Anyone who listens to this albulm can definently feel every word he sings. Secada's "Heart, Soul, and a Voice" brings the same stamina as his debut albulm, "Jon Secada". My personal favourites on "Heart, Soul, and A Voice" is the poignant "If You Go", "Mental Picture", and the breakdown ballad, "Eyes of A Fool". I find the whole albulm to be very splendid. Even the Spanish translations of "If You Go"("Se Te Vas")and "Take Me"("Tuyo") are absoultely spectacular. There is not one bad song. This is an albulm you will absolutely cherish over time. For an albulm reaching it's 10th birthday of being released, I have never grown tired of listening to this beautiful man's voice. I truly recommend this albulm to any music lover out there who appreciates amazing talent. You will absolutely love it. I've been a fan since 1992, when I was only 6 years old. Now I am going on 18 years old in December, and I have greatly appreciated the talent from Jon Secada. I want to share the appreciation I have for this man onto you all.

Beautiful songs, what a mind soothing voice and let's face it folks, Jon Secada is totally hot! This is a beautiful CD, and although I do not speak Spanish, the few songs that were in spanish were wonderful none the less. I never hear about Mr. Secada anymore, which is a shame, he gave us a great gift. Perhaps someday he might bless us again with a new albulm, until then enjoy this one!! I have this CD in my truck, on my computer, and in the CD player!

I believe ``Heart, Soul & a Voice'' is just about Jon Secada's best album. This album truly and effectively displays Jon's vocal dynamic and range and the mere fact that he studied Jazz vocals at university. I think the thing that makes this album special is that it is by no means ordinary pop or latin pop. It incorporates jazz, latin, blues, pop and rock and of course, great song writing, all in one go. I find myself listening to this album over and over, and never ever get bored. Jon, please continue to bring some of this ``Heart, Soul & a Voice'' quality to your music.

This is by far Jon's best album. After listening to the new album Better Part of Me, I found myself going back to this album to remind me of what Jon is all about. Every track on this album is Jon, as the title is appropriately labelled! I can definately understand why the average pop music fan would not like every song in this album, however, its not meant for everyone and Jon Secada is not meant for everyone and anyone. He is an acquired taste. This is the complete opposite of my review for Better Part of Me. This album is what Jon is all about.

Jon Secada's first album broke many barriers in pop,this second album although it does not have the intense emotion like the first but the tracks are great. There is not a song here I don't like but it's just not as great as the first. Either way I like his style and gotpeople to back me up on that.

This is Jon's second CD and while trying to get the American contemporary music consumers to love his music he may have tried just a little too hard. His vocals are rich, even though some of the lyrics may be lacking, but this still doesn't overshadow this wonderful CD which is a great addition to any collection.

I remember being so excited to buy and hear this album. Although after hearing this album I was sorely disappointed. This album was too fake and chorusy lacking the richness of true soul. It took me all my power not to take it back to the store. Unfortunately for me I couldn't find the reciept.

This is one of the best album my a male vocalist I have ever heard! I love all the songs on the CD. Those weak male "pop" singers can't possibly compare to Jon's vocal and personality prowess. The music romantic, sentimental and expressive. Seriously, if you don't have the album, you don't know what you are missing!

For Jon secada, he remains as one of those Where Are They Now? casualties leftover from VH1. It is just sad that he hasn't released anything new to top Heart, Soul & A Voice. Although my mother has this record and I don't, I still listen to a lot of songs on this record including Mental Picture, and If You Go. It is a strong record, from somebody who sang backup for Gloria Estefan. Hopefully, somebody with a voice like that should try to comeback all the way to the top, but I doubt it will happen.

"Don't be Silly" es el titulo de un de las canciones y eso debe de ser el aviso para la gente que esta pensando en comprar este disco.Este vato canta un poquito mejor en Ingles y le sirve bien pero no vale la pena. Es como un Latino Michael Bolton. Si te gusta su mirada hay bastante fotos de Secada adentro con esa mirada estupido a lo lado como decir "Mirame soy como un modelo de ropa, te gusta?" En serio la musica es mas o menos y para mi hay muchos mas artistas de mejor calidad. Es la musica de apretar tu mujer y bailar con ella, dar le un besito en el pezquezo y a ver donde llega la noche, bueno, si no vomita en escuchar las canciones. Los arreglos son buenos como es producido por Emilio Estefan Jr y tiene claridad el disco, claramente malo. Es claramente mejor que el malisimo disco del mismo ano "Si Te Vas." Hay algunos canciones que son mas o menos , no quiero decir buenos pero mejor, como "If You Go." La mayoria de canciones son malisimos y este disco es para collectar polvo. Si de veras lo quires escribame y despues de quitar le el polvo te lo mando!! Que lastima represenatacion de la musica Latina.
