Did you know Diego Torres is also one of my favourite artists, Melo92? I've always liked his lyrics, and his song "Color Esperanza" was a kind of anthem for me when this milenium started...
I wanted to ask you: who said Diego was "the most attractive Argentinean singer" in 1994? Not that I disagree, I'm just curious! :-P! |
