"Bailamos"
Song

"Bailamos" is a Latin Pop song from singer Enrique Iglesias for his debut English album Enrique. It was also featured in the Wild Wild West Soundtrack.

In English, it literally means, "We Dance", or in this case: "Let's Dance".

In the United States, the song was part of a wave of crossover music from Latin American singers, led by Ricky Martin. The success of "Bailamos" was a breakthrough for Iglesias which enabled him to sign a multi-album deal with Interscope.
