- Review the Facts people....well as a hard core Mana fan...I have to say this DVD is cool..not the best it could have been but cool..now the DVD/CD tracks are all the songs they played during the "Amar Es Combatir" tour..any fan who went to the concert should know that. Overall..the product could have been packaged much better, a couple of extras could have been nice..like backstage access, interviews, etc. I guess the boys are getting a little too old for that! Rating: - Great ConcertWell I have to say... while the cd is really good, I wish they included more songs! I was present in the concert that they recorded for the CD and there were about 20 songs all the way from "Falta Amor" to their newest songs! If they included every song I'd say that it would have been FAR BETTER than "En Vivo" but it fell kinda short on that. However it is still very good and it is really exiting to listen how loud the people was singing every single son along with the band. Bottom line... RECOMMENDED!! Rating: - Fun to watch and listen, Great Music, could have been betterThe track listing is wrong, the new bonus songs are not on the video. Actual Track Listing: 1. Dejame Entrar 2. Manda Una Senal 3. Labios Compartidos 4. Bendita tu Luz 5. Vivir Sin Aire 6. Donde Jugaran Los Ninos 7. Mariposa Traicionera 8. El Rey 9. No ha Parado de Llover 10. El Muelle de San Blas 11. Rayando el Sol 12. Clavado en un Bar The good: Mana is awesome, need I say more? This is a great collection of Mana's greatest hits. I especially like the version of Reyando El Sol. Things that could have been better: 1. Only three songs from Amar es Combatir with most of the songs from previous albums and therefore with live versions available elsewhere. 2. NO subtitles. I don't speak spanish very well so I Loved it how on Acceso Total I was able to watch it with Spanish subtitles (to help me learn the words better) and with English subtitles (to help me figure out what it all means). None of that here. 3. No bonus materal at all. This is just songs from the conert. Rating: - Only for die hard fansAs a real Mana fan I can tell you this is enjoyable. However being objective I find it very hard to recommend this. Mana has become a product venture for the music company. Just look at the track record. Since the last live album 1994's "Mana en Vivo". Mana has had 10 cd releases. 4 original material cds; 5 CD versions of greatest hits and 1 Unplugged. This cd will have been a lot better if they applied live material from their last 14 years of original material. A third of the songs for this live album has been done in Vivo. What happen to Corazon Espinado or Angel de Amor. This would have been better if it was a live 2CD set with the latest material (95-87). Instead they rely on nostalgia. The two new songs are not that great either; One is a remake of a song from Marco Antonio Soliz which is a pretty good remake and the other original song was probably a left over from the recording sessions of their recent album. No new ground broken here. I would recommend to get the DVD "MANA ACCESSO TOTAL " to see the full experience of MANA live. Rating: - DisappointingI LOVE MANA I BUY ALL THEIR MATERIAL MY HUSBAND AND I WENT TO 5 OF THEIR AMAR ES COMBATIR CONCERTS SO WHEN I GOT MY ARDE EL CIELO DVD I WAS EXPECTING MORE. THERES NO BEHIND THE SCENES,NO COMENTS BY THE BAND NOTHING!!!!! JUST 12 SONGS OUT OF THEIR PUERTO RICO CONCERT. SAVE 20 BUCKS AND GO TO YOU TUBE YOU WILL FIND A LOT MORE FOOTAGE!!!!
