I'm glad you actually understand what the song is about... I did too, but not the listeners.
Yes, I had stations playing it when it got released, and not just on research (call out), but on request, and normal street studies, the song IS A STIFF! No one understood it. Other Tigres corridos do test (La Banda Del Carro Rojo, Los Dos Plebes, and others). The big Tigres songs are the ones the listeners like to hear. In the past three or four records by Los Tigres, there has not been a BIG HIT.
The listeners dont care much for the song. They might have liked it the first few times they heard it, but then they told all my stations they just didn't get it, and in most cases, didn't request it.
Hey,
You're not the "Ric Santos" that was on Westwood One's (now Dial Global's) Kool Gold Format?
