It is too close to Christmas music time to not note Jose Feliciano’s “Feliz Navidad”. It is a very popular piece that is easily recognizable with just the opening instrumental. The feel of the music is very upbeat and with the guitar taking a lead in the background instrumentals while the vocalist accompanies with some cheers and whoops between verses.

Another piece I really enjoyed from this region was Como La Flor by Selena. She was a famous Latin icon, and this piece really is a beautiful tune. Como La Flor or like the flower has a softer instrumental in the beginning but once the opening verse is done it picks up with a polyrhythmic beat and lots of accompanying beats. Her lower sultry voice has a more upbeat tone quality to it as the verses go on.
