Through the course of Como Ama Una Mujer, the first full-blown collection of Spanish-language tunes from multicultural diva Jennifer Lopez, we keep waiting for it to happen. A sweltering, hands-in-the-air dance anthem--the kind that made Lopez a superstar. Alas, the club beats never materialize: not even a soul-diva shimmy. The closest Lopez comes to is midtempo first single "Que Hiciste." (Seek out the pulsing, reggaeton-flavored remix for maximum dance floor fabulousness.) What we get here is a surprisingly solid collection of elegant ballads and rock-flavored tunes that showcase new vocal strengths and surprising lyrical maturity. Producers Marc Anthony, Estefano and Julio Reyes give Lopez the gloss without overpowing her, a key element to the disc's success. La Lopez recycles one track from 2005's Rebirth, "(Can't Believe) This Is Me," which pops up here as the superior "Porque te Marchas." The disc's second half is a sweeping, often gorgeous, stream of romantic consciousness, starting with the lovely "Tu" and gliding through the gently chugging "Sola." And the beautiful closing track "Adios" is a standout, pairing Lopez's lilting vocals with a gentle string arrangement and a rousing chorus of voices. A sterling achievement from a diva whose talent is just beginning to blossom. --Joey Guerra

1 out of 5 stars Terribly Disappointed.......2007-06-27

Though her voice is good; she should stick to Pop music. Too many ballads and the soul searching lyrics. Lyrics not appropriate for her. She sings about sadness and disappointment when we all know her life is so different. The songs did not match her or what she represents to Latinos and women. Jennifer should continue to do Pop music and upbeat tempos and forget about the torch songs of pain and abandonment. Not a good match. What were her producers thinking. Hello!!!! Wasted my money. I never listen to it again.

1 out of 5 stars Mi opinion, escucha este CD antes de comprarlo!.......2007-06-21

Empiezo en comentar que cuando salio este CD a la venta pense que con el apoyo de Marc Anthony este proyecto iba a ser un exito. Desgraciadamente me equivoque. Bueno, la colaboracion de Marc Anthony es evidente en las canciones seleccionadas para este CD. Desafortunadamente la voz de JLO no tiene ese sentimiento para cantar estas canciones de amor. Yo no se si se precipitaron al terminar este CD porque yo tengo el DVD del primer concierto de JLO que fue grabado en la Isla del encanto y la interpretacion de varias baladas por la sexy JLO fue encantadora y ahi si escuche sentimiento cuando cantaba. Tal vez la Diva se sintio sentimental estando en Puerto Rico. En este CD no hay una cancion que me haya hecho sentir WOW. Pudo haber sido porque el Espanol no es la lengua principal de la JLO. Asi que te recomiendo que escuches este CD antes de comprarlo para que no te quejes despues de haber pagado precio completo.

3 out of 5 stars 1 hit song.......2007-06-15

there is only 1 hit, the others are tolerable. spanish is good, but her voice is a little shakey on ballads

5 out of 5 stars best ever from jennifer lopez.......2007-06-05

I can hardly wait for the next all spanish cd from jennifer lopez - she could be the female luis miguel! it is just beautiful - especially "tu" and "por arriesgarnos". what took her so long to do this?

5 out of 5 stars Como Ama Una Mjuer Review.......2007-06-02

To be honest with you, I did not like her English songs. She sings better in Spanish. I was impressed to hear that all her songs on the CD "Como Ama Una Mujer" were all knock-outs. I heard her husband Marc Anthony, in the back ground. I know his voice anywhere, and it sounded terrific. She can go a long way if she continue singing her songs in Spanish, even if she mixes a little bi-lingual It would be even better. I love them both and God has bless them together. And this CD I feel that it was the root of there love for each other and a new beginning. No words can express how I feel about them and their songs.

5 out of 5 stars UNREAL!! Alicia's voice is OUTSTANDING!!!!.......2007-05-13

This album is perfection in one word; it has beautiful songs w/beautiful arrangements and a singer with the most beautiful voice and raw passion. PLEASE buy this album; you won't be disappointed. I have all of Alicia Villarreal's songs, from when she was in Grupo Limite singing in a tejano/norteño style and she is amazing no matter what, but her rancheras are truly special; her voice was made for the genre. To make a comparison, this mariachi album of hers is equally as solid as her earlier 'Soy Lo Prohibido' but in my opinion the songs on that were simply inimitable; that is by far her best CD; the choice of songs you cannot surpass. Regardless, this album too, is magnificent in its own right; thanks to Alicia Villarreal and her impeccable taste as well as talent. Gracias Alicia!

