“Corazón Espinado” (thorny heart) is from Supernatural (1999), the album that brought Carlos Santana, born in Jalisco, Mexico, back to the top of the charts. Maná's Fher Olvera sings of a woman who has hurt him so badly that his heart is full of thorns — she's killing him, and he still can't forget her.
Santana's guitar answers every line, and the band's Latin rock rhythm makes it impossible to sit still. It became a hit across the Americas and a favourite on Mexican radio.
The vocabulary is a lovely mix of feelings and images: the thorn, to hurt, to forget, the pain. The chorus is short and repeated, so it's easy to sing along.
