Five Songs to Wear Your Highest Heels To: Mike Sain't Louis and the Dance Floor as a Place to Settle Scores
From a drag queen on broken heels to a wardrobe its owner can no longer raid, an annotated list of five tracks by the Madrid indie alternative artist known as the first AI singer-songwriter
MADRID, 25 October 2026 — In the songs of Mike Sain't Louis, what you wear to go out is rarely just an outfit. Heels snap, suits get stolen, smiles are put on like make-up, and the dance floor is where a person decides who they are going to be tonight. The Madrid indie alternative artist, who presents himself as "the first AI singer-songwriter", has released 273 singles and more than 280 music videos in about two years under the name PLANETA GAYFOLK. Here are five that belong on any night out in heels, real or imagined.
A note on method first. Mike writes every lyric himself; the music and vocal performance are produced with artificial intelligence, using Suno as a tool he directs take by take. Everything below can be downloaded free, lyrics included, at mikesaintlouis.com.
1. "Doña Rogelia" — the strut of someone who got their wardrobe back
This one opens like a fairy tale and turns into a roast. It is, the lyric says, the story of how art — something the target doesn't even understand — made him insignificant, and how art, like karma, sometimes takes its time but never misses against con men. What follows is a fabulously rude inventory of a "coordinator" bought at the market: ten per cent genuine, ninety per cent fake, an item from the returns bin.
The detail that fits this list is a single line: let's see what he does now that he can no longer steal the narrator's suits and clothes. It is the moment the wardrobe goes back on its rightful owner. The title itself is the final punchline, which we will leave you to discover.
"Getting your clothes back sounds petty," Mike says. "It isn't. When someone has taken everything from you, putting on your own jacket again is the first act of freedom."
2. "Tengo argumento" — a playful walk across the room
If "Doña Rogelia" is a stomp, "Tengo argumento" is a sway. Built on wordplay around a "María" who is definitely not the biscuit brand, not the folk singer and not the saint, but the powerful, exuberant María who is the narrator's lover, it is one long double meaning delivered with a wink. Then comes the twist: the narrator was going to marry his boyfriend of twenty years, but didn't want a threesome with María, so he sent him packing. The song ends with a cheeky Spanish catchphrase about having "argument" — substance — on your side.
It is the kind of track you put on when you've decided the night is yours and no one's opinion matters.
3. "La primera drag de Benidorm" — when the heels break
Not every night out is glamorous, and this is the darkest song on the list. A drag performer drags herself through the city "con tacones rotos", on broken heels, spitting dreams at every traffic light, skirt burning, name undone. The verses pile up wounds — censored photos, a neighbourhood hunger, a tongue cut short — in a chant that refuses to be pretty.
Then, at the very end, the turn: she is bleeding out, and she dances. It is the whole philosophy of the dance floor in one word.
4. "Dark Corners" — high heels, low mood
Written in Spanglish, "Dark Corners" captures the person who goes out and shines because staying home would be worse. The key line says it all: "My heels are high, mi mood is low." The narrator dances in the dark corners with their own shadow, with no applause and no rumours, smiling so as not to feel.
"Some of the bravest people I know are the ones dancing at three in the morning to avoid crying at home," Mike says. "I wanted to write for them without telling them to cheer up."
5. "I Am Yurena" — glitter as armour
To close, something defiant. Neon light, plastic love, glitter nights and a plastic crown: "I Am Yurena" takes the language of cheap glamour and wears it proudly. The Spanish chorus insists on a chosen name, tells the doubters to go and check the archives, and adds, in effect, that if it bothers them, too bad. It is the song for walking in like you own the place.
Why these songs work for British listeners
Britain has some of the most loved queer nightlife in Europe, from Soho to Canal Street to Brighton, and a drag culture that has become part of mainstream entertainment. That scene understands, better than most, that a pair of heels can be a costume, a weapon and a confession all at once. Mike's songs speak that language fluently, even when they speak it in Spanish.
Where to listen
All five tracks, and the rest of the catalogue, can be streamed and downloaded free at https://mikesaintlouis.com, with full lyrics. They are also on Spotify, Deezer and other major platforms. The GAYFOLK trilogy — "Descubierto un nuevo planeta llamado GAYFOLK", "Ojalá se pudiera viajar a GAYFOLK" and "El día de la liberación" — sets the journey towards a planet where everyone can live as they are.