5 out of 5 stars A 'MAGNIFICO' GRAMMY-NOMINATED MARIACHI PERFORMANCE !!.......2006-11-19

Five MUSICAL Stars! Wow!! This magnificent Latin Grammy-nominated CD is by the Grammy-winning Alicia Villarreal, who is recognized as one of Latin America's finest singers. The wonderful CD cover photo showing the beautiful laser-eyed Alicia decked out in a sombrero, striking a mariachi pose but without the ornamented 'traje de charro', speaks for itself. Actually, the theme of this double platinum CD is a woman's pride and celebrates the triumphs and tribulations of femininity. From the standpoint of production values, musical arrangements, musicians, and performances, this CD is a wonderful experience and is produced by the super producer/musician/songwriter Joan Sebastian, a Latin music legend since his rise in the 1970's.

Once called "the next Selena", Latin Grammy-winning singer Alicia Villarreal steps away from that unnecessary title and delivers a STUNNING personal performance of mariachi-influenced music, done her way with her golden voice. And she is AWESOME, showing her versatility in every way. No mere copying the most popular mariachi 'serenatas', waltzes, and polkas, she puts her personal stamp on a great selection of songs. Going from a whisper to soaring above the trumpets and strings, she is magnificent, flamboyant, and in control. All sung in Spanish with no translation necessary since the music is laden with pure emotion and sensuality.

The 'Pieces De Resistance, the best of the best, are all 10 songs. Each one is a jewel in itself. But I especially like the awesome "Enredo" (~Tangle) with it's shifting time signatures and restless, skipping beat. "Qué Te Parece" (What It Seems To You) and "Las Mujeres Olvidadas" (The Forgotten Women) are incredible performances. The heartbreaking "Insensible a Ti (Me Pone a Mil)" was #1 on the Mexican Billboard charts and, beyond her outstanding vocal, is notable for the arrangement and background execution over which she SOARS in a very touching way. "Ni Por Interesada" takes us deep into Mexico and back in time in a wonderful way. This CD could serve as a very good introduction to Mariachi music. Alicia Villarreal was destined to sing Mariachi and is casting a spell across Latin America with her total musical artistry. My Highest Recommendation. A sensational performance worthy of more than Five Stars!

(*This review is based on a 10 track ITunes download.
*For those who wonder about her authenticity, Alicia headlined the 2006 Las Cruces International Mariachi Conference Spectacular Concert in New Mexico at the Pan American Center with some of the cream of crop of Mariachi groups performing along side. She's the Real Deal. )

4 out of 5 stars Outstanding vocals by ALICIA!.......2006-05-11

I've been a big fan of Alicia's voice and style since her Grupo Limite debut. I most say that this new cd released by her,it's her best solo release to date.
I heard the first single from this cd "Que no se Entere"on spanish television and was impressed with the powerful vocals, music arrangements and song lyrics that I had to buy the cd.
I was totally blown away by other songs in the cd..such as my favorite.."Insensible a ti(me pone a mil)" & "Que Te parece".
Excellent overall cd by one of the best female voices in spanish music--ALICIA VILLARREAL!

4 out of 5 stars Great compilation.......2002-05-10

I don't actually own this particular compilation, however, since I own nearly every recording represented on these discs...I think I'm qualified to comment. This is a wonderful representation of the high quality of work that DRG Records does.
The previous review is way off the mark. This is definitely not a waste of time or money. This is 25 years of preserving Broadway shows, Off-Broadway shows, studio recordings (mostly from the city center concerts), etc. So what if they "aren't as good as the original", DRG is preserving many recordings and artists that other mainstream labels don't or won't. You have wonderful recordings from Brian Stokes Mitchell, Nathan Lane, Debbie Gravitte, Tyne Daly, Anthony Perkins, Joanna Gleason, Marin Mazzie, Carol Burnett, Heather Headley, Patti LuPone, Barbara Cook, etc., and many of these are from Original Cast Recordings just as they appeared on Broadway. This is an excellent sampler of the work going on at DRG. No...I'm not an employee...just an avid listener and collector of theatre recordings.

1 out of 5 stars A disappointment.......2001-12-15

There's a reason you've probably never heard of most of the songs and shows on this album, not to mention most of the artists. This is a second-rate collection of second-rate numbers performed by mostly second-rate artists. In the case of the shows that were revivals, the performances on the original cast recordings were better. Don't waste your money.

