Enrique Iglesias Ringtones
Enrique Miguel Iglesias Preysler was born
in Madrid, Spain on 8 May 1975. Today, he is already a
famous and certainly beloved Grammy Award and Latin
Grammy Award-winning, Miami-based singer and
multi-million-album seller. Iglesias is the son of the
well-known Spanish singer Julio Iglesias and thus, has
been linked with the "Filipino-mestizo, filipina
socialite and majhong" magazine. The total sales of all
his albums currently go over forty million, making him
one of the best-selling Spanish music artists all over
the world. Nowadays, Iglesias has yet to overtake the
great popularity of the compositions of his father, but
has outsold Julio in single-album sales, and in this way
he considered to be "best selling Spanish artist in the
world" as concluded his music company. Undoubtedly,
Enrique Iglesias is among the best-selling
Spanish-language artists of the last decade. He has
usually said that if he has children and they wish to
follow in his footsteps, he would naturally expect them
also to be better than he is. At the very beginning of
his professional development, Iglesias has collaborated
with the songwriter Guy Chambers to write "Un nuovo
giorno" which became the lead single from the first pop
album of Andrea Bocelli. This song was later translated
into English as "First day of my life" and recorded again
by former Spice Girl Melanie Chisholm. Since then, the
song occurred to become a huge hit throughout Europe, and
has landed at the number one spots in numerous countries.
Four other hits, co-written by Iglesias, appear on the
current album of the English pop band "The Hollies". In
2000 Iglesias participated in the creation of the
interesting Off-Broadway musical, called "Four guys named
Jose and una mujer named Maria". The story in this
musical is about four American Latins who have a common
interest in music and decide to put on own new show.
Their performance contained many allusions to well-known
classic and contemporary Latin and pop songs by Carmen
Miranda, Selena, Richie Valens, Santana, Ricky Martin and
Iglesias himself. Enrique will present his new album
"Insomniac" on 15 June 2007. The first single from it
will be "Do you know the ping pong song".
