I really like Alejandra's music, I've been buying her cd's sience the early 90's and all of them have been very good. Now I can say that even though I like her whole discography, since a few years I enjoy more her music because her voice is stronger and she doesn't have to scream to make a rock song. She can simply sing naturally and make a song, a gem. I think that calling this album "Fuerza" (Strengh) was the best way to describe it because is intense but soft at the same time.
This production was recorded in Italy and has a list of top italian musicians. Alejandra has credits as co-producer and has co-written almost every song. Reyli Barba also has credit in this album as co-writer on "UN BUEN DIA", which is one of the strongest songs in the album.
The direction of this album is concentrated on ballads and hard ballads including the openning track "POR UN MOMENTO" (Just for a while), "MIRAME" (Look at me). The first single was "SOY SOLO UN SECRETO" (I'm just a secret) which was an international hit that made it to #3 on Billborad's Latin Chart. Similar songs to this one are "DIOSA" (Goddess) and "TODO" (Everything). This is a new track, has nothing to do with the song with same tittle from her album "Soy" (I don't understand how they use the same name for two different tracks). Finally some of the softest songs are "QUIERO SER" (I wanna be), "BELLISIMA" (So beautiful) and the second single that comes in two versions, "HASTA EL FINAL" ('til the end). In the case of this song, in my opinion, track 3's version is much better than the version on track 12.
Give this album a try, is very good. Every song is good, Alejandra's performance on each word in the album is simply flawless, is a very good album and I think that there isn't much to comment about Alejandra, she is very talented and her voice is just fantastic.
The only negative thing about this album, is that "includes" an access to a website with speacial features from Alejandra, but some months have passed sience I got the cd and there's still no access. But it doesn't bother actually because the cd is worth every Dollar.

Vengo comprando los cd's de Alejandra desde principios de los 90's, y por màs que todos me parecen muy buenos. He empezado a disfrutar màs de Alejandra desde hace unos años, ya que su voz es mas fuerte y su mùsica ha llegado a un punto en el que puede ser rockera sin gritar mucho.
La producciòn del disco cuenta con muy buenos musicos italianos (el disco se grabò en Italia) y Alejandra ha sido co-productora y ha co-escrito casi todas las canciones. Reyli Braba tambìen aparece en los crèditos por co-escribir la cancion "UN BUEN DIA". Que es una de las canciones màs fuertes del disco. "FUERZA" està màs cargado de baladas y baladas fuertes. Entre las baladas estàn canciones como "NADA ES COMO ES" y "BELLISIMA". De las fuertes estàn canciones como "TODO" (esta canciòn no tiene nada que ver con la canciòn de su disco "SOY". Es una canciòn totalmente diferente), "DIOSA" y el primer single que fue un èxito en varios paises (en Estados Unidos llego a la casilla #3 de Billboard). Lo màs fuerte que se puede encontrar en este disco, es la canciòn de Reyli. Y Finalmente, lo que llamo baladas fuertes, estàn "MIRAME" y "HASTA EL FINAL" que yo creo que es tal vez la mejor canciòn del disco.
El disco en general està muy bien, Alejandra da todo de si en cada canciòn, las letras en muy bien y bueno que màs puedo decir?. Alejandra es una gran cantante.
Lo ùnico negativo que puedo comentar de este cd, es que tiene una opciòn de acceso a un website de Alejandra pero ya tengo el cd hace meses y aùn no puedo entrar, sale un mensaje que se esta creando la web. En realidad no importa mucho porque el disco vale cada Dòlar.

4.0 out of 5 stars much better than the last one., January 7, 2008

As a Alejandra's fan, I have to say that cd is "good".but,much better than "indeleble",another good attempt to create good music.

Songs I like:

"solo un secreto".-Good tune, good lyrics and her voice is really nice in this song.
"Hasta el final".- good ballad with her personal experience.
"Todo".- to me, the best song in the album.I think this song should be the next single.
"Un buen dia".- when I Heard the song ,I knew the composer was Reyli Barba.Although alejandra's voice is so 'rasp out"in the chorus of the song.it is one of my favorites.
" Diosa".-I want to see Alejandra singing live this song!!!!!.

I wonder,if Alejandra will return with her old producer( J.R. Florez, Felissati)I really miss the great songs with the style of Rosas rojas,Reina de corazones . Di que si di que no,ETC....Besides. too many songs dedicated to Her daughter? umh!!

And a very nice photo cover!!!!!!

A poor effort from an artist who has given us some great music. No outstanding tracks and all sounding much the same.
