5.0 out of 5 stars Milgaro: One Of The Best Albums Ever!, February 1, 2004

Wow!!!!! This is one of the most beautiful CDs I have heard in a long time! This is not your typical Latin album that you are hearing, guys. It does have the mix of Spanish guitars, dance, pop, ballads, and tons more. It is a very beautiful collection full of clean, unconditional love, plus some praise and worship of God, among other topics.

Jaci has proven herself again, with a deep maturity to her voice, with a lot of emotive versatility. The songs she picked for this particular album are all so outstanding!

1. "En El Centro De Mi Corazon": This is a great song to introduce the rest of the CD, because it starts out very soft, as an intro, and then...BANG! Jaci hits it again!
2. "No Hace Falta Un Hombre": This is the Spanish hit of her single, "I Don't Need A Man" from the movie, CHASING PAPI. This is a cool song. Jaci wrote both versions.
3. "Milagro": The title track, which is so inspiring, because it reminds me of her hit single "Llegar A Ti" (My all-time favorite song of hers)! Awesome!
4. "Un Trocito De Cielo": A good song to dance to! Good beat, great rhythm!
5. "Perdida Sin Ti": This song is cool, 'cause it has this edgy rock sound to it.
6. "Eres Tan Grande": This song is also neat, because it has sort of an R&B sound, only it has its own thing about it as well.
7. "A Un Paso De Mi Amor": I absolutely LOVE this song!! Her voice is just beautiful on it! I love singing it,'cause it gives me a feeling of knowing God's presence is truly here! The Spanish version of "Just A Prayer Away".
8. "Me Valga Dios": I love the intro music to this song. Jaci sings this song with a delightful emotion!
9. "Es Amor": I love this one as well! It's simple, but very pretty!
10. "A Tu Lado Es Mi Lugar": This is the Spanish version of Jaci's "Where I Belong" from UNSPOKEN. I really like both versions; Jaci co-wrote them as well!
11. "Mi Vida No Es Nada Sin Ti": This is a really beautiful song, co-written by another all-time fave of mine, Gloria Estefan! I believe it's the Spanish version of her hit, "Can't Stay Away From You." Great job, Jaci!

Jaci, you did it again! Congrats, and may your faith in Christ remains undying all your days! Plus your music!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best of Jaci's Spanish CDs, August 4, 2004

This by far Jaci's greatest Spanish album and even compared to her english cds this is still one of my favorites.
Milagro & Jaci Velasquez (Self titled) are the best. Her CD unspoken was'nt very good, but this camp out the same year and this was really good. I hope her fall release (Of 2004) will be as good as Milagro! :D

4.0 out of 5 stars Her Best Latin Record so far...& a some surprises, September 4, 2003

I was concerned at how tough a job it would be for Jaci Velasquez to top her last "Mi Corazon", but this cd has some great surprises. It is clear that she has matured since her last projects:
She is not only tackling important emotions but her voice at certain times has incredible bravado ("A un Paso de Tu Amor") which had yet to be experienced as passionately and outstandingly in past projects. These songs seem to showcase her vocal abilities/control better than any other...Her voice knows when to shy way and when to break through. It is evident that she has pushed her voice creatively to new limits. Only one track (Me Valga Dios) seems a bit of a mismatch (in style) but all in all the album is one of the best of the year in latin pop.

She diligently makes it clear that she's many things: vulnerable, strong, questioning, assured...It is a great/brave for a Christian artist these days to express her faith and feel confident enough to reflect on and celebrate love (pure love) in parallel markets.

Must listen to:
* Moving confessional : "A Tu Lado es Mi Lugar"
* Rougher electro-rock texture of "Perdida Sin Ti"
* Soft vulnerability of "Es Amor"

BEST SURPRISE: Last Track: "Mi Vida no es Nada Sin Ti".
This is an INCREDIBLE spanish cover of Gloria Estefan's "Can't Stay Away from You". She holds her own here.
I recommend it! (HIghly)
