4.0 out of 5 stars A Better Ballad Than You Expected, April 5, 2000

This review is from: Private Emotion Feat. Meja (Audio CD)

The fourth release from Ricky Martin's debut English album is the best release thus far. It displays his talents more than the radio-friendly Livin' La Vida Loca and Shake Your Bon Bon, and the sappy She's All I Ever Had. It also captures the raw, realistic passion that is more apparent in the ballads on his previous 2 Spanish language albums ("A Medido Vivir" and the Grammy-winning "Vuelve").

"Private Emotion" is a ballad wrought with emotion and poetic lyrics. It is one of the most adult love songs on the radio right now, which is cluttered with the teenage love troubles of Jessica Simpson, Britney Spears, the Backstreet Boys and the lot. Meja's voice compliments Ricky's as they both truly sound like pained lovers. Buying this single will be money well spent, and prove to any doubters that with good material Martin will be one of the premiere U.S. pop singers of the next decade.

5.0 out of 5 stars Artistic, Passionate, Lovely..., April 29, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Private Emotion (Audio CD)

This song may well be the most amazing song ever written. I will disagree with the first reviewer; this song isn't an adult love song. It takes from the depths of the human soul and turns it into music that's essence is bittersweet, passionate emotion. It holds a beauty that no song on the radio could compare.

I am 13 years old. Admittedely, I am not your average teenybopper. I am a composer of both poetry and classical music. This song has touched my soul. I believe it can and will penetrate the hearts of not only adults, but of teenagers and even children. The soul belongs to everyone.
