I really love how she continues to expand her music and take it to different directions! She mixes flamenco, Spanish music, dance and pop so well! Very well done.

This is Olga Tanon's most recent release. It contains a nice mix of fast flamenco style dance music, techno sounding love songs and romantic pop ballads. The song "Tu Amor" is a techno-flamenco marvel. The lyrics are sooo passionate and the beat just grabs you and won't let go. I listen to it every morning. Olga has a fabulously powerful voice, but she can also bring out the emotions in the softest ballad. "Hielo Y Fuego" is also wonderful; the tempo changes and versatility of her band make this song unique. And of course, "La Magia del Ritmo" won't let you sit still. The final track, "Un Hombre Y Una Mujer" is a warm and romantic love song which really showcases Olga's rich smooth voice. I highly recommend this album although it has a different feel than her earlier Merengue albums. !Ay que lindo!

"Te Acordaras de Mi" is the absolute best Olga Tanon CD to date, and is definitley a merengue classic. Though it definitley is different from even her last release, "Llevame Contigo", it is a GREAT CD. "Tu Amor" is a wonderful song with some great mixing in it that was a great lead-off single. Olga's duet with Cristian Castro, "Escondidos", is a beautiful love song that shows just how strong Olga's voice really is. She shines in the songs "Hielo Y Fuego", "La Magia del Ritmo", and "El Nino", shows how to pull of a rap beat in "Como Pude Haber Vivido Sin Ti", does an Spanish take on an English song in "Voy a Sacarte de mi Mente", and sings of two star-crossed lovers in "Un Hombre Y Una Mujer". But my personal favorite on this album is the title track, a power ballad where Olga Tanon really shines. Though this album doesn't have all the merengue feel and spirit to it, and totally shows that you really can outdo yourself in every way. A+!

Known for her merengue, Olga proves with this pop CD that she can succeed in any musical style. There are twelve songs on here that alternate between more danceable numbers and ballads. The opening track, "Tu Amor" has a driving flamenco beat, and is the definite standout. Her voice is beautiful, and her style is hard to resist. This is truly one of the best Latin-pop CD's I own and would recommend.

this is one of olga's best albums. She mixes some pop and flamenco in the song " Tu Amor ". She is also shows off her great voice in " hielo y fuego". In every song their is great songs. This album is the best! You won't be disappointed!

I hadn't really heard Olga before I received this album as a gift. All I knew was that she was a huge hit in Puerto Rico as well as the international scene. I wasn't sure what to expect. Unfortunately, this is one of the more uneven CDs of "Musica Latina" that I have in my collection.

Though, Olga Tañón has a powerful voice and she definitely isn't shy about belting it out, there are times where a little goes a LONG way! On some of the tracks, I wanted to yell "Ya! Basta!" (Enough, already!) When she tries to be expressive it almost comes out as hollow as a cat screaming on a hot tin roof. ("Cómo Pude Haber Vivido Sin Ti," "Diálogo Mudo," "Voy a Sacarte De Mi Mente") Other tracks are catchy mostly because of the arrangements and the catchy fusion of merengue and latin pop ("Tu Amor," "Hielo y Fuego"). This album is not for all tastes and is, in my opinion, far too poppy! I prefer music with more "sabor" (the sound of the timbales, the heartbeat of the drum, son montuno, salsa) to the canned sound of more Anglo rhythms. This is not for all tastes. Sorry, Olga!

I bought this on the strength of Tu Amor. Unfortunately that is the only song holding this album's head above water, and it's not enough. The rest is pure filler, ranging from badly written ballads about love, to other badly written ballads about love--topped off with a bizzare rendition of King Of Wishful Thinking, a hokey '80s song which spanish manages to make even hokier.

DIFFERENT SOUND OF THE ULTIMATE OLGA TANON--A GREAT DIVA FROM P.RICO..TU AMOR(FLAMENCO POP SOUND)ESCONDIDOS (DUET WITH CRISTIAN)GREAT BALLAD..OVERALL,A GOOD CD BY OLGA..ALSO RECOMMEND,MUJER DE FUEGO & EXITOS Y MAS(HER BEST)

Olga Tanon proves that she has the voice, talent, etc. to , after years of being the best selling female latin dance artist, reign in the pop charts.

This album is really great. Olga Tanon is an incredible singer and there are great tracks on the cd that just make me want to dance. I really recommend this album that likes the sound of latin music. The flamenco guitars are great.