5 out of 5 stars Hot from start to finish--you will never forget this CD........1999-09-11

This CD is simply one of the classics of Latin Pop, defining the music genre in many senses. If you are starting a Latin Pop collection, this record cannot be ignored. You will play this CD once--and continue to play it over and over again. A timeless masterpiece of inventive pop that even the artist himself has had difficulty replicating.

5 out of 5 stars Simplemente genial - no sólo para sus incondicionales.......1999-01-15

The first of the really good Luis Miguel records. Has some classic ballads and funky uptempo songs. An excellent latino effort from this amazing singer and a good place to start your collection.

El primer disco cien por cien genial de Luismi (empezó poco a poco con el anterior 'Soy Como Quiero Ser'). Este tío podría cantar los números de la guía telefónica y sería igual de emocionante con la voz que tiene. Mucha gente asocia a Luismi con sus baladas, pero en realidad son las rolas con marcha que son las mejores en este disco. En especial destacan 'Un Hombre Busca Una Mujer', 'Separados' y 'Soy Un Perdedor' (con una sección de metales fuera de serie), pero cabe mencionar la clásica 'La Incondicional' y 'Por Favor Señora' que son mis baladas favoritas en este álbum. La combinación de la voz de Luismi, las excelentes canciones, en su mayoría compuestas por Juan Carlos Calderón, y los grandes músicos que participan (sobre todo los bateristas Jeff Porcaro y John Robinson) convierten este disco en algo especial que pega muchísimo. ¡¡Viva el Rey!!

Amazon.com essential recording

Por Una Mujer is the aural equivalent of a love letter as drawn out by superstar lady's man Julio Iglesias. At the most virile prime of his vocal career, Iglesias is a long, tall drink of water in the form of song. Utilizing Spanish vocals save for his take on Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline," Iglesias is the epitome of the Latin lover: smoldering, yet tender, assuredly masculine, yet unafraid of deep feeling. Here, the most famous Spanish singer in the world is at his most favored, allowing less to be more, on both originals and carefully chosen covers. --Paige La Grone

Cura is wonderful but the style on this recording was not at all to my taste, my husband's taste or to a hispanic family's taste who know more about the "bolero" style than we do. Unfortunately, we all hated it. It is a sort of a slow, slighly jazzy drawl of music that never grabbed any of us.

5 out of 5 stars Totally Smitten (Hook, Line and Sinker!!!).......2003-07-05

I first heard Mr. Cura on a duet with Sarah Brightman (There For Me), and I said I have to have an album of this 'muy macho' guy. I'm not really a fan of opera music so I chose "Boleros" and can't help but swoon over this total stand-out of a guy. And his being so handsome is an added bonus. This album is a must-have for all hopeless romantics.

5 out of 5 stars A Voice Of Pure Beauty!!!.......2003-01-17

First Off I Am NOT An Opera Buff!! I Don't Speak Spanish! But After Discovering Luis Miguel & Alejandro Fernandez I Fell In Love With These Songs, Based On That Love I Purchased This Cd And Have Become An Instant Fan Of Jose Cura!!! His Voice Is Glorious & He Sings These Songs With Such Passion & Tenderness That He Takes You Beyond This Earth And A Little Closer To BLISS!!! Please Buy This And Add Some Romance To Your Life!!!!

4 out of 5 stars unusual but lovely venture.......2002-12-12

Folks, let me offer a word of piece. Jose Cura the tenor and Jose Cura the pop singer are like two different personalities. Yes, to those of us who heard him live in opera (and haven't heard his "Anhelo" CD) this comes as a surprise. After all, not a single high C (or B for that matter) makes a presence, and majority of the selections are sung in near-whisper manner. It's decidedly un-operatic.
But it's an interesting and lovely album of songs arranged in a soft jazz-like way, and Cura invests a lot of feeling into each of these. I listened to the album about 3 times before coming to appreciate it. Do likewise and you'll descover a totally new side to this remarkable artist.

5 out of 5 stars Everyone's a critic.......2002-08-26

...

As for this CD, there is nothing to say other than FABULOUS!!!
By and far one of the best CD's I own and a most brilliant example of Mr. Curas' vocal and interprative talents.
While he does sound more baritonal than anything else, it is exactly that which sets this CD apart form any of Domingos' "pop" efforts....or any CD of contemporary nature by other Tenors i.e. Boccelli etc.
Granted, Mr. Cura avoids most high notes (the highest sung on any song is an A natural), but given the song selections and that this is a vocal Jazz CD, there really is no room nor need for any excessive Tenoral vocalizing.
If you like Jazz and want to hear a world class Tenor sing it, purchase this CD.
Unless you belong to the "If it's not Pavarotti, it's no good.." crowd, you're promised to enjoy this most recent effort by Mr. Cura immensely.

