I don’t know if you know that annoying spaniard...
he said he’d stop singing if 2 or 3 million people sign for it. (He said it in an interview where the subject was the 3 million signs needed in Venezuela to make a referendum about the current president Chavez)
well as we say in spanish “El pez por la boca muere”, wich means something like “The fish dies ’cos of its mouth”

So here’s the petition, around 20000 people signed it in less than one day, but it misteriously got hacked and the count went back to 1000 or something, that’s what i read.
Sign!!

Great!
I tried to sign but I couldn’t, dunno why, but I’ll try again later!
I suffer that “annoying Spaniard” anytime anyone switches on a radio, so I think it’s fair that I sign :)
Please help us!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!! :s

LOL!!!

Well I like some of his songs - his lyrics are sometimes really good, and have seen him live once and I gotta say I was impressed.

If I had to sign a petition to make somebody shut up it won’t be him - the list of “i can’t stand” has other names in it :D

But good luck ;)

what looks weird is their claim of being hacked as this site is run by people who have nothing to do with AS neither with the petition starters...

Anyway, “petitorio”?????? What a weird word, we call it “petición” here.. :S

ah well...
it is in the Real Academia Española :)

For us “petición” sounds more like single-person petition.

Well, I wouldn’t sign that, I like Alejandro Sanz a lot, even when some of his songs are a little boring. I’m dying because his concert in Costa Rica is today... AND I DIDN’T GET TICKETS! :(((

Why don’t you sign to shut up 50 Cent, that mouth might be shut forever :-p
