We start with Despacito by Luis Fonsi – admittedly, a classic, maybe even cliché. But I would be the first to admit that despite grooving to this song WAY too many times, I have never paid much attention to the lyrics and even if I did, never thought about what they meant. However, every time someone gets to know that I am a student of español, the first thing they ask me is “So you understand the lyrics to Despacito?”. And now I can proudly say that yes, yes I do.