Pepe Aguilar, is one of a kind the way he sings makes one feel every word. The heart he puts into his music ( sentimiento ). I love his music, He is the WOW! for singers. Any song Ranchera, Balada, Banda. I have yet to hear a song that will not be done to excellence if he sings it. I Love Pepe.

5 out of 5 stars Pepe Aguilar Rules.......2000-09-15

From the first time I saw the movie El Hijo De Lamberto Quintero to now I've been a Pepe Aguilar fan. It was the song Esta Tristesa Mia which hit the heart profoundly. If you haven't heard this song, it is in one of his albums con Tambora. This CD along with the rest that he has con Mariachi are simply masterpieces and cannot be duplicated. Pepe directs and produces most of his albums, and not even Alejandro Fernandez can do that, nor can he sing con Tambora. I really recommend any of his albums, simply because he is one of the best out there today.

4 out of 5 stars . . ........2000-07-09

I agree that this CD is wonderful for a person with such a melodic and sweet voice Pepe Aguilar does a wonderful job singing rancheras. BUT in no way is he beter than Vicente Fernandez, the man is THE charro alegre de mexico he has a strong and raspy voice made to sing ONLY rancheras he's a national treasure and can't be surpassed. Oh and by the way, this CD is wonderful, one of my favorites hope this helped you in your selectoin ;)

5 out of 5 stars Jerezano.......2000-03-24

Pepe Aguilar did it again another great cd a favorite in my list. he proved again that he's better than Vicente & Alejandro Fernandez. a better everything Pepe is the total package a great vocalist director producer and a real charro like his father the great Antonio Aguilar the songs in this cd are very good sung the way only Pepe can.nobody even comes close to his style.I especially liked the song titled "El Zacatecano" because it mentiones Jerez the city were my parents were born i cant wait for his next cd wich wil be a hit too.

4 out of 5 stars Recomendado; si gustan de baladas rancheras..........2000-02-22

Esta vez Pepe se paso con las baladas, pero ay que reconocer que son baladas muy hermosas...y con letras llenas de sentido... aunque para mi gusto "por mujeres como tu" supera a este ultimo CD...

Eso si los arreglos musicales de "por una mujer bonita" son muy autenticos eh inovadores... no cabe duda que Pepe esta buscando un estilo propio y bien definido...

5 out of 5 stars Las ninas se vuelven mujeres, que bonita transformacion........2000-07-13

This CD was made when Julio's eldest daughter was growing up. It is very emocional for someone who knows about the real meaning of life. Listen to these songs, they are interpreted with much devotion. These songs go together with "Moments" and that's why I've picked both.

5 out of 5 stars DANCE ALL NIGHT!!!.......2005-08-13

THIS WAS REALLY CONSIDERED MONICA'S FIRST MASTERPIECE IF YOU WILL. RIGHTFULLY SO! SHE WAS COMPLETELY INVOLVED IN THIS RECORD AND SHE REALLY DID BREAK BOUNDARIES WITH HER INSANELY AMAZING VOICE, HER MIX OF DANCE AND ELECTRONICA AND HER BEAUTIFUL BALLADS. SO MUCH IS COMMENTED ABOUT MONICA'S VOICE (AS IT SHOULD) BECAUSE IT'S SO POWERFUL AND HER DELIVERY IS VERY FIERCE. BUT SHE ALSO WRITES GREAT SONGS. I'VE LISTENED TO THIS C.D. ENDLESSLY AND I SWEAR I STILL HAVE NOT GOTTEN TIRED OF IT! IT HAS IT ALL FOLKS! GET IT NOW!!!

5 out of 5 stars MEGA GREAT ALBUM !!!!.......2005-05-04

I have had this album for a long time, now that she is releasing her greatest hits ( released only in spain and maybe mexico ) i have realiazed this could be her best work so far. Chicas malas is a great album also but i beleive Palabra de Mujer has a little more of her.
I recomend this album. her debut album is real good also. Minage has a little wierd sound, away from her original sounds. Sobrebirire is one of the few songs i love from this album.
This is Spanish version of Madonna

5 out of 5 stars Exelent album.......2005-02-04

Exelent album. I recommend it so much. My favorite songs of this record are: Desátame, Empiezo a recordarte & Tú y yo volvemos al amor. Definitelly buy it.

5 out of 5 stars world's greatest singer.......2003-09-24

Monica has the greatest voice of any singer performing today. This album illustrates her range and passion for her music. You don't need to understand Spanish to really enjoy it.

