Colombian singer-songwriter Juanes's second solo album is many things: poetic, lyrical, heartfelt, and intelligent. Ordinary, however, would not be among the list of adjectives. The humble title, Un Dia Normal, is more a description of the album's overall themes. It's a slicker and catchier collection than Juanes's politically minded 2000 album Fijate Bien, which earned seven Latin Grammy nominations and tons of critical attention. Un Dia Normal finds the former member of rock outfit Ekhymosis contemplating an array of inner emotions--primarily life, love, and loss--all anchored by Gustavo Santaolalla's tight, precise production work. "La Unica" is a sweet and tuneful love letter, while "Mala Gente" finds Juanes damning a cruel lover to hell--literally. "A Dios le Pido" is an intoxicating swirl of cumbia, reggae, and folk rhythms, but it's the bittersweet duet "Fotografia" that truly soars. Juanes's unassuming vocal style is the perfect complement to Canadian songbird Nelly Furtado's lilting soprano, creating a shining moment among an already impressive collection of gems. --Joey Guerra

Un Dia Normal - Juanes.......2007-02-19

BEST LATINO ALBUM EVER!!!!!! this is for everybody!
Dosent matter that it's not in english because everything sounds better in espanyol!!! The singer has won numeros latin grammy awards and a couple million fans can't go wrong either!
I absoutly love and recomend this cd!!!!

Love him :-().......2006-01-14

I've loved Juanes since about 2001 when I saw him on the Latin Grammy's. I love Latin music and he's amazing (and hot too). His voice is great and the music is terrific. Sure, I don't necessarily know what he's singing about, but it sounds romantic and beautiful. My favourite song is A Dios Le Pido. It's great. I've got a couple of his cds, but this is the best of his. For all Latin lovers, go get this.

Juggernaut.......2005-12-19

Juanes' chameleon like sophomore album is a lively, youthful, highly emotional, musical spree driven by masterful guitar and his evocative, soothing yet distinctly rock voice. It's one of the few albums of any musical artist I own that I can listen to straight through.

He has a slew of mellow latino pop ballads on here, immensely listenable and fresh, "Es Por Ti", "Una Dia Normal", "Dia Lejano". Perfect songs for unwinding or a leisurely drive somewhere.

Then you have his experimental batch, "La Unica" (dark until it changes halfway like a break of hopeful light through the clouds), "La Paga" (a cheeky slightly reggae-ish chant), "Luna" (bouncy and fun), "La Historia de Juan" (more on this later). Driving latin rock (and dance!) songs come in the shape of "La Noche" which sounds just like you'd imagine it to (although it should have an exclamation point at the end of the title), "Desde Que Despierto" a pop-rock song which is upbeat and happy.

The best songs on the album, or my favorites at least, are "Fotografia" a superb romantic pop duet with Nelly Furtado. It's just wonderful and slaps a smile on your face. Then you have his two anthems: "Mala Gente" a mischevious, rollicking, intense rocker regarding the fate of someone on their way to Hell. The second anthem, and what I think is one of Juanes' best songs, "A Dios Le Pido" a latin rocker which is intense, introspective, and a petition to God to listen to the plight of mankind and the singer's own heart. It starts with an explosion of drums and electric guitar and descends into a throbbing beat and Juanes' evocative almost chantlike belting. It's the musical equivalent to caffeine and deeply profound.

Although Spanish is incredibly musical language without translation, with translation you'll find Juanes writes remarkably poetic lyrics. Additionally, his messages are highly socially conscious. As an artist he uses his position to make a difference in the world and this is apparent in most of his songs. He speaks against violence and injustice. The throbbing driving ballad "La Historia De Juan" (another favorite of mine) is literally the story of a young man from the streets who is forgotten, but could have offered the world so much. Not only is it heartbreaking, but the rhythm and style of the song is peculiar and experimental. This is what makes Juanes one of the great musicians working today, he writes about things we don't often think about and uses an intense and immense world of musical styles as his tools, but always leaving his brand on it. His creativity, verstility -- and pathos -- set him apart.

