5.0 out of 5 stars Her best so far, June 16, 2006

This review is from: Julieta Venegas: Limon y Sal (Audio CD)

I love this CD! I've been a fan of Julieta Venegas ever since I first heard to "Aqui" back in '98 after listening to it at Borders. Her following CDs, "Si" and "Bueninvento," didn't appeal to me a much, but "Limon y sal" is heart-breakingly beautiful. Ms. Venegas has matured, both personally and musically, and "Lemon y sal" deserves a much wider audience than Ms. Venegas has enjoyed thus far north of the Mexican border. Music stores will classify this as "world music," but it is really pure pop at its best, regardless of language. The song "De que me sirve" is just plain beautiful, and you don't need to understand Spanish to get it. "Donde sea" rocks more like the music on her earlier CDs, but it is far more refined. There are no losers on "Limon y sal"; it is excellent throughout. Julieta's music has never been the throw-away pop of singers like, say, Shakira. It is timeless and, like her earlier "Aqui," will hold up over the years to repeated listening. Even without the bonus DVD, this CD is well worth the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful!!!, July 15, 2007

This review is from: Julieta Venegas: Limon y Sal (Audio CD)

I've purchased a LOT of music in the past year and Limon y Sal is my favorite of them all. I have Julieta's other CDs and this is her best. There isn't a single song on Limon y Sal that I don't like. Not many albums are good from top to bottom and Julieta shows off her range and charming personality on this CD more than on her others. Julieta has an amazing voice and a slightly quirky quality that I can't explain. This album is good even if you don't understand Spanish. The music holds up on its own. I recommend that fans get the dual disc version, with the behind the scenes footage of the recording process and the Me Voy video. I wish that the DVD side included the videos for Eres Para Mi and, well.....Limon y Sal (Duh!) as those are quite enjoyable videos, but you can't have everything, I guess.

5.0 out of 5 stars EN ASCENSO CONSTANTE!!!, June 15, 2006

This review is from: Julieta Venegas: Limon y Sal (Audio CD)

Julieta no solo se reinventa y sigue su ascenso....sino que deja en claro que su gusto musical, vá más allá de buscar un éxito musical...Su anterior disco "SI" , dejó en claro que puede orbitar en géneros más ligeros, sin pretensiones pero con profundidades interesantes..!! Esta nueva entrega, ademas de estar bien producida, da la impresion de ser la continuacion de su anterior trabajo...y esto, en vez de repetirse, la hace crecer como artista...Definitvamente, un disco memorable, y sin lugar a dudas, un CD que llegará a ser un clásico!!!