5 out of 5 stars may be best album ever recorded!!.......2003-08-08

Monica has done a marvelous job demonstrating her vocal skills. Anyone who likes great music sung from the heart will enjoy this album. You don't need to know Spanish to enjoy it.

The soundtrack to the biggest Latin American hunk-fest film of 2005, this 16-track collection is the best that the Spanish language alternative music scene has to offer. The story revolves around a wife who decides to trade an unsatisfying marriage for a clandestine affair with her husband's poet brother. Appropriately, the songs exude the hopefulness of initial romantic attraction, the sexiness of when the connection is consummated, and the chaos of when things turn bad. Kudos to A&R guy Terry Borden for picking the material, but the bands really deliver the goods. Tanghetto's techno-tango version of New Order's dance floor classic "Blue Monday" is absolute fun without losing the unstoppable groove of the original. The Pinker Tones "TMCR Grand Finale" is brown-eyed soul of the highest order, and Aterciopelados singer Andrea Echeverri's "Baby Blues" is a strong intimate effort from this star. As far as soundtracks go, this is on a par with the great Y Tu Mama Tambien. --Tad Hendrickson

Album Description

The soundtrack to one of Latin America's biggest films of last year. It follows the success of other influential films/soundtracks that have defined the new wave of Latin American cinema, such as "Amores Perros" and "Y Tu Mama Tambien". Highlights include Tanghetto's new "electro tango" version of the seminal New Order favorite "Blue Monday", and a re-working of the La Ley classic track, "Mentira" by Beto Cuevas, the vocalist from multi-Grammy winning artist La Ley, who also appears in the film.

5 out of 5 stars Latin electronica sampler.......2007-01-31

This is an excellent overview of Latin-electronica that is as contemporary as it is innovative. Some of the songs have tangoesque influences, similiar to the Bajofondo Club release from a few years back. Other styles are more in the vein of Cafe Tacuba's venture into electronica or Nortec(who has a song featured). In any event the songs are really quite tasty and have a nice dance club edge that lies somewhere between chill and roc n Espanol. There is even reggae-dub infused songs , like the offering by Mexican Institute of Sound's "Dub a-El Tiempo Es Muy Largo" which features street scene soundtracks mixed in with echo tweeks and thumping bass lines. The music runs the gamut of different emotions from tenderness to chaos but all with style that is modern and reflective of the urban experience. There are a few well known artists from the Latin genre, most notably Nortec, Beto Cuevas(La Ley), M.I.O.S. and Andrea Echeverri(Aterciopelados). Songs of particular note include "Malato" by Novalima that sounds like a Susan Baca influenced song that is sorrowful sprinkled with jazz trumpet and with heavy percussion throughout, the Cafe Tacubaesque "Transan" by Intoxicados that has catchy lyrics and beats, the hip-hopish "I Drink She Smokes" by Kemo The Blaxican,the remake of "Blue Monday" by Tanghetto that is dance floor ready, the trippy "Olividela Compa" by Nortec Collective, the remix stripped down version of "Mentira" by Beto Cuevas and the lovely personal "Baby Blues " by Andrea Echeverri.If you are new to Latin electronica and some of its hybrid offshoots than this is a great place to get into the music. If you like it already than this is a great offering from a variety of artists. Recommended for those with an ear to the ground to know what is going down; it is the music of the streets of the barrios and the urban sprawls of the big cities.

4 out of 5 stars ElectroLatin.......2006-05-25

Though labeled a "soundtrack" (because it is, in fact, music from a film) this serves as an excellent introduction and overview to the contemporary latin, especially Mexican, electronica scene. Highlights include the Gotan-esque tango of Tanghetto's "Blue Monday" (yes, the New Order classic as interpreted by jazzy bandoleon players), the suave hip-hoppish "Don't Let Go" by Pacha, and tracks by Bitman and Roban, The Pinker Tones, and Nortec Collective. Highly recommended for that margarita or mojito-spashed summer party you're getting ready to throw or attend.

5 out of 5 stars Incredible soundtrack with great electronica.......2006-04-15

I picked this album up after hearing Tanghetto's incredible electro-tango cover of the New Order classic "Blue Monday" on KCRW. Needless to say, I was not disappointed. This soundtrack is a great survey of today's Latin electronic music scene - I really enjoyed the cuts from Nortec Collective, Mexican Institute of Sound, and The Pinker Tones.

Although I'm not a huge La Ley fan, it was awesome seeing Beto Cuevas in the movie and I liked his solo re-working of the La Ley hit "Mentira". All in all, this is probably the best soundtrack I've picked up in a while.
