Puerto Rico has been known as the Enchanted Island for some time. Although Belize's Ambergris Caye has also been called that (even in song: Madonna sings about San Pedro). But usually Puerta Ricans think of and sing of the Enchanted Island. The songs on this pick are either about Puerto Rico or are by Puerto Rican musicians and some are both. Even if an artist had a bigger hit, I used any songs I could find by them about the island. Some well known artists here and some you had no idea they were from La Isla Del Encanto. It's not hard to hear the Puerta Rican influence on most of these songs. But to me, Davila 666 sounds more like Scottish band The Jesus and Mary Chain than J-Lo. But there you go, all stereotypes are thrown out the window. Paul Jabara (Last Dance and It's Raining Men fame) was one of the artists not from Puerto Rico on this pick, but his song does fit.
