I've heard alot of people talking about how good this song is, and it's a decent song, I have one problem with it. It's a rip job of the Supremes' "You Keep Me Hanging On"! Am I the only one who noticed this?

As an English speaking human, I welcome any Spanish speaking band to have similar fun with my language.
Nice big wide-open bass sound from Mr. Clayton!!!

It is a powerful slightly out-of-control sound that I think works well in the song. I actually LIKE these types of sounds. At least it isn't just another Warwick swimming in a sea of low mids.
