"Spanish Guitar" is the third single from Toni Braxton's third studio album, "The Heat" (2000). Released in 2000, the song was written by Diane Warren, who also wrote 1996's "Un-Break My Heart". It was never released as a commercial single in the United States, causing the song to chart outside the top ninety-five of the "Billboard" Hot 100. This song remains a fan favorite as Braxton often performs the dance version live.

Music video

The video opens with Braxton floating on top of the water. The scene quickly changes to a crowded cafe and centers on a Latin man playing the guitar. The scene changes to a modern white and red room where Braxton, wearing a red dress, sings her longing to be in his arms. There are several shots of him playing the guitar than the guitar morphing into Braxton in his arms. Towards the end, he and Braxton have a dance scene together. This video was directed by Billie Woodruff, who also directed the videos for "Un-Break My Heart", "He Wasn't Man Enough", and "Just Be a Man About It".