A Real Winner.......2007-06-02

The title says it all. Every song is a winner and this CD contains the best.

Top quality Salsa in an unforgettable selection.......2007-05-25

As you can see, it would result unuseful any speech about the quality and historical significance of all these top songs and also about the artists (all of them stars around the world). Everyone is a must-have song in any collection of this kind of music. It is a lovely selection recorded with original sound and in a very danceable sequence. Very difficult to say what is better than other but the only song a little bit "out-of-focus" is "Lloraras" because of that it has been recorded live and the sound is not original (but excellently interpreted by Oscar de Leon, as well). Strongly recommended!!!

Outstanding!!!.......2007-04-25

This is a release that has got to be heard...a smoker front to back. Every single track included is among the best salsa ever, every single track is on the mark. All of the songs were top hits on their own and are now included here in one cd. The line-up alone is testament to it's dancing power. The songs in this cd have both Puerto Rico's grooving criollo style of salsa and New York's funkier, jazzy style. From New York City: Ruben Blades, Cheo Feliciano, Hector Lavoe; Jose 'El Canario' Alberto; Tito Puente/Tony Vega; Richie Ray; Larry Harlow; Ismael Miranda. From Puerto Rico, Marvin Santiago; Willie Rosario; Frankie Ruiz; Andy Montanez; Orquesta La Solucion; Tommy Olivencia. Lastly, from Venezuela the great, Oscar D'Leon makes an appearance to round out the cast to get "your feet a poppin and da booty hoppin". You owe to yourself to check this one out. Highly recommended.

DEFINITELY A MUST-HAVE!.......2006-06-22

This is one of the best salsa cd's. It has the best artists and the best songs all in one album, which is hard to find now days. Compared to other salsa cd's I have bought this is the most complete by far.....

Mi Sangre meets--and often exceeds--the glittering standards set by its predecessors. The album fuses the best elements of Juanes' previous works, Un Dia Normal and Fijate Bien, to create a collection that is exciting, energetic and thought-provoking. Lead-off single "Nada Valgo Sin Tu Amor" ("I'm Worthless Without Your Love") is a bittersweet mix of alternately hopeful and sad lyrics ("That's why I want your love, always strong in my mind/Even if we are far, or even if we are near, in the end") that could be a simple declaration of amor or a love letter from a war-time soldier. Social issues are highlighted throughout Mi Sangre, which finds Juanes directly addressing Colombian warfare. "What's happening in the world today," he asks amid the passionate rock rhythms of "Que Pasa," "that in all the dailies I read the same news of horror, lives that fall without reason?" Mi Sangre is a compulsive listen, with surprises at every turn. Juanes gets flirty during "Damelo," which finds him sizing up a potential lover; and "Para Tu Amor" is a swoon-inducing pop ballad that glitters with optimism. Producer Gustavo Santaolalla knows his way around the alt-rock world, having worked with Maldita Vecindad, Café Tacuba, Molotov, and Julieta Venegas. He co-produced Jaunes' previous albums, and the pair's synergy is nothing short of exceptional. "Tu Guardian," the album closer, is a sweet lullaby that seems tailor-made for Jaunes' eight-month-old daughter, Luna. It's here that Juanes' electric display of blood, sweat, and tears proves why Mi Sangre is one of the year's best releases. --Joey Guerra

Album Description

Juanes has surprised us once again, his creativity continues to ascend. "Mi Sangre" has high doses of Rock with the original fusion of Latin American Rhythms. It includes 12 amazing songs all penned by Juanes. Songs that excite with their rhythm, beautiful melody, poetry and musical form. Original and simple, the songs deal with personal relationships, love and the urban aspects of society. "Mi Sangre" (My Blood) "is what I live for, what I love, my love, my daughter, my family, my music, my people, my passion, my memories, my doubts and yearnings."

