5.0 out of 5 stars Latin passion and artistry, May 13, 2001

This review is from: Alejandro Sanz 3 (Audio CD)

This CD by Spanish artist Alejandro Sanz, simply titled "3," is a truly outstanding collection of Latin pop. I consider Sanz to be a poet as well as a singer. He is the sole author of all but one of the songs on this CD (he co-wrote the one remaining song, "Quiero morir en tu veneno," with two others). He sings with a distinctively dramatic style; at times it's almost as if he were performing in a Broadway musical. His style on the CD is pop, with rock touches; all the lyrics are in Spanish.

The CD starts out with a particularly bold, dramatic performance on "La fuerza del corazon." This is followed by "Por bandera," which has a fun, bouncy sound. Another highlight of the CD is Sanz's passionate performance on the striking song "Quiero morir en tu veneno." He gives a particularly over-the-top performance on "Lo ves?"; at some points in the song, it sounds like he's going to burst into tears. "Lo ves?" actually appears in two versions, the second being a simple arrangement for piano and voice.

This is a beautiful CD by a performer of tremendous talent and passion. You don't need to understand a word of Spanish to feel the emotion in Sanz's voice. This is an essential addition to any serious collection of contemporary Latin music.

I'm the proud owner of this cd, and can recommend it to others, disregarding whether they speak spanish or not. Yes, the whole cd is in spanish, but even if you don't understand the language you'll be able to comprehend the feelings it evokes.
I really like this cd, even though the songs make you rather sad... If you can, listen to some of the sample songs, like "La fuerza del corazón". Nothing I can say in behalf of this cd could mean to you as much as actually listening to it. Then you'll understand.
