[@shondiaskew-castor5153]

I was 10 years old, when this song came out. Our dance instructor created a routine for one of our competition teams. Every time it plays on the radio, the memories of this dance number come back to me. Gloria Estefan and the Miami Sound Machine had several Billboard Top 10 hits in the 80s and 90s, and is an icon of their time. In all fairness, Gloria her husband, and son were involved in a near-fatal bus accident that collided with a tractor trailer on March 20, 1990 near the Poconos Mountains in Pennsylvania. Her son had a broken shoulder bone, husband had minor head a hand injuries, while she had a broken vertebra in her back. She underwent a four-hour surgery to repair her spinal alignment with steel rods. Her prognosis for a full recovery was doubtful, so she retired. However, with extensive physical therapy, she made a miraculous recovery, and returned to the music scene in January 1991. In March, she launched a year-long tour to highlight her comeback. Since then, she's had numerous hit albums, a Broadway show, and was awarded the President Medal of Freedom for profound contributions to music and the Latin American culture in 2017. Her life story is quite interesting. I encourage people of the younger generations to read her biography. Many artists and others believe that it is inspirational.

[@CourtneyLachiver]

She is one of my biggest inspirations of all time. I read this article when she spoke about going through physical therapy for her back and how she never gave up. She said something along the lines of, “Today, I’m going to walk five feet. Tomorrow, 10 feet, the next day 15, and so on and so forth.” She never gave up from her injuries and she was told she’d never be able to have more children after the bus crash. She proved doctors wrong by giving birth to a healthy baby girl in 1994, who has followed in her footsteps and is a singer herself now.

"Out of the Dark" was the song she wrote about the accident and her recovery. There was such a sense of pride I felt for her. I still do.

[@missparsley3202]

👍 this was one of the most iconic bands of the 80's. For us European youngsters an introduction to latin music. Always wanted to understand Spanish because of Gloria Estefan.😅🤩 Now I am 47 and still fan.

[@jadentrez]

I always respected Gloria Estefan because her mother wanted her to go to college, but she wanted to be a singer. Our of respect for her mother, Gloria went to college, graduated and got a degree. Then she handed the degree to her mother and said, "That's for you, mother!" And then she went and did what she wanted, became a pop star.

Remember seeing Miami Sound Machine in the early 80’s, as a teenager, in Ybor City. It was a free concert and maybe 200 to 300 people showed up for it. Remember they were just starting to take off, so they needed to get their music known out there. Gloria (man, she was so short, tiny but wonderful person) and Emilio took a photo with my mom and me. We had gotten to talk with them for a few short minutes before they had to sign some other autographs and then depart for another Florida city, to perform at the next day. Never forgot that time they were a struggling band and saw them many times later too. Still have the photo, in one of my memory books... I will have to find and post it one day.

It's so true. Have you ever seen that episode of Futurama where Bender asks what it would be like if he was a human? He wants to get the stereotypical "human experience", so he does things like smoking a cigar (he did that before too, but it wasn't bad for him), eating nachos, and going dancing. He feels an uncontrollable urge to move in his hips that he had never experienced before when this song (Conga) is played. I feel like that sums her up pretty well: even if you had never heard of dancing in your entire life, Gloria Estefan would somehow *_still_* make you feel the urge to get up and dance. I went a long way for that one, hopefully that made at least some sense lol

Why don't they play *THIS* on the radio

[@walterwalinski1598]

They do play this on the radio but it is on the oldies station

[@aspenrebel]

Cuz they probably wore it out.

[@xlegmartin]

I just heard it today, even in a mainstream channel in Germany (radio ffn, Lower Saxony) ... That`s why I was looking for the video on YT.... :-)

She seems so normal and approachable, at the beginning. I like it. And the song is still awesome !!

[@mvc5704]

This song was massive in the mid 80's in all of Latin America...played at every house party for sure!!

[@bergercookie]

Pure culture and celebration right here ! Gloria is a genius for creating this authentic salsa 💃🏻 Cuban rhythm 🥁 that makes everyone feel alive and exhilarating ❤️‍🔥🎶

[@tabithafaye8118]

Used to wake up to this music when I was a kid, my mom played it on full volume on her obnoxiously loud stereo system at 6 in the morning. Heard it all the way from the 2nd floor. Good times.

[@jongrant1215]

I never ever tire of hearing Gloria sing this song. That beat makes me move!

I grew up jammin' to this in the 80's... and the real reason why i'm jammin' to this now is because of my favorite Disney ride of all time, GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY! This song makes the ride soooo HYPE!

Last year they played this at my cousins' wedding and we all did a conga line. I was laughing because it reminded me of my aunt, since she used to have this song on a cassette tape when I was a little kid and we'd all dance. Now every time I hear it, I laugh and think back to those days.

[@aspenrebel]

cassette tape? They wre still around in 1985. At least you didn't say 8 Track or Reel to Reel.

[@cannibalisticrequiem]

@@aspenrebel lol I'm trying to figure out exactly what your problem is with the comment. The OP was sharing a memory from their childhood, but you have a problem with it because...? Well it *seems* like you want to get on the OP's case for making up the whole story, but you can't do that because you begrudgingly admit that the bit of the memory you find fault with, actually checks out on your imaginary list of facts. So what exactly is your issue? Or are you just trying to get a random stranger on the internet in some weird gotcha thing where you prove to yourself that... everyone younger than you don't know what they're talking about and will blatantly lie online simply to get your worthless approval because they're inherently inferior to you for not being born in the same generation as you?

Esta canción con su gran ritmo me subió el ánimo y la energía, la acabo de escuchar en una emisora en la radio y quería conocer el vídeo original, espectacular, no sé si existe una versión en español, pero seguro que es igual de buena que esta. Que gran talento el de Gloria y su esposo, ella se veía muy bonita en el video.
