Romeo Santos, “Necio”
I must admit that I have a soft spot for this Bachata song, “Necio” (Foolish). It is not more of the same but at a higher level, where pop music becomes great art: music, lyrics, the voice of Romeo Santos are so tantalizing to dance to. The shifts in the rhythm are quite a challenge for dancers at intermediate level.
At the end you have three videos: With lyrics in Spanish/English, lyrics in Spanish only, and the official video.
