Enrique Iglesias chats to I Like Music

ILM: Please describe the Enrique Iglesias process of making music? Does it tend to be lyrics or melody first?

ENRIQUE: It depends. Sometimes it's simultaneous, sometimes it's the melody, sometimes it's the title, so it varies. A lot of times it's simultaneous; it starts with that first line and just flows.

ILM: Lots of songs these days have a focus on relationships because we all have them, be they with partners, family or friends, do you have lyrics relating to relationships that you feel people can relate to (your own songs or songs you've heard that have related to you)?

ENRIQUE: There are a lot of songs about relationships when you listen to music. That's one thing we all have in common, we all have relationships, so I can relate to a lot of them, I think it's too hard to pick just one.

ILM: Please describe your ideal night out and the friends you'd have with you, and also describe your perfect night in and the people you'd have share it with you.

ENRIQUE: My perfect night in is to hang out in my room in bed and watch TV. My perfect night out… I like hanging out with my friends who I don't get to see much of because I'm touring. I like going to the movies too.

ILM: You've worked with Whitney Houston duet, Kelis, Lil' Wayne, … any dream collaborations?

ENRIQUE: I'd really like to work with someone like Bruce Springsteen.

ILM: Now that would be a hot collaboration. We'll cross our fingers that happens.

ENRIQUE: Thank you.
