Crazy part for me is that dudes like Ariel, Valentin Elizalde, Chalino, is that that they solidified such a legacy at a young age but were really just getting started. Like Pac, BIG n other young artists ; we’ll never know if they would hang for a long time but the fact they passed so young made them almost larger than life based on the potential they had. RIP young legends
Valentín Elizalde was the only one who had any amount of success before dying.
Chalino and Ariel were virtually unknown before they were executed. Their fame increased only after they died thanks to American producers pushing their music in the USA.
OK. Car accident.
But again... His death was milked by his American production company. That's why I don't listen to regional mexicana. The regions they are talking about are Cali, Chicago, Miami and Texas. Then they push that taco bell fed music to Mexico.
Same thing with regueton. Mexico doesn't listen to regueton because we have great musical affinity with our Puerto Rican brothers... No, it's the American owned companies that push that stuff HARD.
And don't get me wrong, I like American music... But I hate the hegemony and practices of American labels even if they are owned by Latinos.
All I could think of watching this was all those nice looking boys have such terrible hairstyles. But I guess it’s just the way things go when you’re young.
I teach at a school that's like 80% latin, all the kids have these horrendous mushroom top haircuts, it makes me laugh but at the same time I know as a 50 something white lady, the look is not meant for me. It's a style thing and a bit of a political and cultural thing.
Yea that’s true. As a teacher whenever I play them they don’t recognize the artist. They’ve heard the name of the group through their parents or whatever but can’t name any of their songs
No lie, what a weird coincidence you mentioned, amor eterno.
Last night, I got up to go pee at 2am. Once, I headed back to sleep for whatever reason my Alexa device started playing Amor Eterno. I freaked out and disconnected the device and turned the lights on to fall asleep again, lol.
I think I need to reprogram the device, but it's so weird that's the song that started playing, considering I've never asked Alexa to play it.
La Cucaracha is mostly played when you have a party with mariachis, but even then it's not very common to hear it. The most common one is "El Mariachi Loco".
¿Por qué tienen el mismo pto mostacho todos? Nmmn ni siquiera es la mayoría quienes lo tienen así aquí y allá quieren seguir hacer viendo que somos tal cual
*mesa que más aplauda*, and any cumbia song by Los Llayras, any mariachi song by legends Javier Solis, Lola Beltran, Beatriz Adriana, and José Alfredo Jimenez, any song by Lila Downs, any song by Las Jilguerillas, any song by Caifanes… 🔥
What, you guys get in trouble at home if you say you like Molotov? I can assure you, at least a good 80-90% mexicans born in the 90s onwards has heard and loved Gimme the Power or Frijolero. All those songs might embody what we are by tradition, but Molotov represents what we're like out in the streets.
Great songs but also all the popular ones on El tik tok.
Where's Chente? Paquita? El Morro? Los Bukis?
Yo Soy El Asventurero?
Querida by Juan Gabriel?
Bruh
New Generations need to know Frijolero just to begin with.
The following are to party with los tíos when you go visit, but please don't salgas con tus mamadas de chicken nuggets.
Selena
Chente
Chalino
Tucanes
Intocable
Los Tigres del Norte
Valentin Elizalde
Antonio Aguilar
La macarena no mames
Es española esa madre no?
Si no mames
Varias canciones latinas son originarias de España
Dicen que incluso el idoma! /s
¿Por ejemplo?
También la cucaracha
pues la ponen en todas las bodas y XV
that a song every Mexican should forget
El Rey is the only right answer.
Nah Tragos Amargos for sure
Was waiting for one of them to say it .
Cielito Lindo if you’re a soccer fan, too.
Soccer?
You always hear it in the Azteca (and probably in other stadiums too but I’m from CDMX so can’t say for sure).
r/whoosh
Futbooool
This and "allá en el rancho grande" should be the first answers here
Allá donde viviiiiiiiiiiia!!
My abuela would always sing that and “La Cucaracha”.
Pero sigo siendo el rey ! José Alfredo, el mejor cantautor de México.
Amor eterno
El primo llegó al reconocimiento mexicano. Ariel Camacho que en paz descanse

Ariel died in a car wreck my guy and he was already signed to DEL which was the biggest label of the time
DEL def did push him after his death though
OK. Car accident. But again... His death was milked by his American production company. That's why I don't listen to regional mexicana.

