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.

ay ay
Hoy he vuelto encontrarla
miren como ahora me siento yo
la tengo a ella aqui conmigo ya
la mujer de mi vida
ha sido ella siempre de verdad
y nunca la voy a dejar de amar
jamaz yo la podre olvidar
y como quiera que sea
yo la amo y la amo
aunq mi vida se acabe
yo la amo y la amo
no me dejes morir
(coro)
por que te amo
me voy a morir tranquilo
no me importa ya la vida
si tengo mi corazon
tu cariño yo lo dava por perdido
le doy gracias a la vida
por que me trajo a mi amor
y te amo me siento felis contigo
que me traigan mas bebida
que me quiero morir yo
dame de mas amor
dame mas mi corazon
me quiero morir, matame
dame de mi amor
dame mas mi corazon
me quiero morir, matame
por que te amo

y nunca la voy a dejar de amar
jamas yo la podre olvidar
y como quiera que sea
yo la amo y la amo
aunq mi vida se acabe
yo la amo y la amo
