This Girl's Voice Cries out for mainstream success!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Llegar a Ti (Audio CD)
I love Jaci Velasquez. I decided to buy this CD because I've heard of her from a tv commerical and heard her somewhere else I can't recall. I was not disappointed. Her music and voice is so incredible. I am either dancing to the tunes of Con tu amor, Manantial de Caricias, or Junto a mi, OR I am moved by the beatiful melodies of Un Lugar Celestial, Solo Tu, De Creer En Ti (the best) or Dentro esta tu voz (the second best). I am not a listener of Christian music but I'm a huge fan of great voices and positive messages. Jaci Velasquez emcompasses both. Her voice rivals the Mariahs, Celines, and Whitneys of the world. I would love to see her get mainstream noteriety but I'm sure most of you believe a lot of her appeal is that she is not a mainstream singer. Still how long can a girl with this kind of voice go unnoticed? I found her. She's a revelation. This is my second Spanish language album after Selena's Dreaming of you. Dare I say it - This girl is better than Selena! No disrespect to the tejano superstar. All I can say is YOU GO GIRL!

Latin Music With A Meaningful Twist: Jaci Velasquez!,
By LeRoy Walker-Sandoval "Buck" (Jerome, ID USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Llegar a Ti (Audio CD)
I have always been a fan of Latin music, well, certain artists like Selena, Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony, Christina Aguilera, Enrique Iglesias, Jon Secada, and Gloria Estefan. However, none of them (no offense) can match up to the versatility and voice of Jaci Velasquez. Although LLEGAR A TI fits into the Latin genre, because of some of the music, it has a more meaningful twist than the rest of the above. Jaci proves to herself and all her loved ones that she has a purpose in doing in what she does. That purpose is to reach out to believers and unbelievers alike through witnessing for Christ, by music.Her voice is outstanding on this CD! My all-time favorite song of hers is on it: the title track! The Spanish versions of "Un Lugar Celestial (A Heavenly Place)", "Look At What Love Has Done", "God So Loved", "On My Knees", "Flower In The Rain", and "Little Voice Inside" are just as beautiful as the English versions. The originals are living proof that Jaci loves God, and she loves doing music! I pray that Jaci will continue to reach out to the Latin community with this "new" kind of Latin music in a very positive way, with both LLEGAR A TI and MI CORAZON! God bless you, sister Jaci!

BEAUTIFUL CD WITH BEAUTIFUL SONGS!,
By "jsweed" (Los Angeles, California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Llegar a Ti (Audio CD)
I've been an avid Jaci Velasquez fan ever since her Heavenly Place CD and I think this CD by far is the best. Although it is in Spanish, its songs have a great message! Don't listen to the reviews with people putting her "secular album" down. I disagree with them. This CD is VERY inspirational with the meaning and hope of Christ tied into it. Everyone knows that if you want to share the message of Jesus Christ with others, you can't expect them to understand hardcore Christian music. You can only plant the seed. Jaci does a fantastic job with this, and you won't be sorry with buying this CD! Great new songs, some translated old ones. Her voice has matured so much! She sounds even more beautiful!

Finally--Christian dance music in Spanish!,
By
This review is from: Llegar a Ti (Audio CD)
I was delighted to find some Christian Spanish dance music--although there is great praise and worship in Spanish, there has been a shortage of danceable Christian music. Jaci does a wonderful job! And best of all, her pronunciation sounds native! In my opinion, this is by far Jaci's best album. I wish that there were more songs on the album like "Con tu amor," but the softer ones are nice, too. If you like Latin pop music but wish that the lyrics were less suggestive, this is the CD for you!

New singer with great talent,
By A Customer
This review is from: Llegar a Ti (Audio CD)
I heard the song "Llegar a ti" on the radio and really fell in love with it. It's MUCH better now that I have the cd. I thought I was only going to get one good song from this cd - but I was wrong. I hadn't heard of Jaci before, but when I heard some of the other songs on the cd, she quickly became a favorite for me. I've never been into Christian music, and I've never liked Salsa either, with Jaci's cd I enjoyed both categories. I haven't heard any of her english cds, but songs have more emotion, more feeling (Selena once said this also) in Spanish. I'm sure I will enjoy future releases from Jaci in Spanish. She's got great talent and I hope she continues to record in Spanish.

Jaci Just Keeps on Getting Better,
By Jacifan (canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Llegar a Ti (Audio CD)
In my opinion, she is a vocal prodigy who gets better with every project. When listening to this album, I focus on her voice. She has full control over the voice, and she is able to emotion with subtle tones. I don't even know spanish, but I love this album just because I love to listen to her voice. Great stuff.

Jaci at her Best,
By Ginni Tamez (Rowlett, Texas United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Llegar a Ti (Audio CD)
This album kicks off to a great start with "Con Tu Amor", an awesome song with a Latin feel. The high-quality songs continue with the soulful "Llegar a Ti" (the title track and, in my opinion, the best song on the album), translations of her English songs ("Un Lugar Celestial", "Al Mundo Dios Amo", "Como una Flor", etc.), and great new songs like "Junto a Mi" and "Solo Tu". This is definitely Jaci at her best--Milagro, while more modern and popular, just doesn't live up to the standard she set in Llegar a Ti. I would recommend this album even if you don't speak Spanish. (Actually, it's a good way to learn it!)

JACI HAS TALENT!,
By Ariel (CALI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Llegar a Ti (Audio CD)
I HAD NEVER REALLY HEARD OF JACI UNTIL QUITE RECENTLY WHEN MY COUSIN SHARED THIS CD WITH ME TELLING ME SHE WAS GREAT. I LISTENED TO IT AND COULD NOT HELP BUT AGREE WITH HER, JACI HAS A LOT OF TALENT AND FLEXIBLE VOCAL ABILITY. I LOVE THE LYRICS AND FOUND MANY OF HER SONGS TO BE QUITE INSPIRING. I ONLY WISH I WOULD HAVE HEARD HER SOONER. I DEFINATELY WANT TO LOOK UP HER EARLIER ALBUMS, AND KNOW THAT I'LL ENJOY THEM JUST AS MUCH. THIS ALBUM DEFINATELY MADE ME A FAN!

Excellent,
By A Customer
This review is from: Llegar a Ti (Audio CD)
Jaci Velasquez, is no doubt a great singer. Her CD lets you enjoy from dancing to romantic music, not to mention christian lyrics. This CD is truly one I could hear from start to finish without skipping songs, as I usually do. Excellent work! She definitely has talent.

Beautiful harmony to God,
By A Customer
This review is from: Llegar a Ti (Audio CD)
Jaci V. has been a great inspiration in Heaven's eyes. She has let God use her in a magnificent way. Jaci has given her all and has showed the world her heart, even though she doesn't think so. God has used her to touch hearts that are broken, destroyed, anguished, or in pain. With her music she has brought pieces of other hearts together. Thankyou Jaci. Keep going on strong. Que Dios te bendiga. Y que tus suenos se hagan realidad. Nunca mires hacia tras, siempre ten tu mirada hacia el frente. Hacia DIOS! Que Dios te bendiga.