Juanes nos sorprende una vez mas con su creatividad. Mi Sangre contiene 12 canciones totalmente originales con letra y musica de Juanes. La letra es original y sencilla, la tematica sigue abordando las relaciones personales, el amor cotidiano, lo urbano con interes en el aspecto social, vida, muerte, familia, sobrevivencia, esperanza y soledad son elementos recurrentes en el innovador lenguaje de este talentoso compositor. "Mi Sangre es lo que yo vivo, lo que amo, mi amor, mi hija, mi familia, mi musica, mi pueblo, mi passion, mi guitarra, mis recuerdos y mis anhelos."

Juanes.......2007-01-19

I really enjoyed this CD. He has an outstanding voice and it was a pleasure to listen to.

A Great Album.......2007-01-11

Juanes, hitherto unkown in the United States, has shown that Spanish-language, and non-American at that, artists can make just as much a splash on our charts as anyone. This award-winning album is nice cross section of Juanes's talents as a musician.

Enjoyment from beginning to end.......2007-01-10

I have heard only a couple of Juane's songs on the radio. I purchased this CD for the Nada Valgo Sin Tu Amor song. It was a pleasant blend of romantic, yet hip pop songs. He's got a very original sound. The beats and styles were interesting.

Customer Reviews:

2-3 good pieces..........2007-04-18

The CD is not as great as others mention, at least not for me. I like 2-3 of the pieces but that's it.

wonderful CD!!.......2006-08-08

this is a great CD -- i would rate it 4.5 stars. i was expecting more upbeat songs like track #2, but it is a great CD to lounge with.

the beats are awesome, and very well put together tracks.

This is chill out, not tango.......2006-08-03

If you are looking for traditional tango, or you expect some kind of modern tango like Piazzola, don't buy this CD. This CD is electronic and interesting music, and i enjoy it a lot. I Strongly recommend this CD for people who likes electronic neither dancing nor meditation music. Moreover, i recommend to start with "La Revancha del Tango" from Gotan Project to listen how chill out tango sounds.

Pure Lounge music.......2006-06-06

Trip hop and lounge lovers need to have this CD at home. Bajo Fondo Tango Club is not as pure tango as Piazzola's nor as chill out percolated as Gotan Project's, which makes them a band for all publics. Nor even one single person in my office couldn't help download at least one song of this CD into their ipods. Three of them already bought their copy.

Rubbish.......2006-03-29

I agree with the fellow who used the word Muzak to describe this nonsense. It has all the feel of elevator music made for a business park in suburban Buenos Aires. In fact it made me rethink my feelings about the Gotan Project, which has one or two good cuts to its credit with the rest of its output being similar drivel. Honestly, begin with Tango Zero Hour by Piazzola and you will never tolerate garbage like the Bajafondo Tango Club.

My first David Bisbal CD.......2006-11-12

I bought this while in Mexico. I liked his songs from his previous CD, so I wanted to get his new one. It was a leap of faith to buy it since I didn't get to listen to his music. But I was not disappointed! I love it, it is great. It gets me to dance even while I'm driving!! My favorite tracks are 1, 3, and 4 (Torre de Babel is my favorite!!). I like the flamenco/middle eastern sound to the song. It's great. Highly recommend this one.

Tiguere el David Bisbal!!.......2006-10-23

Vamos a mantener este review corto. Este album ta clasico.
Asi de sencillo.

Tiguere!!

