[edit] [sans]/[sanθ]

Early on in his career, Sanz pronounced the Castilian "th" sound. Later on in his career, the th disappeared and was replaced by an s sound, presumably to sound more Latin American.

Well, he is Andalusian (as the category he’s filed under suggests), right? It may not necessarily have to do with grasping a larger market.

I think he first tried to pronounce the "th" sound because is the correct way to talk in Spain (but ironically only a small percentage of spanish speakers use it) but then he didn't care at all. I don't think the latin market in America minds about that because they love spanish artists like Joan Manuel Serrat (in fact, catalan) and Joaquín Sabina and they use the "th" sound.

Noto una marcada influencia de los padres. A lo largo de su carrera, han sido Ellos los que han seguido mas de cerca su trayectoria. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.10.2.124 (talk) 20:35, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
