FIRST TIME HEARING Jon Secada - Just Another Day REACTION

[@robbarber3546]

32 yrs ago and it still hits.

[@wolfhawk1999]

If that song doesn't hit for you, you're dead on the inside. Absolute banger

[@EricEchvz84]

100% fact

[@raisa_cherry35]

Exactly ❤❤

[@RGRGRGRGRGRGRG]

It's an absolute banger, for sure. '90s pop at its best. But it's the note at 6:06 that's sealed the deal for 30 years.

I don’t think he wanted to

Not enough good songs. A lot of the time its about how much the record company puts into promotion. Prince and Jackson worked on their mysterious personas.

Love that song! "I'm Free" is another great one.

[@johncook2765]

Jon got his start as a back up singer for Gloria Estefan. On her Coming Out Of The Dark tour she had him sing this song at her show. It just shows how generous she was to people in her crew.

Jon should have been a much bigger star he has the talent.

[@chanbennett7603]

He was a professor for MDC when he met Emilio (Gloria's husband). He wrote many songs for Gloria and MSM. Emilio mentored Juan (Jon) when he decided to sing the backup vocal track to Coming Out of The Dark after Gloria's tour bus accident.

[@Blink.M2Dev]

I remember when this came out, everyone was hooked immediately, my sisters were in love with him. His voice really is amazing.

[@michellecarter3306]

Absolutely 💯

[@kevincaulder96]

Jon Secada was one of the best Latin voices to emerge in the 1990's. From his backup work with Gloria Estefan and the Miami Sound Machine to his later solo hits, he was very popular with the ladies. Marc Snthony would break through later in the decade with two brilliant singles, I NEED TO KNOW, and YOU SANG TO ME. Ricky Martin would have his biggest success with SHE BANGS and LIVIN' LA VIDA LOCA. Of course, the Latin explosion wouldn't be complete without mentioning Selena and the major return of Carlos Santana. There was also Juan Gabriel, Lucero, Alejandra Guzman, Shakira, Enrique Iglesias, and many others. Speaking of Santana, the next song should be MARIA, MARIA. Everyone knows about SMOOTH. But I think the rhythm and pace of Maria will really hook you. Enjoy

So here in Florida, high school seniors would go on their class trip called "Grad Nite" to Disney World's Magic Kingdom. Disney would close the park to only HS seniors until the early morning hours. We were in a STUPID long line for Space Mountain, so we left and wandered to the live music area. JON SECADA WAS PERFORMING THIS SONG!!! So good! PM Dawn also performed. Never so grateful for long Space Mountain lines 😂

I saw myself in Amber’s reaction and that smile as I remember that joy when you know you’re hearing one of your favorite songs for the first time. Damn I wish I could sing half as well as Mr. Secada! I believe Emilio Estefan produced this song and Gloria graced the song with her back up vocals! Latino Pride!

[@owenbb505]

What struck me when I heard this song was how the piano in the verse parts just stood out. The synth beat in the background is light, yet has a driving feel to it and the vocals, including Jon's, have an airy vibe to them. It gives that song a lot of empty space, like you're truly in a room by yourself. It builds very subtly until Jon opens that last chorus section in a grand way. Takes me back to summer of '92. Great choice again, guys!

[@andyrunton]

Jon was such a staple of VH1 and 90’s late night love song stations. My favorite by him is “If you go.” It’s so powerful and has the stereotypical desert video that was so pervasive at the time! 😂 Like everyone says, his catalog is huge and his songs in Spanish are so amazing.

[@brinsonopinion]

omg yeah, "If You Go"...just magical.

[@EleanorofAquitaine42]

My mother is Mexican, so every time I hear this song, it plays in my head in Spanish alongside the English. I got curious and checked him out on Spotify. Just Another Day has 82.5 million plays in English. It has close to 100 million in Spanish. Love it!

I was on the cusp of finally being out of the teen years, branching out on my own, falling in and out of love, driving in my beat-up old Chevette on a warm summer night. Ahh, that feeling when you get your first taste of freedom, before you grow bored with adulthood and wonder where your youth went. That's what this song sounds like to me. It reminds me of a club remix of a smooth ballad over soft hip hop beats. Thanks for taking me back to that snapshot of my life. ❣

[@cjk5115]

In college in the early 90s, I worked in a store that had an easy listening radio station that played the same stuff over and over - Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Gloria Estefan, Celine Dion, etc. I wanted to smash my head off a wall whenever I'd hear any of them, especially their hits of that time. But then this song came along and got a ton of airplay, but I never got tired of it for the exact reasons you cited: interesting structure and outstanding vocals by Jon himself on what is another heartbreaker of a song. And in fairness, Gloria Estefan did have a hand in bringing him to us and pops up in the video. He had a couple other mainstream hits that I recall (I believe one was "I'm Free" and again, his vocals are just dynamite).

[@TeXXicJA]

I LOVED the English and Spanish versions of this song. Jon Secada was HOT back in the day. The minute I heard this song, I KNEW who was behind him. I wonder if Amber and Jay picked up her backing vocals😊😊 Too Late Too Soon, Angel, Do You Believe in Us, so many songs

Jon is an all-time favourite of mine. Fantastic singer. He sang backup for Gloria Estefan & Miami Sound Machine earlier in his career, and she & her husband helped launch his solo career. Please do more!

Loved Gloria's inclusion in the video. Another fave of mine is 'If you go'.

[@caroldudgeon50s]

Yeah 😊this one's on a couple of my playlists. He has a great voice.. and as you say, the mix with backing vocals and the beat... really makes you want to move. Always enjoyable to listen to... and seeing your face when you first hear that lift in harmonies, Amber, made me smile.

A couple of my favorite Jon Secada songs from back in the day that I think you'll dig: "Do You Believe in Us" and "Angel" (Spanish version)

[@jamiedianne6778]

I LOVE this song so much! John Secada has such an amazing voice. I had the cassette of this one back in the day. “Angel” is another of his songs that’s absolutely gorgeous! ❤
