It kind of reminds me of "Bailando" which I liked alot.
To be honest though I don't really listen to that much Spanish music.
I believe I read there's an english version in the works as well.

I like this! I was expecting another EDM track, but I like that this is a Latin/Pop one. Enrique really shines on these types of songs.

IMO this English version is better than the English version of "Bailando". "Bailando" sounded really weird in English, and Sean Paul kinda ruined it for me.
That being said, the Spanish version >>>> the English version.
I think the English language itself doesn't really fit in with the instrumentals and mood of this song, but it might just be me who likes the way the Spanish sounds in the original version of the song.
If this is what it takes to get these kind of songs played on top 40 radio, then I'm all for it. But personally, I would like to see songs like "El Perdón" cross over in its original form, even though I don't understand Spanish at all.

Nicky Jam is looking a lot better lately.
This sounds way too much like "Bailando" and I can't get that out of my head enough to enjoy this on its own.

This sounds nothing like Bailando. I love the production, but Enrique's voice bothers me.

I'm glad they at least kept the actual song intact and only changed the lyrics rather than adding or removing artists and/or verses. |

No me gusta tampoco.
The Spanish version is way better than this one. Bailando was awesome in English, but this one is meh.

I can't tell whether the English version is really awkward or whether I'm just so used to the Spanish version that the English feels awkward.

This really reminds me of Bailando... so I feel like it's really redundant, but this song isn't bad.

Under Cool New Music via AllAccess.
As a side note, I'm wondering if AllAccess is going to change the credits of the track since it was "Forgiveness (El Perdón)" before and it's "El Perdón (Forgiveness)" now.

Would rather have had a Spanglish version of Ay Vamos or Ginza cross from the Latin megahits category, but we'll take we can get.

This would be better without Enrique, but I'm glad that reggaeton is back on pop radio.

The spanish version sounds gay gay gay, i don't know if it's intentional but really sound like a love song between the two singers. Of course if the song was not created to be a duet the transformation can make that effect (Sam Smith and John Legend's Lay me down) |
