4.0 out of 5 stars Back to basics, November 15, 2006

By	Raul A. Suarez Giacoman "Alex G" (Mc Allen, Texas United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

After a couple live albums (Mi vida con ellas 1 & 2) and a quite interesting classical experiment (Moda y Pueblo) that featured many of his most popular songs, Fito returns with a brand new album in 2006.

At a first listen the album may sound familiar, and in a couple cases there are songs that are reminiscent of other songs presented in previous albums, take for instance the opening theme `El mundo cabe en una cancion' which may sound as a fast version of `Abre' from the homonym album.

This is definitely a back to basics for Paez, his last studio album `Naturaleza Sangre' was a little bit more aggressive than usual and it was great and different in many ways. `El mundo cabe en una cancion' presents 12 songs that are filled with his influences, Paez sounds optimistic again and the lyrics are as great as in any other Paez album. `Rollinga o Miranda girl' is a powerful song with guitar riffs that remind us that Paez is a rocker before anything. `Fue por amor; is another excellent theme that in the beginning sounds as the opening music of `El salmon' of Andres Calamaro. `Sargent Maravilla' will definitely remind you of one of the greatest influences Paez has, all the music, chorus and themes have a unique Beatle sound spiced with Paez' own style.

Listen to the excellent single `Eso que llevas ahi' and you will get an idea of the whole album, both the music and the lyrics are great. If you like this song I am sure you'll enjoy the album.

Is this album better than the last one? Hard to tell, when `Naturaleza Sangre' was released Paez was going through several things on his life, his recent break up with Cecilia Rot and a new found love and all those issues were reflected in the songs of the album. The same thing happens with this new album but now Paez seems to be in a better moment of his life, he sounds great as always but more optimistic in his lyrics. The last song `Caminando por Rosario' is a great ballad that was wisely selected to close another great album that has been added to his discography. After waiting 3 years for new material this album will not disappoint you.

2.0 out of 5 stars Fito suena demasiado a Fito, April 22, 2009

By	Pablo M. Coronel "titrisol" (Rotterdam / Quito / etc) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Despues de un album evolutivo (Naturaleza Sangre), este suena demasiado a Fito Paez. Debe satisfacer a los fans que le piden mas de lo mismo, no algo mejor. Las canciones son bien elaboradas, con letras llenas de hermosos versos y figuras literarias, musica con arreglos perfectos, pero con el sabor añejo del amor desues del amor y circo beat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buena musica, buen disco... cumple su cometido..., December 22, 2006

By	pzicotico "pzicotico" (Lima, Peru) - See all my reviews

En este ultimo disco, Fito suena mas que nunca a Fito. Este disco es un juego de sonidos y estilos bastante bueno..... Parecería una suerte de recopilatorio pero no de canciones sino de estilos, estilos propios. Este disco trae reminiscencias fuertes de grandes obras anteriores como Circo Beat, el Amor Después del Amor, y otras mas recientes como Abre o Naturaleza Sangre. Tal vez eso puede que le quite un poco de "novedad" al disco, sin embargo, la calidad de las canciones es lo suficientemente buena (en letra y musica) como para no quedarse en un simple remake de lo ya hecho, pues definitivamente se puede decir que NO es mas de lo mismo. Del disco las rolas imperdibles e increibles, "El mundo en una canción", "Rollinga o Miranda girl" cancion bien rockanrollera con una letra medio nostalgica (marca registrada de Fito) definitivamente la mejor, "Eso que llevas ahí" e "intermezzo" magistral version en solo de piano con guitarra de "Rollinga o miranda girl". Con esta rola uno se pregunta, por que Fito no hace un disco en sólo de piano de sus mejores canciones!!! El resto de canciones son buenas y cumplen con su cometido. Gran disco, gran musico.... grande Fito.
