Smooth - Santana (feat. Rob Thomas) cover by ERA

This is a single released on June 29, 1999 by the legendary American Latin rock band Santana. Rob Thomas, the lead vocalist and leader of the alternative rock band Matchbox Twenty, participated as a featured artist. Rob Thomas sang and Santana played.

Along with Maria Maria, this song symbolizes the golden age of Latin music between 1999 and 2000, and it is a song that symbolizes Santana's peak. At the same time, it is a monumental song that represents both the 1990s and the end of the 20th century, and the 2000s and the beginning of the 21st century.

It achieved the record of 12 consecutive weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 from the fourth week of October 1999 to the second week of January 2000, pushing out Mariah Carey and JAY-Z's "Heartbreaker." At this point, the American popular music industry was more complex than ever, but Santana had the biggest hit in the history of popular music with this song, reaching #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 All-Time Chart from 1958 to 2018.

It reached #19 on the Billboard Hot 100 Year-End Chart in 1999 and #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 Year-End Chart in 2000. It reached #41 on the Billboard Hot 100 Year-End Chart of the 1990s and #33 on the Billboard Hot 100 Year-End Chart of the 2000s.

Eleven years after this song was released, in 2010, Santana and Rob Thomas reunited to cover Cream's legendary Sunshine of Your Love.

Lyrics : -

Man, it's a hot one
Like seven inches from the midday sun
Well, I hear you whisper and the words melt everyone
But you stay so cool
My muñequita, my Spanish Harlem Mona Lisa
You're my reason for reason
The step in my groove

And if you said this life ain't good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
Because you're so smooth

And it's just like the ocean under the moon
Oh, it's the same as the emotion that I get from you
You got the kind of lovin' that can be so smooth, yeah
Give me your heart, make it real, or else forget about it

But I'll tell you one thing
If you would leave it'd be a crying shame
In every breath and every word
I hear your name calling me out

Out from the barrio
You hear my rhythm on your radio
You feel the turning of the world, so soft and slow
It's turning you round and round

And if you said this life ain't good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
Because you're so smooth

Well, and it's just like the ocean under the moon
Well, it's the same as the emotion that I get from you
You got the kind of lovin' that can be so smooth, yeah
Give me your heart, make it real, or else forget about it

Well, and it's just like the ocean under the moon
Oh, it's the same as the emotion that I get from you
You got the kind of lovin' that can be so smooth, yeah
Give me your heart, make it real, or else forget about it

Or else forget about it
Or else forget about it
Oh, let's don't forget about it
Give me your heart, make it real
Let's don't forget about it (hey)
