He entered onto the scene in the early 1990s, being the first rural bachatero to reach a mainstream audience with his hit "Voy pa'lla", shortly after Blas Durán had appropriated the electric guitar for the genre. Santos' adoption of soft romantic lyrics was more socially accepted than the bawdy cabaret style common to bachata before him, and he shortly became the genre's leading artist, helping move bachata into the Caribbean Latino mainstream.
Antony Santos is currently the best paid bachatero in the Dominican Republic. He has already signed the contract to offer a concert in Puerto Rico at the Roberto Clemente Coliseum, a venue with a seating capacity of 10,000 people. This concert was on May 12, 2007 and he's said to have been paid an unprecedented US$90,000 for this one presentation alone.

Ahora no se donde está
Ahora por donde estará
Quisiera poderla encontrar.
A donde estará escondida
No se a donde habrá ido
Ahora no se que será
Se está acabando mi vida
Sufriendo por ella
Ay amor como lloro, solo quiero que vuelvas
Quiero tenerte conmigo, no quiero estar solo
Ay amor ven ahora por que o si no yo lloro.
Lloro por que mi vida se ahoga
Lloro por que me faltas tu ahora.
Ay amor a donde estarás
Ay amor yo te quiero ver
Ay amor a que hora será que tu volverás.
Lloro por que mi vida se ahoga
Lloro por que me faltas tu ahora.
A donde estará escondida
No se donde habrá ido
Ahora no se que será
A donde la voy encontrar.
Quisiera que alguien me diga
A donde se encuentra metida
A ella la voy a buscar
Sin ella yo no puedo estar...
Se esta acabando mi vida
Sufriendo por ella
Ay amor como lloro solo quiero que vuelvas
Quiero tenerte conmigo no quiero estar solo
Ay amor ven ahora por que o si ni yo lloro.
Lloro por que mi vida se ahoga
Lloro por que me faltas tu ahora.
Ay amor a donde estarás
Ay amor yo te quiero ver
Ay amor a que hora será que tu volverás.
The lyrics of Antony Santos's song "Lloro" are all about the pain of lost love and the desperate longing to reconnect with a former lover. The singer is clearly consumed by thoughts of his lost love and he desperately wants to know where she is and whether she will ever return to his life. The song is a powerful exploration of the intense emotions that can come with heartbreak and the ways that these emotions can seem to take over our lives.
The opening lines of the song set the scene for the rest of the lyrics, with the singer admitting that he is lost and doesn't know where his former lover is. His desperation is echoed in the repetition of the refrain "Ay amor como lloro, solo quiero que vuelvas" which translates to "Oh love, how I cry, I just want you to come back". This repetition highlights the central theme of the song - that the singer cannot move on and is consumed by his feelings for his lost love.
The final lines of the song express the singer's sense of emptiness and his need to be reunited with his lover. The way the song ends with the statement "Sin ella yo no puedo estar" which translates to "Without her, I cannot be" expresses how important this person is to the singer and how much he needs her in his life.
