He moved to Mexico City for the opportunities that the city afforded and secured a deal with Polygram for the release of his first album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Extraordinaio.No te cansas de escucharlo,melodia y letras., September 9, 1999
By A Customer
Este CD no es nuevo, pero a quien no lo tenga, que lo adquiera, solo se arrepentira del tiempo que tardo sin tenerlo, asi de bueno es, Arjona logro algo que hasta ese entonces no poseia, armonia y melodia,pues las letras siempre han sido penetrantes, imposible ignorarlas, mas aun olvidarlas, con sus letras, sus ideas y conceptos y la manera que tiene de exponerlos era y es acreedor de la admiracion aun de aquellos que se sintieran atacados,(chicos plasticos,)Conozco varios que les encanta. Libre" es una de mis favoritas, el estribillo suena muy melodioso y a la vez triste, sientes como si de verdad lo estuviera viviendo por el sentimiento que pone al cantarlo, la rebeldia que le caracteriza esta de manifiesto en"me estan j... la vida" y en todo el CD. "Realmente no estoy solo" es un poema hecho cancion, bellisima poesia, matizada con el fondo de piano,exquisito. a veces me pregunto, quien se fue de su vida?, quien le abandono y tras mucho tiempo de ausencia reecontro "Tarde"? Sera a la misma persona a quien le pregunta "Te acuerdas de mi?" O acaso fueron distintas las personas y diferentes abandonos. Es una joya musical, si algun dia pudiera hablarle le preguntaria si es suya la cancion "Ay amor" o es de Victor Manuel.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best CD I ever heard, March 30, 2003
By Andrea García "Tot's" (América, Argentina) - See all my reviews
This is an excellent CD!. When I heard this CD I couldn't believe that is was so good and interesting!!.
I not only liked Arjona's voice, but also, what the songs said.

If I had to say which is my favourite songs, it would be either HISTORIAS DE TAXI, or SI YO FUERA, or REALMENTE NO ESTOY TAN SOLO or LA NOCHE TE TRAE SORPRESAS (yes, I know, I should choose only one, but it is so difficult!!!).....but CASA DE LOCOS and HISTORIAS DEL PORTERO are excellent too.

I loved Arjona's songs but I only have one CD so far: "Historias". Anyway, I think that is the best one.
Please tell my what YOU think about this genious of music. I'd love to discuss that with the man, woman, girl or boy that is reading this now.
I can't believe that only recently (in December), I discovered Ricardo Arjona's songs. Before that, I had heard one or two of his songs, but not all the CD.
I recommended this CD...once you hear it, the only thing that you are going to complain about is that you didn't hear before!.
