Ranchera (pronounced: [ranˈtʃeɾa]), or canción ranchera is a genre of the traditional music of Mexico... Traditional rancheras are about love, patriotism or nature. Rhythms can have a metric in 2/4 (ranchera polkeada), 3/4 (ranchera valseada), or 4/4 (bolero ranchero) reflecting the tempo of, respectively, the polka, the waltz, and the bolero... Instrumentation may include guitars, strings, trumpets, and/or accordions.

I especially love the songs with an accordian in the background. >.>
