YMMV / Álex Ubago

• Adaptation Displacement: His Spanish version of Craig David's "Walking Away" became so known that many Spaniards don't even know there was an original version in English.
• Germans Love David Hasselhoff: Ubago is, or used to be, strong in Latin America, where he got many platinum and gold discs.
• Memetic Mutation: Ubago's typically sad songs are popularly considered to be dangerous to the listener's mental health. An article from a joke news site claimed that Spotify blocks Ubago's albums every Blue Monday in order to prevent suicide rates from skyrocketing.
• Tear Jerker: Regardless of the memery, it's true that this man has some really tearjerking songs, especially if one can relate to the topic.
