Do you know the song Cancion Mixteca ? It`s a really over-the-top, crying-into-your-tequila Ranchero song. Here it is, done by Los Tigres del Norte with the Chieftains
Yeah, I actually have heard of that song. I tried to get into Ranchero music once, it just didn't work out. I think you need to be brought up on Ranchero music to really enjoy it or something.

Do the younger generations listen to Ranchero music in Mexico? In LA it's usually always middle-aged men, I don't know if that's just an influence of American culture though. It's a shame how native U.S. citizens really frown upon Ranchero music. Just because you don't like it/it's foreign doesn't mean it should be mocked constantly.

And people should start posting their thoughts on Brazilian music. There's a lot of amazing stuff happening there.
