Manny Manuel is one of the best merengue singers ever, and this is his best album. It is the album that shows his greatest vocal range and style, the most irresistible songs, and perfecty polished arrangements and background vocals. There are 12 songs in all, including 2 salsas.

Manny has a voice you never tire of. He is alternatately mellow (Parece Mentira), bluesy (Payaso), playful (Y Lloras pro mi), naive (Mi Primier Beso), exuberant (quien vas a eganer), suave (Amor en el olvido), and on and on. Se va, Se va is a tour de force of vocal style. The two salsas are very noteworthy, proving he is not just a merengue singer. His expression and style are just amazing, he has one of the most naturally perfect voices I have ever heard, ideal for this kind of music.

The arrangements are just about letter perfect, the background vocals excellent and integral part of each song. Merengue is often consdired more "light weight" than salsa; but when you have material and perfomances like this, there is no need for the music to take a back seat to any other form.

Those who are familiar with Lleno de Vida already, but not this one, should really take a listen to this older CD. You will love this album.

Manny can make any song into a hit. His voice is absolutely incredible. I love the lyrics. It has great dancing beats. I can listen to this C.D. over and over, and will never get tired of listening to it! Anna Dia

This album is great. A lot of people really slept on this album but this is a great piece of work. I've got to admit that it took me a little time to catch on with this cd but eventually I caught on and enjoyed the good music and beautiful lyrics this album offers. The two salsa that are in this album are very good. The lyrics are great and the production was on point. Most of the merengues are very good. Once again Ramon Orlando and Manny Manuel teamed up and came up with a very good song in "Lloras por mi", this song is very good to dance and the lyrics have meaning. This song is typical Ramon Orlando Through Manny's wonderful voice. Other songs which are very good are: "Mi Primer Beso", "Se Va Se Va", "Parece Mentira", "Si No Fui Yo", "Loba Feroz", "Payaso" and "A Quien VAs a Enganar". Overall this album is a must and believe me people if you haven't caught on with this album, don't waste anymore time and go out and get it, and if you have it and don't listen to it, get it out and play it and you'll see what I mean.

I think that his new CD as well as his first few CD's are the best that I've ever heard in my life time and we love his songs as much as we love Mannie Manuel. Te amo!!!!
