Original: "Despacito" (Luis Fonsi feat. Daddy Yankee) [2017] (1)

Nobody can get past this year's summer hit "Despacito" by Luis Fonsi feat. Daddy Yankee, and even more so I, because there are so many cover versions on YouTube, it doesn't make sense to count them. However, before I present you cover versions with lyrics other than Spanish, I would like to show you my favorite instrumental covers of "Despacito." There are really some great ones out there.

But, here once again, the original version (for comparison)
