Reccomend some Spanish Rock

Hey all, for a "karaoke" project in Spanish class, I need to find and sing a song entirely in spanish, accompanied by bass. This shouldn't be a problem, except I don't know any good songs to sing! Any help?

You should look into some Maná! Here are some of my favorites:

There is a great song on Santana's Supernatural CD called Corazon Espinado that is in Spanish.

I recall PUYA having some interesting stuff. They may be Puerto Rican, though.

The Clash's Spanish Bombs has a decent amount of indecently pronounced Spanish in it.

Soda Estereo. Their song "En La Ciudad De La Furia" unplugged version is great. The bass lays down the groove with the guitar taking center stage. If you are going to sing though, this might be the song for you since it's got a nice laid back tempo. There is a karaoke version of this song on disc (and possibly download).

How about some Soda Stereo? Great tunes; great bass lines.
Try to take a listen to these tunes:
Sobredosis De TV
Lo Que Sangra (La Cupula)
De Música Ligera
Entre canibales

One example of music with words is here:

Tabs and more can be found here:

El ultimo Concierto(live) is a great introduction to the amazing body of work this band has. Gustavo Cerati, lead singer and guitarist is a truly amazing song writer even if you don't speak spanish.

+1 my favorite spanish singing rock band... I was lucky enough to catch lead singer gustavo cerati's solo act live in 2003 in a small amphitheater where he played about 4 or 5 soda stereo tracks. If your looking for a good grunge alternative record, look into 1992's dynamo.
