MTV Unplugged

No hay duda de que Julieta Venegas es talentosa en un estudio de grabacion. Tiene tres grandes albumes que demuestran su originalidad (Aqui, Bueninvento, Si) y un tropiezo en el pop desechable que aun asi significo millones de copias para la tijuanense ("Limon y Sal"). Sobre el escenario, sin embargo, Venegas no imprime energia ni pasion, y por eso, una realizacion de un acustico representaba un riesgo en su carrera. Para fortuna de la misma cantante, Venegas, al igual que Alanis Morissette, nacio para dar conciertos intimos y acusticos, y alejada de las masas, si sabe recrear la magia de sus discos. En MTV Unpluggged, Venegas invita a figuras como Natalia Lafourcade, La Mala Rodriguez, Marisa Monte, y Juan Son, logrando nuevas versiones de sus grandes exitos que resultan excitantes y muy acertadas. Un buen recuento de una (casi) perfecta carrera. --Ernesto Sanchez (People en Espanol)
