Enrique Iglesias: "Do You know? (The Ping-Pong Song)

I've heard a couple of his songs over the years.

"Bailamos" is probably my favorite from back in the 90's.

But his most recent single is beyond amazing.
I'm not heavily into him or his music at any level, but when I heard him sing this song live both on Dancing with the Stars and Regis & Kelly, I can't even describe it.

It's so beautiful. His voice is amazing in it.

Does anyone else here like this song?

One of the worst song titles in recent memory.

The title is "Do You Know?" "Ping-Pong" is so you remember it and maybe so you don't Google and come up with the Diana Ross song.
It's nice how they handled the ping-pong sound in the video and the video in general. The Video

By that logic, I should see Stronger (Y'know, That One By Kanye West?) on the Billboard charts.

I hope so!
With so much info out there, this trend should catch on, it will make Googleing so much easier.
But the song really is "Do You Know". The "ping pong" part is in parentheses.

Kanye's
track is simply "Stronger"

No, it's shit and you must be having a laugh about his voice. He can't sing.

Honestly, someone is a complete moron if they need parentheses in the title (usually dropped when announcers name the song) to figure out who's singing. It clearly isn't Diana Ross.

any song with ping-pong in its title or lyrics gets an immediate thumbs down from me.

No!

His voice is very sweet and actually soothing in this particular song. That's why I'm so crazy about it. And the beat is VERY catchy.

We know it's not Diana but but the Google and YouTube search engines don't.

Anyway, I'm not saying I love the "ping-pong" obviously they do. They must have thought it was such a brilliant thing to use in a song that they had to make everyone aware...so they included it in the video and attached it to the title. I do like the way they handled the video though. Song is o.k.

& I didn't want to point this out, because now that's all you'll see, but he did borrow a bit from JT in the mannerisms dept.
