Mecano - Hijo de la luna

Mecano - Hijo de la luna
CANAL MECANO

The title of the song in English is Son of the Moon and tells the tragic story of an albino child born to dark skinned parents. This the second (or third) Spanish language song I have posted and both are tragic. Is this because the Latin music industry is riddled with tragedy? Or maybe Spanish songs only make it in the English world if they are tragic. Something funny going on there. Spain and Latin America celebrate the Day of the Dead, but northerners do not.

The name of the band is apparently taken from the English version of Erector construction toys.
