And that's only the tip of the iceberg!! In fact, this should be a complete guide to Spanish-language music for beginners. Keep in mind that Music Banter is the best music board on the Internet, so we should measure up.

--------------------------------

*M Clan (since 1993). Rock. Antihéroe ("Antihero", 2002) and Carolina (2001):




Sopa fría ("Cold Soup", 2004) and Llamando a la Tierra ("Calling the Earth", 1999, a cover of Steve-Miller-Band's Serenade):




And now, another song by awesome indie band Havalina: Objetos personales ("Personal Belongings", 2010).
