 New York, NY (TOP40 Charts/ Freydell Torres Diversity) -- Was it nostalgia or was it spite? Was it relief? Or was it simple courtesy? Or perhaps the novelty of the service. No one knows for sure what led four Latin American presidents to serenade the outgoing Alvaro Uribe of Colombia. Four traditional Mexican mariachi were sent from www.serenata4u.com to the man who led Colombia for eight years with a steady hand and without fear of controversy. The presidents of Venezuela, Bolivia, Ecuador and Brazil found in the wide repertoire of www.serenata4u.com the one melody that perfectly defines their feelings for Uribe. www.serenata4u.com allows friends and lovers to send electronic serenades in the form of music videos. Each song is personalized with a message and two photos uploaded by the person sending them. So, Hugo Chavez, with whom Uribe exchanged harsh words on several occasions, sent "El Rey" (The King), a selection that some may read as confrontational.

Evo Morales, in a message a bit nostalgic, sent the song "Volver, volver, volver" (Return, return, return).

Ecuador's Rafael Correa, with whom Uribe had border disputes, send "Serenata Huasteca", accompanied by a photo of him playing guitar.

Luis Inacio da Silva, Lula sent "Las Mananitas" (Mornings), accompanied by warm, but somewhat reflective words.

Whatever the reasons behind the serenades to Uribe, it is clear that the Colombian president leaves and indelible mark on the continent's history. www.serenata4u.com is a project of Freydell Torres Diversity.
