as if in order to get somewhere in life..i'm 21..went into beauty night and was elected 1st runner up... i went into a singing competition back in my country and i was among the finals.I also value the fact that u gotta be smart and sharp to make cuz everybody's got a place..i'm bold and aggressive more than some men are.

    According to a billboard poll, except for English, songs in a specific language only are listened to repeatedly by people that speak them from birth. There are exceptions like the Labamba and others. A simple look at the Pop Charts bear this out. This is not to say you cant make a lot of money. So my recommendation for trying it on a Spanish forum comes from hard numbers. Plus it just makes sense. Ask the people who will be your main audience.

    Seriously!! And even that had to be translated in to an English song before it made it REALLY big.
