I Remember back in those wonderful years the 70s life was so quiet... in "my house" the music that was played, was almost or all that music in english, but the neighboors they listen also music in spanish in fact most spanish than english... and in those years hits in english were sang in spanish for mexican artists that made the covers and were hits too, somebody arranged the song lyrics as faithfull as they can and then singers recorded the songs...

This public was such a big market that original singers and groups like Abba started to record in spanish (some songs like the winner takes it all is in spanish but not by them... and Mamma mia that is great too...)

"Feelings" this classic one was recorded in spanish and with no doubts is excellent, music sounds really good and some diferent from the original recording but i guess something is missing like the powerful interpretation of Morris in the original song was lost in spanish, this sounds sweet instead of tragical like the original... it is really diferent good but not with the impact that Feelings has for me in that time.., b side has Cristina that i guess is also in english but i don´t know it he sings totally in spanish but the name is pronunciated in english and sounds like Cesar Costa or Enrique Guzman two of the biggest cover singers in mexico and i say biggest not for best... biggest cause they made a lot of covers and most of their fame is based on those covers... :P
