Hello everyone,

I am looking for a song to use in a study, but am having problems
finding anything suitable. Unfortunately, it has to be in Spanish,
but I don't know very much Spanish language music, so I don't even
know where to start. Since many of you are more versed in Spanish
music than I am, I was hoping that one of you might have a suggestion
(or mulitiple suggetions?) for me. The song that I am looking for

1 is preferably (but not necessarily) relatively well-known in the
Latino world, but not to intermediate Spanish students in America,
(perhaps a ballad),
2 is comprehensible to intermediate students (they will receive a
vocab list before hearing it),
3 would have something like 10-15 words unknown to intermediate
students,
4 would transfer well to prose (i.e. one group would get a prose
version of the text, rather than lyric),
5 is not longer than about 3.5 minutes.

If you have any ideas, please let me know! I'm getting desperate!
