Lo siento muchísimo.I'm in Mexico, so I listen to this song everywhere. There's no escape from it and has been like that for months.
I guess I found something that makes me glad I'm not living in Mexico right now!

Hell no, this is one of the few songs of Summer I'm enjoying.
Fuck Drake, Fuck Iggy, Fuck Chainsmokers.
Bring more of it. Actual fucking music you can dance too.
Sounds like a throwaway song they'd use to transition to a new locale in a Fast and Furious movie.
Oh god. I'm not gonna entertain your semantics. Of course, culture and music is not uniform across all Spanish-speaking countries, but there ARE some homogeneities, one example being some genres of Spanish-speaking music that are enjoyed and popularized among many Spanish-speaking Latinos and countries (like Reggaeton, Salsa, Merengue, Latino Pop, etc). There is something to be said about how Bieber disrespected Latino music while using it to amplify his success. What are you even trying to defend here? You tried to say reggaeton doesn't represent an aspect of Latino culture, and that's ludicrous because it's widely enjoyed in many Latino countries.
Yeah, so like I had no idea Reggaeton came back. Remember back in the day when it came out and Hip Hop artists were teaming up with Reggaeton artists and they were saying it was the next big thing and mind you this was back in like 03-06. Didn't really go anywhere after a while though and it kind of fell of. Now it looks like it's back in full force but I have to say today's Reggaeton is pure trash. It's auto-tuned and sometimes heavily to the point where it's just bad. This song is that exception though and thanks to Justin Bieber it skyrocketed to being played on the main stations like Hot 99.5.
Word, Caribbean music of any kind is the best shit to dance to.
Reggaeton just becomes dormant before reactivating, similar to herpes.
That said, I'm not sure you could classify this as a reggaeton song. It's lacking the traditional rhythm line that is the defining feature of the genre, and favors Fonsi's melody far more than the rap part.
This isn't my usual style of music, but I'd be lying if I said it wasn't catchy as hell. It just is.
Lots of apparent assumptions in your post. I'm not white, far from it really lol and I wasn't referring to the Beiber version. If you think it's mediocre, so be it. I find it to be a good song, I don't understand the lyrics but it's catchy. Opinions what are they eh?That's too bad because as far as Spanish or Latino songs go, it's pretty mediocre.
I hate that some white Canadian boy appropriated upon and capitalized on Latin culture via this song in order for white people to finally give a shit about Latin music the past 5 years. It's not like he even respects the culture enough he's hijacking to learn the lyrics to his own song.
That's actually a good thing.I don't understand the lyrics
Lol reggaeton is a huge genre of Latino music, it's fun and dancy, and music is a part of culture. Ever been to a Latino club?
As a Colombian, though, it's sad when Americans dont pay enough attention to Shakira, Enrique Iglesias, Carlos Vives, Daddy Yankee, Celia Cruz, Selena, Paulina Rubio, Gloria Trevi, Alejandro Sanz, Juanes, or anybody else over the years despite them releasing great music just because it's in Spanish. The only one that regularly releases hits that English-speaking Americans eat up is Pitbull and that's because he started singing pop shit in English. Then Bieber comes along and fakes Spanish on some hit already established by Fonsi and Yankee, and NOW English-speaking American people think Latino music is cool on a scale they never considered before? Now Spotify crowns Bieber as a "Latin king"? Lol
There is a lot better latino music out there than Despacito but people weren't paying attention until Bieber shows up and makes it "cool" to the masses on a level not seen before, without having any respect for the culture himself (see him faking the lyrics at a party because he didn't bother to memorize the song that made him millions).
The video is nicely shot. Makes me want to go back to San Juan. They even made La Perla pretty.

For people that haven't heard this song, where do you live?
In Texas it's on literally every radio station and I've heard it in stores, restaurants, bars, etc.
This is pretty crazy. Didn't it take Gangam Style like 3 years to reach it?
Despacito song:

It's a nice tune but IMO Bailando was much better:

Bailando is also > 2B views.
See You Again is about to overtake Gangnam Style as the most viewed video on YT:

^It's a club/party song, women like shaking their asses to it. There's no mystery here people.
How El Sonidito didn't reach 3 billion views is beyond me. GOAT song
I'm in Mexico, so I listen to this song everywhere. There's no escape from it and has been like that for months.
Put me in the OG version better than the Bieber one.
El Sonidito deserves more, though: https://youtu.be/x47NYUbtYb0

Yeah it totally sounds as if it's a decade or so old. Totally forgettable.Make the blandest song that sounds like something from the 5-10 years ago. I don't get it.
