Born in Puerto Rico, Fonsi and his family later moved to Orlando, Florida, during Fonsi’s early childhood. Around the time he was ten years old, Fonsi began to dream about becoming a member of Menudo, a Latin American boy band. While not being able to pursue that dream, he did, however, join many local boy bands, including one, Big Guys, where he met and befriended future *NSYNC member Joey Fatone.<\/p>\n

In 1995, Fonsi enrolled at Florida State University to study music. He also joined the school’s choir and sang with the Birmingham Symphony Orchestra.<\/p>\n

In April 2005, Fonsi had a brief return to the singing stage, when former Menudo member Ray Reyes invited him and another Puerto Rican, Adamari L\u00f3pez, to a concert which was held at San Juan’s Roberto Clemente coliseum. The press widely covered what El Vocero titled as Fonsi’s moment as a Menudo, when he took the stage and joined the members of El Reencuentro to sing some of their old hits.<\/p>\n

His stage name Fonsi is actually a nickname that is derived from his middle name Alfonso (alFONSo). The “i” was added to complete the name. (From Wikipedia)<\/p>\n

Here’s the first Luis Fonsi’s hit, Imag\u00edname Sin Ti<\/em> (Imagine me Without You).<\/p>\n

Imag\u00edname Sin Ti<\/strong>
\nLuis Fonsi<\/p>\n

Mientras brillen las estrellas<\/em> (While starts still shine)
\nY los r\u00edos corran hacia el mar<\/em> (And rivers run towards the sea)
\nHasta el d\u00eda que tu vuelvas<\/em> (Until the day you come back)
\nS\u00e9 que no te dejar\u00e9 de amar<\/em> (I know I won’t stop loving you)<\/p>\n

Si escucharas mi lamento<\/em> (If you heard me wailing)
\nSi me vieras volver\u00edas<\/em> (If you saw me, you’d come back)
\nYa he pagado un alto precio<\/em> (I’ve paid a high price)
\nPor el mal que yo te hac\u00eda<\/em> (For all the wrong I did to you)<\/p>\n

Soy culpable, ya lo s\u00e9<\/em> (I’m to blame, I already know)
\nY estoy arrepentido, te pido<\/em> (I regret that, I ask you)
\nImag\u00edname sin ti y regresar\u00e1s a m\u00ed<\/em>\u00a0(Imagine me without you and you’ll come back to me)
\nSabes que sin tu amor nada soy<\/em> (You know that without your love I’m nothing)
\nQue no podr\u00e9 sobrevivir<\/em> (I won’t be able to survive)
\nImag\u00edname sin ti cuando mires mi retrato<\/em> (Imagine me without when you see my picture)
\nSi algo en ti queda de m\u00ed<\/em>\u00a0(If I have something that you remember me by)
\nRegresa por favor, imag\u00edname sin ti<\/em> (Come back please, imagine me without you)<\/p>\n

Se ha borrado mi sonrisa<\/em> (My smile has been wiped off)
\nY la lluvia no ha cesado,<\/em> (And it hasn’t stopped raining)
\nSi supieras como duele<\/em> (If you knew how much it hurts)
\nEl no tenerte aqu\u00ed a mi lado<\/em> (Not having you by my side)<\/p>\n

Soy culpable, ya lo s\u00e9<\/em> (I’m to blame, I already know)
\nY estoy arrepentido, te pido<\/em> (I regret that, I ask you)
\nImag\u00edname sin ti y regresar\u00e1s a m\u00ed<\/em>\u00a0(Imagine me without you and you’ll come back to me)
\nSabes que sin tu amor nada soy<\/em> (You know that without your love I’m nothing)
\nQue no podr\u00e9 sobrevivir<\/em> (I won’t be able to survive)
\nImag\u00edname sin ti cuando mires mi retrato<\/em> (Imagine me without when you see my picture)
\nSi algo en ti queda de m\u00ed<\/em>\u00a0(If I have something that you remember me by)
\nRegresa por favor, imag\u00edname sin ti<\/em> (Come back please, imagine me without you)<\/p>\n
