Review

LA PAGA  is a song written and performed by Colombian singer-songwriter Juanes.

 

The music video is animated and directed by Jason Archer and Paul Beck. It features an anthropomorphic mouse in the human world. The mouse finds that his human girlfriend is having an affair with another mouse. He goes to the bar, drinks a lot, goes to his car, and crashes on the highway with a sign. In the end, he wakes up where he sees a female doctor, and the TV behind her shows his girlfriend. There is another version of the song and video featuring Black Eyed Peas 

 

I recommend this song for Basic Spanish learners because of its vocabulary.
