He joined the army at the age of 16. When he left the army, he met a young man named Abila, who was the only one throughout the region played the guitar. Abila taught Vargas to play the guitar that his mother had bought him.
Like many musicians in his area, Vargas played merengue, the calabash, drum and accordion. These are the instruments used in the bachata, but Vargas introduced other elements, like playing the bongo with chopsticks instead of hands, and playing merengue rhythms. Vargas started recording bachata in 1982, but was not successful until the end of the decade, when he introduced his new style "guitar merengue."
A year later he recorded his first single, a 45 RPM that was what was used at that time. He sold his singles himself, going from record store to store.
Luis Vargas consolidated his career as a professional artist in the world of bachata, having to his credit more than 20 productions with other labels and, in mid-2001, launched the album " In Person ", the first with his new record label.
Luis Vargas's close friend, Anthony Santos has been very helpful in his career. However, after Vargas's career developed, so did the rivalry between them, to the point that Vargas challenged Santos to a music duel.
Vargas has been characterized by a disorganized personal life: the father of 7 children with different women who came to know in one of his concerts and never seen again.
In 2009 he said he would leave the Dominican Republic with his family to live in Miami, due to the crime in the DR. He also declared his sympathy with the PRD.
Me Rompiste el Corazón
Luis Vargas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
y me abandonaste
te dejaste llevar de los amigos
por eso me dejaste
no importo que llevaras en tu vientre
esa criatura mia
solo querias vivir de aventuras
sin mi compañia
me rompiste el corazon
al tomar la decision
de dejarme solo sin tu amor
las lagrimas de mis ojos
no paraban de caer
al saber que estas con otro
te deseo buena suerte
a dios que te valla bien
y que seas muy feliz con tu querer
y le pido al dios del cielo
que le de la bendicion
a ese fruto que quedo de nuestro amor
no importo que llevaras en tu vientre
esa criatura mia
solo querias vivir de aventuras
sin mi compañia
me rompiste el corazon
al tomar la decision
de dejarme solo sin tu amor
las lagrimas de mis ojos
no paraban de caer
al saber que estas con otro
te deseo buena suerte
a dios que te valla bien
y que seas muy feliz con tu querer
y le pido al dios del cielo
que le de la bendicion
a ese fruto que quedo de nuestro amor
te deseo buena suerte
a dios que te valla bien
y que seas muy feliz con tu querer
y le pido al dios del cielo
que le de la bendicion
a ese fruto que quedo de nuestro amor
