When Enrique released his first cd back in 1995, I found it terrible, well actually the music and the lyrics were good but his voice back then was horrible. But in 1997 when his second one came out I found it better.
So in 1999 after listening to hits like "Esperanza" (Hope) and "Cosas del amor" (Love's things). I bought this tittle and I liked very much. The first song "Nunca te olvidare" (I'll never forget you) is a very good love song such as "Dice por ahi" (They say there around), "Contigo" (With you) or "Alguien como tu" (someone like you).
I also like Enrique's happier songs like "Para de jugar" (Stop playing) and one of my favorites, "Ruleta rusa" (I don't know how is the name of this game in English, I'm just gonna tell you how this game is. Is a round board with several colors and each one has an award or you can lose becuase you have to make it spin and when it stops you know if you lose or win something).
Returning to the cd, it's very good, I highly recommend it.

Enrique is one of the more fulfilling artists of the current pop scene. Sure he has those naughty little boy good looks, but if you look into his eyes, you see a lot of depth. And that "old soul" persona really comes through on this album (in which he wrote a lot of the songs). His expression of love, not as hearts and candy and rainbows, but all consuming, breathtaking and confusing...a mixture of both the ultimate pleasure and the ultimate pain. For women, he expresses love through a man's eyes...as in "Desnudo" - "I lied, I dreamed and I pretended about what was outside. I am guilty for the sake of making myself into what you wanted me to be." Enrique Iglesias is worth learning Spanish for and I hope to still be listening to his work when I'm 80!!

This cd has all good songs with good lyrics and soulful music. There's really not a bad song here just a cd full of hits, so i can't really pick a favorite. Probably the most monotonous song would be #8 Para de Jugar because it only has two small pharagraphs and the chourus is just repeated over and over again. The singles chosen out of this cd really stand out from the rest, but the title theme, #2 Cosas del Amor, is also a good song. He really starts to prove what he can do with his voice, especially in #6 Alguien Como Tu, where he holds a note out for a while. This is probably his cd where he shows that he's maturing in his lyrics and music. The success from this great cd prepares him for his crossover to the English market.

Enrique is the king of writing highly emotional songs and this cd proves it. almost all of the songs are very romantic like 'sirena', and 'contigo' and 'nunca te olvidare' although some are of heartbreak, they are so well written and sung. 'ruleta rusa' has a cool beat to it, different, spices up the cd a bit. and 'dicen por ahi' makes you feel soo bad for talking bad about someone. imagine if you talked bad about an ex beau and he found out...how would you feel?? this is his best cd by far, there are soo many great songs and lyrics. It's what Enrique's music is all about...emociones puras y profundas.

This is definitly his best album, I've been a fan of his since 1995 and every song on this album is great especially Sirena go get it!

First off I like to say that I have known Enrique Iglesias since his first cd and own almost all of them expect Quizas {2002}which I have not bought to this day. But I will be adding it to my E.I. cllection and his remixes (1998) Enrique Iglesias's father Juilo Iglesias is a well known repescted singer who has been singing since the 70's and now his son to this day is a well respected singer like his father whos been singing since the middle 90's. This cd is not the original cd that I owned before. That one got badly sctrached that I had not choice to throw it away and get a new copy. I have a reprint copy which was reprinted in 2002 but thats okay I am just glad to have this wonderful cd from E.I. again which I think has so far been his best work with some of the nicest song like Esperanza and Para De Jugar which are 2 of my faves. I don't speak a lot spanish but I do understand it. But you don't have to speak spanish or just speak a lttle bit but just understand it so you can understand the betaiful words that Enrique puts into the betaiful songs of his cds.. Thank You other Enrique Fans.

I'm trying to learn Spanish so listen to Latino music to follow the words. But this is the best album I have, fantastic voice and his pronunciation is fantastic. The music is great also. I strongly recommend.

I was juat a little disappointed when I first heard this CD. Then I discovered that this was done near the start of his career, and then I found it fascinating. The first song reminded me of his father's music, and then as the CD moved towards the end, his own style was becoming more and more apparent- the one which I so enjoy today. I always love to hear Enrique sing in Spanish-his mother tongue,which is why I bought this CD. He does not disappoint in that.

Enrique Iglesias with this cd"cosas del amor"has a 5 star in the way to sing every track.His voice is very touching.all songs are beautiful."Sirena" and "Nunca te olvidare"are my favorite tracks

I can't complain about the product, the service, or the delivery. Everything was very satisfactory.
