5.0 out of 5 stars Un Día Normal is un CD excepcional, May 28, 2004
This review is from: Un Dia Normal (Audio CD)
I bought this CD on a whim after hearing "A Dios Le Pido" on the radio (as I'm sure many other people did). It has quickly become one of my favorite CD's, and I'm constantly recommending it to other people. Here's my breakdown of each of the songs.

1. A Dios Le Pido--what can I say? The rhythm is infectious, the guitar combines a Latin flourish with good straightforward pop-rock, and the chorus is easy to sing along to!

2. Es Por Ti--an earnest, heartfelt song. The lyrics border on poetry: "Tu piel tiene el color/De un rojo atardecer..."

3. Un Dia Normal--a pensive song, with expressive, echoing guitar and a sort of lilt to the rhythm. I've always thought of this as a perfect song for driving down a long stretch of road on a sunny day.

4. La Paga--one of my least favorite songs on this album, actually (though that's not saying much). The music is a little harsher, a little less melodic, though it's fitting for the song's theme.

5. La Unica--He wrote this song for his mother! It's a touching tribute, with smooth, warm instrumentation and, again, those poetic love lyrics.

6. Luna--A blithe, clever twist on the "She loves me-she loves me not" motif, with Juanes affectionately asking the moon if his girl could be the love of his life.

7. Dia Lejano--A somewhat mournful song, a more straightforward ballad. The instrumentation complements the yearning feel of the lyrics: "Tal vez, algun dia lejano, quizas/Te vuelvo encontrar...te puedo olvidar..."

8. Mala Gente--He sounds like he's having so much fun on this song! Once again, the guitar playing matches the fiery, resentful tone of his singing, and frames a rousing damnation of a malicious ex.

9. Fotografia--Juanes's and Nelly Furtado's voices are perfectly matched, and her laughter and slightly Americanized Spanish add a spontaneous quality to another song about yearning and loneliness.

10. Desde Que Despierto--This song is a little guilty pleasure of mine. Not quite as substantial as some of the other songs on the album, this one leans a little more towards pure pop, but the lyrics are so wonderfully metaphorical ("Mira que en mis llagas no hay dolor si tu eres la sal/Y mi herida no es profunda si tu eres el puñal"), and the chorus so catchy, that I can't help but love it.

11. La Historia de Juan--This is the most overtly socially critical song on the album. The story of a love-starved street child is heartbreaking, both musically and lyrically.

12. La Noche--A less "pop-rock" song, more culturally informed, but it sounds like Juanes is having fun with the vocals.

I highly recommend this CD, even if you don't speak Spanish. The music communicates on its own, and Juanes is a skilled songwriter and musician.

4.0 out of 5 stars Juanes - Artista del mes, June 16, 2002
By 
This review is from: Un Dia Normal (Audio CD)
Hace poco más de un año muy poca gente en Estados Unidos conocía el nombre Juanes. No fue hasta que se anunciaron las nominaciones para los premios Grammy 2001 que el mundo se dio cuenta de que Colombia nos estaba ofreciendo otro artista especial.

Desde Medellín salió Juan Esteban Aristizabal V, y con su primer álbum "Fíjate bien" tomó a los críticos por sorpresa, y le dio a todos el presentimiento de que una gran estrella estaba por nacer.

Al igual que con su compatriota Shakira, gran parte del encanto de Juanes es su originalidad. Es cantante, compositor, guitarrista, arreglista, productor y promotor, y al hacer su música, no pide permisos ni ofrece excusas.

Todo lo que hace Juanes viene de adentro, algo que le falta a muchos jóvenes músicos hoy en día que se dejan atrapar por las garras del comercialismo, perdiendo a la vez ese toque que los hace especiales.

Otra cosa que destaca a Juanes es su humildad. A pesar del talento increíble que obviamente posee, el se comporta como que no es nada del otro mundo, algo que en mi opinión lo hace brillar aún más.

Con su segunda producción bajo el sello Universal, "Un día normal", encontramos a un cantautor mucho más relajado, mucho más libre de expresar su arte sin miedo al que dirán. Además del ya éxito "A Dios le pido", en el álbum también se destacan temas como "La Fotografía", un dueto con la estrella canadiense Nelly Furtado que se podría convertir en un clásico por el simple hecho de que ambos jovenes tienen futuros tan brillantes por delante.

Temas como "Mala Gente" y "La Paga" demuestran el orgullo que siente Juanes por los ritmos pegajosos de su Colombia natal. Lo mismo demuestra con su versión de "La Noche", tema original del legendario Joe Arroyo.

El mundo de la música nos lo introdujo de la noche a la mañana como rockero, pero con esta nueva producción Juanes demuestra que es mucho más que eso. Ningún critico debería atreverse a clasificar este disco como un disco de rock, porque eso sería encasillar un trabajo que de seguro cruzará fronteras musicales en todas partes del mundo.

Hasta el día de hoy mucha gente todavía no sabe mucho de Juanes, pero con el sencillo "A Dios le pido" escuchándose fuertemente en estaciones desde Los Angeles hasta Miami, no pasará mucho tiempo hasta que el nombre y el hombre se conviertan en otro símbolo de lo que orgullosamente ofrece Latinoamérica para el mundo entero.

4.0 out of 5 stars I really like this cd !!!!, May 29, 2003
This review is from: Un Dia Normal (Audio CD)
Juanes is great!! I discovered him this year, and I only regret I didn't listen his songs sooner. He is colombian, like Shakira, and even though they sing quite differently, both are wonderful.

This, "Un día normal", is Juanes's second solo album (the first was "Fíjate bien"), and I believe it is a keeper. I didn't give it 5 stars only because there are 3 songs I didn't care for (I didn't hate them, but they weren't as good as the rest).

If I had to choose my favorite songs in this cd, I'd choose "A Dios le pido" y "Mala gente". Both have rhytm, and convey feelings everybody has sooner or later. For example, in "Mala gente" he tells a ex lover who was awful to him that she can go to hell (but in quite a funny way).

Listen to those 2 songs (they are in this web site as samples), and if you can, buy the cd. It's worth it !!! :)
