Latin Music For Your Day Off
Monday May 1, 2006
May 1st is a special day in many parts of the world. In England, Mayday is cause for dancing around a maypole; in Hawaii, May 1st is called 'Lei Day' and celebrations focus around activities reenforcing Hawaiin cultural heritage and diversity.
May 1st is also International Worker's Day, historically a time of protest and demonstration. Here in the United States, Immigration Reform legislation is expected to prompt large scale walkouts by our immigrant community and those supporting the reform bill.
What all of these occasions have in common is that this day seems to inspire playing hooky from work. Whether you're actively protesting, find your workplace closed today or have just decided to stay home and be in harmony with long standing traditions, you're going to want some music to help mark the occasion.
When you finish with the list of Latin songs, prolong the spirit by checking out the large repetoire of folksongs that accent the meaning of May Day.
