Binding: Audio CDEAN: 0044001753220 Label: Universal Latino Manufacturer: Universal Latino MPN: 017532 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Universal Latino Release Date: May 21, 2002 Studio: Universal Latino Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Colombian singer-songwriter Juanes's second solo album is many things: poetic, lyrical, heartfelt, and intelligent. Ordinary, however, would not be among the list of adjectives. The humble title, Un Dia Normal, is more a description of the album's overall themes. It's a slicker and catchier collection than Juanes's politically minded 2000 album Fijate Bien, which earned seven Latin Grammy nominations and tons of critical attention. Un Dia Normal finds the former member of rock outfit Ekhymosis contemplating an array of inner emotions--primarily life, love, and loss--all anchored by Gustavo Santaolalla's tight, precise production work. "La Unica" is a sweet and tuneful love letter, while "Mala Gente" finds Juanes damning a cruel lover to hell--literally. "A Dios le Pido" is an intoxicating swirl of cumbia, reggae, and folk rhythms, but it's the bittersweet duet "Fotografia" that truly soars. Juanes's unassuming vocal style is the perfect complement to Canadian songbird Nelly Furtado's lilting soprano, creating a shining moment among an already impressive collection of gems. --Joey Guerra Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Great Rock AlbumI bought this CD after listening to Austin City Limits concert featuring Juanes. That was the first time I've heard him sing, and I loved the music immediately. I especially like the following tracks: La Paga, Mala Gente, Fotografia, and La Noche. Overall, the entire album is good. Great rock music, that's gonna make you wanna dance. Especially great for summer parties. Rating: - Excellent - from an English standpointAs someone who (shamefully) does not speak Spanish, I found this album completely easy to listen to. My friend introduced me to Juanes, and I have been a fan ever since. His style of singing is excellent. This album is extremely catchy, mixed with pop and rock. Love it.

Dosent matter that it's not in english because everything sounds better in espanyol!!! The singer has won numeros latin grammy awards and a couple million fans can't go wrong either! I absoutly love and recomend this cd!!!! Rating: - Love him :-()I've loved Juanes since about 2001 when I saw him on the Latin Grammy's. I love Latin music and he's amazing (and hot too). His voice is great and the music is terrific. Sure, I don't necessarily know what he's singing about, but it sounds romantic and beautiful. My favourite song is A Dios Le Pido. It's great. I've got a couple of his cds, but this is the best of his. For all Latin lovers, go get this. |