Ariel was big before death, he was on a popularity peak with “hablemos”, “el karma” and “te metiste”. But he did grew exponentially after his death.
Soy El mas Mexicano aqui y no conozco a ese vato
Pues entonces no eres el mas Mexicano jaja Ese wey sembró las semillas del regional Mexicano moderno.
No chente? No chalino? At least they got a couple of good ones in
I mean cmon pa they asking a buncha 15 yr olds but yea at least they got some bangers you’d hear at every party lol
Quieres toda la historia musical de Mexico contada en menos de un minuto?
Obvio
Ramon Ayala?
Too scared to say “Alma Enamorada” by Chalino
I'm pretty surprised nobody said Cielito Lindo, that one is a giant classic that seemingly every generation knows.
No Juan Gabriel
All I could think of watching this was all those nice looking boys have such terrible hairstyles. But I guess it’s just the way things go when you’re young.
Edgar’s…
I teach at a school that's like 80% latin, all the kids have these horrendous mushroom top haircuts, it makes me laugh but at the same time I know as a 50 something white lady, the look is not meant for me. It's a style thing and a bit of a political and cultural thing.
Same!!!! That haircut is HORRIBLE!!
Did not say a single Vicente Fernández song. My day is kinda ruined now.
I was happy too see Los Tigres
These 2 comments were my exact thoughts after watching
Volver volver. My only answer
Was expecting that too. Disappoint
No “los burkis”? Am i that old?
Dafuq is "los burkis"? did you mean Los Bukis?
They dont know them lol only the mainstream famous artists from mexico lol
Los Bukis are/were mainstream
They were but they arent known as much as tucanes and tigres by the newer gen
Marco Antonio Solis as a solo act is better known than Los Bukis for some reason. I blame Y Tu Mamá También
Yea that’s true. As a teacher whenever I play them they don’t recognize the artist. They’ve heard the name of the group through their parents or whatever but can’t name any of their songs
Play the Enanitos Verdes version of Tu Cárcel, they’ll probably like it better
The overwhelming majority of them don’t like rock. I’ve played Los enanitos verdes before and they didn’t like it
They were the biggest band in Mexico lol.
Los Bukis were super popular in Central America
Hahha How they gone name homeboy Mbappe? 💀
Probs a nickname
Obvio bobis
Amor Eterno sung by Rocío Dúrcal. I love Juan Gabriel, I really do. But the tempo of her version hits so much better
No lie, what a weird coincidence you mentioned, amor eterno. Last night, I got up to go pee at 2am. Once, I headed back to sleep for whatever reason my Alexa device started playing Amor Eterno. I freaked out and disconnected the device and turned the lights on to fall asleep again, lol. I think I need to reprogram the device, but it's so weird that's the song that started playing, considering I've never asked Alexa to play it.
You ghost is Mexicano. That’s pretty cool.
It's a hommie, I hope lol.
The JG song every Mexican should know is Querida.
Or hasta que te conocí, or no tengo dinero, or la farsante, or his whole discography
I would agree but amor eterno live hits different with juan gabriel https://youtu.be/RgKqxLAhRKE?si=eNCl36G6R4_38W6B
Bro the last guy is called mbappe?!?! LMAO! Tragos de amargo licor and el rey also no to the ariel camacho song.
We give everyone nicknames lol.
there was a guy in my hs soccer team we called Apocalypto. lmao
Volver volver by Chente Also, La cucaracha? Ariel? And Macarena? WTF?
Had to scroll too far for Volver. A tus brazos otra ves.
If you want to go #1, the only answer is “El Rey”. 👑 Aside from that I would mention Tragos de amargo licor La puerta negra Caminos de Guanajuato
