the cumbia is not Argentine it's Peruvian and Colombian it was bought by the immigrants. If the cumbia is Argentinian so the salsa is American
- The article doesn't say that cumbia is from Argentina, but names the Argentine cumbia, which is the cumbia form that country. Mariano(t/c) 07:45, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Changed headings
I changed the headings to include tango and rock under 'popular' music, because they are. To argue otherwise is silly. Tango was the first form of modern popular music in Argentina. Argentine rock is the music of the 70s, 80s, and 90s. And cumbia and cuarteto are also of course forms of popular music, and cumbia villera has match rock in the 2000s.
Therefore they are all forms of argentine popular music. The dugout 13:51, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Popular?
I've changed a few of the "popular" rock groups that were listed, since it's ridiculous to put stuff like Todos Tus Muertos in there, a band that disbanded ten years ago (and they weren't even really popular), and not Los Piojos, a band that can gather tens of thousands of fans in their concerts. I've taken out Miranda! too, since that's all-out pop, not rock. (I'm a fan of Miranda! though, but I just don't think that it should go under a "rock" title). I'm not arguing that TTM, El Otro Yo or Miranda are bad bands, they just can't touch Los Piojos, La Renga, etc., on popularity.
