Thank you! BTW, I love how Argentine and Spanish musicians have always been in tune with each other. Even several famous Argentine musicians have lived (and succeeded) in Spain: Moris, Rubi, Calamaro, Ariel Rot, Federico Aubele... As I said in this thread some months ago, the golden age of Spanish-language pop and rock began in Madrid with two Argentines and three Spaniards in 1978. Tequila!! Thanks to these boys under the "blessed" musical influence of the colossal Chuck Berry and The Rolling Stones, rock in Spanish finally became a massively-successful event for the whole Hispanic world. I still remember that chorus ♫ "Me voy.... me voy... me voy de casaaaaa...." ♫

Me vuelvo loco ("I'm Losing my Mind") and Me voy de casa ("I Leave the Nest")

And in the 90's, Los Rodríguez. Amazing band too:

Mi enfermedad ("My Disease")

"Estoy vencido porque el mundo me hizo así......I've lost heart because the world made me this way.
No puedo cambiar.............I can't change.
Soy el remedio sin receta..........I am the medicine without a recipe
y tu amor mi enfermedad.........and your love is my disease.
Estoy vencido porque el cuerpo de los dos.........I've lost heart because this body, mine and yours,
es mi debilidad........is my weakness.
Esta vez el dolor va a terminar.............This time, pain is gonna end.
