Biography

Guaemalan singer-songwriter Ricardo Arjona is known for his socially aware lyrics and protest songs. The young Arjona gave up a career as a basketball player to pursue his love of music. He moved to Mexico City for the opportunities that the city afforded and secured a deal with Polygram for the release of his first album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Un clasico, December 4, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Animal Nocturno (Audio CD)
Este album es fenomenal. Me encanta su "cover" de Tiempo en una botella (Jim Croce). Siempre me hace llorar. Arjona es un gran compositor que usa la vida de todos los dias como material para escribir canciones con letras muy reflectivase inteligentes y profundas, y no solamente me refiero a Animal Nocturno, si no a toda su arte. Este disco contiene el buen "rock" para sus fiestas, no? "Mujeres," por ejemplo es una de las mejores canciones de rock de los principios de los años noventas. Arjona tiene tambien un sentido de humor y el tono sarcastico que a veces adopta es muy agradable "Y si habitaran la luna, habra mas astronautas que arenas en el mar." ("Mujeres") "Que la URSS ya no existe, que se casa Maria, que la esposa de Juan ya se estreno como amante.." ("Como olvidarte") , pero sobre todo las palabras de Arjona son como bellas y honestas, y reflejan el mundo de afuera y adentro. Desde "Libre" (una canción que alienta a quitarse el antifaz y hacer de tu vida algo que podas amar) hasta "Jesus Verbo No Substantivo" ("...se resume en amor, vamos ve y practicalo..") --un disco fenomenal, no te lo perdas, especialmente si a vos te gustaron otros discos de Arjona. Para mi este disco es un clasico.

5.0 out of 5 stars EN EL PRINCIPIO ERA EL VERBO..., June 22, 2000
This review is from: Animal Nocturno (Audio CD)
Desde que escuché por vez primera la canción Jesús es Verbo supe que Arjona tenía algo que los "artistas" en serie no tienen: una pizca de conciencia. Este es su primer trabajo y uno de los mejores. Muy, muy rebelde.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rebel Poet, January 14, 2005
By 
German "Gere" (Phoenix, AZ, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Animal Nocturno (Audio CD)
I just love the way Arjona writes, although many people consider him as a trovador (minstrel), he looks more to me like those persons you find in a bar, armed with thousands of tales. Animal Nocturno was Arjona's blessing & curse- his fame increased so much that costed his privacy. Being just one more guy in the city was (at least to me) the key of writing those delicious and fun tales- Animal Nocturno, Yo Te Encontrare, Quien Diria, etc. Jesus Verbo No Sustantivo has such a beatiful message, the lyrics make so much sense- "Brother, what are you doing reading the Bible all the day? What's written talks about love, go and try it", "Praying Our Father 10 times won't bring the dead person back to life", "There are more religions in the world than happy childern", etc. Animal Nocturno is Arjona's most richful work, when he was a rebel poet, a guy who was disrespecful to the music by his way of writing, the essence of that album.
