Happy Cinco de Mayo! Cinco de Mayo is not just an excuse to sell Dos Equis Beer and Tostitos. It's a celebration of the victory by Mexican forces over the French at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. It's also our excuse to request your favorite song in Spanish (Mexican roots preferred). We'll spin a set after 9 a.m.

Here's what we played:

Freddy Fender "Before the Next Teardrop Falls"

Linda Ronstadt "La Charreada"

Santana "Oye Come Va"

Los Lobos "Cumbia Raza"

Richie Valens "La Bamba"