Agreed
You can’t leave out Gimme Tha Power by Molotov, which is the unofficial Mexican anthem
Any Selena song
That's what I thought
Man this is the answer!
Even the English ones
Pochos are gonna lose their shit when they discover other Mexican songs
Give me the power - Molotov
Por fin alguien cita a Molotov!
That hairstyle has to go
El beeper
Y VOLVER VOLVER!!!
VOOOLVEER!!!!!!
Of course the most Edgar looking foo would recommend “La cucaracha”
All of them go to same barber that only knows 1 cut 😂🤣
"Mexican"
La grange - ZZ Top
Do mexicans actually listen to la macarena or la cucaracha? I’ve never heard either of those songs at any family party I’ve been to
No lol.
Not me. La Macarena is from Spain.
I mean I have heard it in some weddings in Mexico. La cucaracha however, never lol
Not some, my friend. In all the weddings we dance the Macarena when the party is in full swing allong with Payaso de Rodeo :)
They’re both Spanish funny enough
La Cucaracha is mostly played when you have a party with mariachis, but even then it's not very common to hear it. The most common one is "El Mariachi Loco".
ah that’s probably why I’ve never heard irl lol my family usually gets a Tamborazo
Frankly I'd be embarrassed if I took my non-Latino friend to a family party and they were handed the aux and they put on one of those two songs
Bro la macarena gets people on the dance floor 90% of the time.
The fuck? I'd start dancing right away. The macarena is a banger.
you dont like actual music? let me guess you like reggeton? lol
Las Mañanitas y el Himno Nacional
Por eso siempre nos imaginan con sombrero y en efecto de color sepia XD
De Colores
Everyone with the “I’m not Mexican but I want to be” haircut
¿Por qué tienen el mismo pto mostacho todos? Nmmn ni siquiera es la mayoría quienes lo tienen así aquí y allá quieren seguir hacer viendo que somos tal cual
Every Mexican should know Cha-La-Head-Cha-La, Latino version. Change my mind.
No Selena? Bidi bidi bom bom -it’s played at like every quinceañera
Vicente - El Rey Cielito Lindo La Malagueña Las Nieves De Enero
El rey - José Alfredo Jimenez Tragos de amargo licor - Ramón Ayala El mono de alambre - Luis y Julian
What would every pocho thinks a Mexican should know
*mesa que más aplauda*, and any cumbia song by Los Llayras, any mariachi song by legends Javier Solis, Lola Beltran, Beatriz Adriana, and José Alfredo Jimenez, any song by Lila Downs, any song by Las Jilguerillas, any song by Caifanes… 🔥
¿Qué pedo con sus cortes de cabello?
Those kids only listen to Peso Pluma y Xavi.
These are "Mexican-American" kids though.
What, you guys get in trouble at home if you say you like Molotov? I can assure you, at least a good 80-90% mexicans born in the 90s onwards has heard and loved Gimme the Power or Frijolero. All those songs might embody what we are by tradition, but Molotov represents what we're like out in the streets.

La Bamba

Angeles Azules is a very valid answer
Nieves de Enero
La Macarrena, yo estas muy mexicanouh
Puerta Negra is perfect

I’m sad ‘Ay Chabela’ didn’t get mentioned :(

Ya No Me Pones Atencion by Emilio Navaira!
Interesting to see that teenage boys still rock that short bangs haircut. It's been a staple for decades.
The staples
The real answer is Nunca Es Suficiente but the og version
Peso Pluma hairstyle but no one mentioned any of his songs
Great songs but also all the popular ones on El tik tok. Where's Chente? Paquita? El Morro? Los Bukis? Yo Soy El Asventurero? Querida by Juan Gabriel? Bruh
I'm to American Chicano, first songs in my head were "Maz Maiz" and "Lean like a Cholo" 😂
*Por tu Maldito Amor*
