Pafuera Telaranas, the debut disc from Spanish singer Bebe, spins a hypnotic web of alternately moody and joyous pop treats. The album doesn't immediately catch fire after initial listens, but Bebe's playful delivery and thoughtful lyrics ultimaltey shine through. They make Pafuera Telaranas an enjoyable alternative to so many of Latin pop's kewpie-doll cuties. The album flirts with ska rhythms ("Ska de la Tierra"), hushed balladry (the mournful "Cuidandote") and experimental a capella interludes ("Razones"). Bebe's chirpy vocals anchor each song, a mix of Juleta Venegas' weary sensuality and Gwen Stefani's streetwise sweetness. Bebe even seems to channel Ashlee Simpson's raspy rock flavor during "Con Mis Manos"--although the acclaimed singer would likely frown on the comparison. "Malo," a harrowing, flamenco-flavored tale of domestic abuse, is the album's emotional centerpoint. It builds to an impressive climax. Equally enjoyable, but alternately joyous, is "Siete Horas," a wistful countdown to a lovers' meeting stuffed with DJ scratches and rapid-fire vocal tricks. Bebe proves adept at adapting herself to diverse themes and styles, and it makes Pafuera Telaranas an inspired pop treat. --Joey Guerra

5.0 out of 5 stars Transcends age, language, culture, definition, and explanation!, July 8, 2006

By	Cynthia Van Maanen (Upstate New York) - See all my reviews

I had purchased a compilation album that included Siempre Me Quedara, and I liked the song when I first heard it, but I didn't pay much attention to it. Then I found myself singing it all the time, and needing to listen to it first every time I got in the car.

Becasue of that, I bought Bebe's album and I am sooooo glad I did!! That was months ago, and I still listen to it all the time. Interestingly, a lot of the other songs grew on me the same way that Siempre Me Quedara did--I'll hear them and then not listen to them for a while, but then return to them later and love them so much! Just a few days ago, I rediscovered Men Senara which is my current favorite.

I've lent my CD to many of my friends, Spanish speakers and non-Spanish speakers alike, and everyone loves it! The lyrics are so beautiful that it's a shame if you can't understand them, but you can definitely still enjoy the music. Also, the friends I've lent it to range in age from 24 to 44, and their reactions were all similar. This is definitely not an album made for just one specific age group.

A quick note: Get this version of the album, rather than the other one you'll find on Amazon. The difference is that you get two extra songs on this one that don't appear on the original... I think that this one is the re-release for American audiences, but I could be way wrong on that. Que Nadie Me Levante la Voz is a great song that you won't find on the version with only 13 songs.

My only problem is that I want more!!! Please, Bebe! Release another album SOON!! :)

5.0 out of 5 stars This Album is Simply Brilliant!! Muy, January 27, 2007

By	Charles Curtis (Jackman, Maine) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've had this album for only a few days, have listened to it end to end maybe three times.. and all I can say, is that it's completely freakin' brilliant. Gypsy alternative folk rock, gently patinated with punk & flamenco. Singer-songwriter dance-pop. Simply sublime.

Dug up some bio info that'll I share (save you the google): Bebe- aka Nieves Rebolledo Vila - was born in Valencia Spain in 1978. Her parents are members of the Extremaduran folk group Surberina. So she grew up surrounded by music & musicians, and got into the music scene in Madrid as a teen. This is her first big album, though, and it's made her a star in the Latin music scene. She was nominated for five Latin Emmies for this, and the aforemention Malo was a huge international hit single.

She sounds a lot like Natalia LaFourcade (but with rather better pop hooks,) with Julieta Venegas' hipness.. Her lyrics and themes can be edgy and political. 'Malo,' her big hit (though not, by my lights, the best song on this album) is a bit of a bruiser.

And as for those titillating forbidden lyrics, they're all en Espanol folks, in keeping with the themes rather than gratuitous (at least to my sensiblities.) Put it this way: this isn't Too Live Kru or Muttly Crew or anything untarded & paleoanderthal like that. If you can handle, say, Alanis Morissette, this material won't annoy you.

[...]

But no mind.. this girl is class, she's tart & smart, a tad saucy bout the edges.

Summation: Lo Quiero Mucho. Dig it lots, and this is just the beginning. This is in the near vicinity of Simon & Garfunkel or James Taylor good. (In all seriousness, she's in that good: classic, catchy pop; interesting themes; musically thematically complex & varied, with good lyrics..) It will probably take at least a decade and a half of constant pummeling before I get sick of it. I look forward to the mauling.

Buy it. Pronto. Cinquo estrellas +++.
