Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

What's a Latin diva to do after mediocre success in the English-language market and the threat of alienation from Spanish-speaking fans? Remind everyone what made her so fabulous in the first place. Thalia's Greatest Hits collects some of her biggest singles and videos together in one lush package. It's an excellent memory book of the Mexican superstar's diverse sounds, styles, and attitudes. Thalia's flirty personality has always threatened to overshadow her musical talent, and this collection strikes a precarious balance between the singer's visual and musical personas. Excellent tracks such as "Piel Morena," "Amor a la Mexicana," and "Arrasando" highlight Thalia's ability to push past her musical limitations when supported by the right musicians and producers. On the flip side, videos for "Gracias a Dios," "A Quien le Importa," and "I Want You" (a modest English-language hit) find the singer in identity crisis, traipsing through a barrage of clichéd video-vixen personas. There's no denying, however, that Thalia soars when the mix is just right, most notably on the ballads "Entre el Mar y Una Estrella," "No Me Ensenaste," and "Cerca de Ti." Now if she could only get the recipe right in English. --Joey Guerra

5.0 out of 5 stars A great album!, February 13, 2004

This review is from: Greatest Hits" [Limited Edition w/ Bonus DVD] (Audio CD)

"Thalia's Greatest Hits" shows all Thalia's facets in her (expressive) last 10 years in Emi Music company.
With sixteen great hits, the album bring songs such: "Piel Morena", "Maria La Del Barrio", "Amor A La Mexicana", "Arrasando" and "Mujer Latina", these ones essential for anybody (latin people) and especially to latin music fans.
The inevitable crossover appear, as well, through songs like: "Regresa A Mi", "Toda La Felicidad" and "Me Pones Sexy" (spanish version of biggest Thalia's hit to date: "I Want You").
Unfortunately, songs: "Por Amor", "Amandote", "Quiero Hacerte El Amor", ballads such "Rosas", "Dicen Por Ahí", "Lagrimas" and her past hits (from Universal Age) don't appear in this material.
However, album come with two new EXCELLENT songs: "Cuando Tu Me Tocas" (Emilio Estefan Jr. writer and producer) and "Accion Y Reaccion" (Wrote by Thalia and Produced by Estefano).
Thalia has a beautiful and sweat voice and talent a lot, buy it...you definitely won't regret!

3.0 out of 5 stars great dvd..., February 16, 2004

This review is from: Greatest Hits" [Limited Edition w/ Bonus DVD] (Audio CD)

but the cd isn't all that... that's why i just give this 3 stars. i had never seen any of thalia's videos before except for "piel morena" - so the dvd is the main reason i wanted this - and the dvd by itself was worth the 15.99 i paid for it - the cd however... thalia has had an over ten year career, and her "greatest hits" cd only has 10 songs on it... why? it's lacking "tu y yo", "marimar", the remixed and far superior version of "piel morena" and so many others - and it's kinda weird since the cd only runs a bit over 40 minutes long - so there is at least room for maybe 8 more tracks on the disc. it would be nice if they would have just released the dvd by itself :-D
