Midnight Red is: Joey Diggs Jr., 21, from Los Angeles, CA, who says his father, a singer who is best known as the voice behind Coca-Cola’s “Always” campaign jingle, taught him everything he knows. “I’m ready to show the world what it means to chase a dream and work hard to make that dream become reality,” he says. Thomas Augusto, 19, from Arlington, TX, was called the “little entertainer” by his family as a kid because “my parents could never shut me up,” he says. A fan of Beyonce, Radiohead, and No Doubt, Thomas has spent years dreaming about being on a huge stage doing what he loves to do. “There were always pyrotechnics in my daydreams,” he says. The baby of the group, Anthony Ladao, 18, from Seattle, WA, has been singing since the age of 12 and dancing since the age of 6. Seeing Usher perform at the MTV Video Music Awards first sparked his interest in dance and “from there it became my passion,” he says. Colton Rudloff, 22, from Buffalo, NY, was selected as Midnight Red’s fifth member after being discovered through videos he had posted on YouTube. A huge fan of American Idol, Colton credits the show for exposing him to many different genres of music. “I lean toward artists who have a passion for pure singing,” he says. “There’s no need for all the smoke and mirrors if you have a great voice.” Finally, Eric Secharia, 19, from Burbank, CA, describes himself as a “hipster” whom you’ll never catch not smiling. Eric, who has been singing since age 6, and dancing since age 12, plays guitar and ukulele, and cites Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson as his main musical influences. “They are two people who truly stood out as performers that mastered their craft and used it to change the world,” he says.
Midnight Red formed in 2009 through the efforts of veteran A&R executive, and Kings of LA label founder, Pete Farmer and super producer RedOne, who brought the group to Interscope Records. What’s up for the group in 2011? “World domination,” jokes Thomas. “No biggie.”

se fue una primavera y mi cielo oscureció
le escribo mil poemas estoy loco de amor
trato de mil maneras aliviar su dolor
Hay dime donde dime donde dime donde
te me escondes te me escondes te me escondes
aquí sueño sin dormir lo que yo quiero es ir contigo-o-o
Y persigo tu sombra y trato de encontrar una manera de estar contigo
Y entre mil gente estoy en mi mente contigo-o-o
Detrás de la tormenta yo le traigo mi sol
si llueve no hay problema su paraguas soy yo
te pinto mil estrellas solo dime el color
y en un jardín de rosas recuerdo tu dolor
Hay dime donde dime donde dime donde
te me escondes te me escondes te me escondes
Y entre mil gente estoy en mi mente contigo-o-o
aquí sueño sin dormir lo que yo quiero es ir contigo-o-o
Y persigo tu sombra y trato de encontrar una manera de estar contigo
Y entre mil gente estoy en mi mente contigo-o-o
No me cansare de esperar mi amor no tiene final
yo nunca parare de buscar nunca me cansare de pensar en ti en ti en ti en ti
No me cansare de esperar mi amor no tiene final
Yo nunca parare de buscar nunca me cansare de pensar en ti en ti en ti en ti
Y entre mil gente estoy en mi mente contigo-o-o (Contigooo)
aquí sueño sin dormir lo que yo quiero es ir contigo-o-o
Y persigo tu sombra (sombra) y trato de encontrar (encontrar) una manera de estar contigo
Y entre mil gente estoy en mi mente contigo-o-o
The lyrics of "Contigo" by Midnight Red are about a man who is deeply in love with a woman who has left him. He considers her his "luna llena," or full moon, and his "única ilusión," or only hope. He has tried to alleviate her pain in many ways and has written her many poems, but she remains hidden from him. He is constantly thinking about her and dreams of being with her. He tries to find her shadow and figure out a way to be with her again. He promises to never give up on his love for her and will always search for her. He tells her that he will be her source of light through the storm and paints her a picture of a garden of roses. The overall message of "Contigo" is a declaration of love and devotion towards someone, despite the challenges and difficulties that may arise.
One interesting fact about "Contigo" is that the lyrics of the song were written by Jencarlos Canela, a singer and actor from the United States. The song was also produced by RedOne, a Moroccan-Swedish producer who has also worked with Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez, and Nicki Minaj. "Contigo" is a part of Midnight Red's EP called "The Ones You Haven't Heard," which was released in 2014. The music video for the song features the band performing in a club while images of a woman dancing and a motorcycle ride are intercut. The song was a hit in Latin America, especially in Brazil and Argentina. Midnight Red also performed the song on their tour in Brazil in 2014.

@Nelida1D
I love this song!!! It's amazing , The boys sing very well in spanish
@davidmu2443
Some of them are from the Latino states like Texas, California, and Ohio. So they should know some Spanish or Italian.
@TheGalileaML
Cada vez que cantan en español, me enamoro más -
@evasanchezbriones5180
O.o que bien cantan el español y no es su idioma de origen. Madre mia!!!! IMPRESIONANTE
@ingeelbers1097
Contigo is AMAZING. I love them so much and i hope that they will sing more songs in spanish.
@leonardsterling2737
I actually agree with you, they have found where their should be in the latin market. There will not make it singing in English, if I was them I would become an artist only making music in Spanish.
