Date undefinedGreat CD with many good songs. If you liked his previous romantic albums you will definitely enjoy this one.

Date undefinedAlejandro Fernadez has a nice powerfull voice. I love his mariachi albums. His ealier pop cds were not too bad, but this one is very disappointing. He does not sing to his potential, the material selected is boring, the duet with that female pop singer is horrible. It looks that Alejandro tries too hard to conquer the crowd of teenagers.

Date undefinedI declined to review A CORAZON ABIERTO because I was disappointed, but at least Alejandro redeemed those songs on the live CD that followed.
Here I have to say I was more disappointed. Perhaps in a quest to widen his audience Alejandro has taken on lesser material which is not up to his truly amazing voice. Anyone who listens to this CD to hear him for the first time will not know what his fans rave about or why women throw their bras onstage when he performs. The breathiness of his singing on this CD omits 90% of his supberbly sexy lower register, which is one of the traits that wins female hearts and plays with their hormones.
Those of us who fell in love with the voice we heard in "Morenita Mia" or "Granada" on his earlier live album almost don't recognize what we're hearing on this one in songs like "Tanto Amar" or "Solitario y Solo." Some of the songs on this CD are better suited to Ricky Martin and I felt that Beyonce ran roughshod over him in "Amor Gitana."
I hope he realizes that expanding his repertoire should not alientate his core audience. We'd rather hear him try tango or flamenco, which would at least use the most emotive elements of his truly fine voice while adding to his mystique.