Disapointing.......2006-10-20

I think David Bisbal should stick with his roots, the flamenco/pop he does like no other. This album is more rock, typical music of today, nothing like the different sounds that his two first albums brought. I don't find the same enthusiastic David as in previous songs. His ballads are boring, and the rest of the album is dull and very predictable. I love this singer, but I think he should stick to the best tallent he has, and that is to bring his roots to the forefront and keep the rock music to the rockers. I don't care for rock, perhaps that's why I don't like this album, but I truly don't think it's going to catch on like the other two he did. "Torre de Babel" is great though, it's David Bisbal singing and doing what he does best, flamenco/pop, original and different. I was anticipating this album, now I'm just sorry I bought it....good thing it was on sale, that should say something about it, it's not selling well if only after 2 weeks of being out, it's already being discounted. I hope his next is flamenco/pop otherwise, he'll lose this fan.

The companion cd to volume 1 and every bit as good. This release has the top cream of old school salsa in it. Not one bad track in the lot. Of all the salsa compilations I have come across, this and vol. 1 are as good as it gets. Wheter you are a hard core Latino or are just a lover of great music, I highly recommend this. You just can't go wrong here. Bon appetit.

Truly Great Salsa.......2007-01-12

Although the title may seem a bit smug, this truly is great salsa from all over Latin America and the Caribbean. This is an ideal collection not only for a genuine salsaholic but also someone who is looking for an overview of the genre. There is not a single lame groove on this disc, and some of my favorites are songs I had never even heard when I bought it. Some of these songs also have things to say, like the heartbreaking story of "El Gran Varon" (The Great Male) and the scathing social commentary of "Plastico." For real old-school salsa, check out "Las Caras Lindas" (Beautiful Faces) or The Queen of Salsa herself, Celia Cruz, on "Quimbara." Another great tune is "A la Hora que Me Llamen Voy" (At the moment they call me, I go) by Jose Alberto "El Canario": It starts with a crowd scene like Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On," then the intoxicating chorus begins, the beat kicks in, and El Canario starts singing in a voice so sensual that it could melt iron. This is the rare CD on which you will find yourself listening to every song and not skipping over a single one!

Great chill music.......2006-03-27

I first heard this CD at the Museum of Fine Arts shop inside Boston's Logan Airport. It was like a breeze of fresh air as all the restaurants were playing the good ole American pop and rock n roll. The songs have rythms and lyrics from multiple Spanish-speaking countries and no two songs are alike. It's perfect for chilling at home or as background music for a party. I've had many friends asking me about this CD when I had them over for dinner. :) Absolutely fantastic!

Surprise package.......2006-03-21

I was in Hot Springs, Arkansas (of all places) when I heard this CD playing in the local crystal/novelty/tat shop on the main street. The only thing I would have ever wanted to buy in that place was the music, and luckily they had spare copies of this CD.

I love it - I've never had any hankering for Latin music, or any other part of Spanish language culture - but this CD just won't let me go. Everyone on this page is right - this is just a great CD!

Breathtaking CD.......2005-09-27

Putumayo manages to do it again. Don't know how they manage to find some of the most creative young artists from around the world... all I can say is "Keep 'em coming!". This is my 20th Putumayo CD... and I am looking forward to the next 20!!!

New Latino Territory.......2005-07-19

The folks at Putamayo continue to show that they have great skill in finding new music and unbeatable taste. This compilation eschews more raucous and festive party music for new music from the Spanish-speaking world that has been influenced by electronica and art rock. The mood is romatic but cool. Highlights include Raul Paz's "Mulata," which evokes an erotic obsession on the winding streets of a seaside town--a sort of Last Tango in Barcleona. The Spanish band Jarabe de Palo's "Lado Oscuro" is a passion-filled plea from man to woman to love freely with no strings attached. All in all, a great introduction to new artists, some like Paz and Jarabe de Palo who are best known in Europe, and superb ambient background for traveling or a mellow party. Good liner notes introduce the performers. Wish they could include complete lyrics.

Hey this is fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2005-06-24

Okay I adore this cd...I put it on in my car and it takes me back to my Summers in Spain, as a child, growing up in London!! But with a wild twist..fanatastic music that will transport you and revive you but at the same time is calming..if that makes sense. Each track is a delight and I am just now buying more to give as gifts..yes it is that good!!!
