Billboard took upon itself the endeavor to list the best songs from telenovelas, the list includes productions from both Latin America and the USA.
A telenovela is a melodrama — love, betrayal, revenge, passion — all taken to the extreme, accompanied with music: each one comes with its main theme, the song that announces the program’s beginning or farewell. It’s impossible to think of a telenovela without thinking of the song that identifies it, and for many artists, getting a song into a telenovela was a crucial marketing component to land a hit.
The complete list is at the source, but the top 5 is:
5.- Verónica Castro, “Aprendí a llorar” / Telenovela: Los Ricos También Lloran (1979)
4.- Joan Sebastián, Maribel Guardia, “Tú y Yo” / Telenovela: Tú y Yo (1996)
🥉.- Enrique Iglesias, “Por Amarte” / Telenovela: Marisol (1996)
🥈.- RBD, “Rebelde” / Telenovela: Rebelde (2004)
🏅.- Thalía, “Marimar” / Telenovela: Marimar (1994)
Justice for lucero’s “el privilegio de amar” and pandora’s “la usurpadora”
