4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Album But...., November 28, 2007

By	Ricardo Vega "Rickyric" (Los Angles, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

First of all, I would like to add to what the first comment stated. Olga was indeed "influenced" actually more like "forced" by Univision records to make this album. She said it herself in an interview. She also said that she has never been a fan of "cover" albums. And I agree with the fact that ever since she started with Univision records, her albums haven't quite been the same. Not bad, but just not as consistently fantastic like her others albums with Sony Discos and especially with WEA Latina. She's not the only one suffering from Univision's awful way of handling their artists. La India and Gloria Trevi are other ones. In India's case, her album with Univision records was a complete disaster... the music was awful and her image on the album (Bride of Frankenstein anyone???)... Anyhow, back to this album. Olga's voice sounds AWESOME. I noticed that she hit certain high notes that I've never heard her hit before. The merengues on the this album are actually quite GOOD. Manuel Tejada and Ceferino Caban did a fantastic job doing the merengue musical arrangements. The reason why I didn't give this album 5 stars is because of the song selections. 4 versions of "Hoy Quiero Confesarme"???? This is too much. 3 may have been passable. But I don't see the point to doing a merengue version and then adding a cumbia merengue version.... AWFUL!! They could have added more different songs instead. The ideal way of having done this album would have been to do a DOUBLE ALBUM. One disc would have been all BALLADS with about 10 to 11 songs... and the second disc would have been the merengue/tropical (more merengue though!!!) versions of the same 10 or 11 songs!!! Oh well!!! Hats off to Olga, but SHAME ON YOU Univision records!!!!

3.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE OLGA... But don't like this album (Please sing new songs!), November 27, 2007

By	Jaime J. Martinez "Jamabo" (Rockville, MD) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've been an Olga fan for the last 12 years. I've bought every album she ever put out and loved them to death. When it comes to this one, I can't get the hang of it. Why did she have to go re-do other peoples songs. Go get your own songs! I really thing Univision must have pushed her to put this crap out. I really would love for her to go back to WEA Latina. Her albums with WEA were always good. I'll still be her biggest fan ever, but I'm really mad with this album. Olga puts an amazing voice to all the songs but not satisfied with the musical arrangements. Olga please make an album with new songs next time. Even better if its merengue & bachata. BTW... Why do we need to see 4 versions of the same songs. Cut it out! We know you can sing all these styles but we don't want to hear one song all over again (taking space on CD that could have different songs added to it).
