thatsmydemi Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 (edited) The way this could've SMASHED so hard in English speaking countries but Fonsi's team never sent the song to radio. I'll never understand why they did such a thing tbh. The song was still a smash. Edited November 17, 2022 by thatsmydemi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbeHicks Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 This song is cute and okay, but I wish he released something stronger to follow Despacito. This killed his momentum, and it was justified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It received airplay but it was never sent. As for the UK, it was sent to radio A YEAR LATER with a full English remix.
