People en Español
The career of this singer/songwriter has made huge strides in the last five years, and it shouldn't surprise anyone that the Colombian singer's style has become unique. If this were his first CD, Juanes could be labeled as genial, because no sound can even get close to what we hear here. But this is his fourth album, and it sounds exactly as the previous ones. Produced by Gustavo Santaolalla, La vida has a fantastic sound and an impeccable production. Yet originality is not precisely its mark. --Ernesto Sanchez (People en Espanol  ) La carrera de este cantautor ha crecido a pasos agigantados en los ultimos cinco anos y no es como para extranar a nadie, el colombiano tiene un estilo que lo hace unico. Si este fuera el primer disco de Juanes se podria catalogar como genial, porque no hay nada que suene parecido, pero este es el cuarto album del colombiano y suena exactamente igual que los anteriores. Hay que decir que el disco, que es una produccion de Gustavo Santaolalla, tiene un sonido fantastico y una produccion impecable. Pero la originalidad no es precisamente su sello. --Ernesto Sanchez (People en Espanol )

La Vida...Es un Ratico (Life is a moment) is the follow up to Juanes' globally multi-platinum release Mi Sangre. In La Vida...Es un Ratico, Juanes once again teams up with co-producer Gustavo Santaolalla, Double-Oscar/Grammy winner. In his first single "Me Enamora," Juanes shows us his intimate personal thoughts on love and relationships. In songs like "Minas Piedras" and Bandera de Manos" he tackles themes of both the hope for peace and social change. With this release, Juanes works to continue to perfect his distinctive fusion of rock with traditional Colombian rhythms and other international styles. Despues del exito de "Mi Sangre", Juanes nos presenta "Me Enamora" el primer sencillo de su tan esperado nuevo lanzamiento "La Vida...Es un Ratico. "La Vida...Es un Ratico" fue producido nuevamente por Juanes y Gustavo Santaolalla, ganador de dos premios Oscar y multiples Grammy's. Juanes escribio letra y musica de todos los temas durante los dos ultimos anos, entre la etapa final de la gira de "Mi Sangre" y un periodo sabatico en el que se concentro en la composicion de "La Vida...Es un Ratico". En "La Vida...Es un Ratico" hay canciones que hablan de temas sociales como "Minas Piedras" y "Bandera de Manos" y otras como el primer sencillo "Me Enamora" relacionadas a temas personales y del amor. En este lanzamiento Juanes consolida sin duda alguna su idea musical de fusionar rock con ritmos Colombianos, y ritmos internacionales. Juanes Photos More from Juanes

Me parece uno de los mejores CDs de Juanes. Mucho ritmo colombianisimo y me encanta la variedad de ritmos y arreglos musicales que integra en este CD.
 Best Juanes Album so far October 29, 2008
Romero Pack (El Paso, TX)
There have been a few reviews already and there seems to be a consensus that this is one if not the best of Juanes. I have to completely agree. I bought the CD as a gift for my wife but we both enjoyed it very much. The songs are well constructed and innovative. Juanes' Columbian roots can be heard through out the album. The songs vary in character from the romantic to the frenetic Latin beat. "Bailala" could well be confused with a Santana arrangement. Other songs carry a more meaningful anti-war message. My favorite song, and I am probably one of the few to enjoy this as much, is "No creo en el Jamas"; it's a song about not giving up on your dreams and goals with a nice modern beat that rivals that of the Killers. As we have been buying fewer and fewer CDs, the experience of hearing an album all the way through has pretty much disappeared from our lives. This is an Album I recommend you hear all the way through if you enjoy a colorful and varied range of beats and melodies.

Desde que Juanes estaba con Equimosis he seguido su carrera musical y creo que este disco es su mejor producto. Hay madurez y contenido social en sus letras, los ritmos son contagiosos, y estoy en desacuerdo con la persona que califica como repetitivo el sonido de este trabajo discografico. Es el mejor CD de musica en el ano 2007
Ya voy por el tercer CD que compro pues los otros dos terminaron en las carteras de los amigos de lo ajeno.

MusicWizard (Vancouver, Canada)
A beautiful cd from beginning to end. No surprises, the bulletproof classic Juanes sound is served as the main dish, but listen carefully and there's something new brewing. The base and drum for this production are excellent as well. Out of all his CDs I think this is his most personal and romantic.
Another Solid Album From Juanes March 30, 2008

After listening to this album a couple of times I would say that it is a very solid album. That is why I gave it 4 stars. My only problem is that it sounds so much like Fijate Bien in terms of style of songs that it isn't very original. I think that Un Dia Normal was stronger from beginning to end and I, unlike many others really like Mi Sangre. I am not a native Spanish speaker and Mi Sangre had 3-4 songs that were just so catchy. I think that this album lacks a little top end hit appeal but most songs are very good. I am not the kind of person that normally listens to every song in the album every time I listen to it. Un Dia Normal came as close to me wanting to listen to every song as I have ever been with an album and Mi Sangre had multiple songs that I could not get tired of (Ok La Camisa Negra after about 400 times might get a little old.) I just think that Juanes is at that point in his career where we know what Juanes can do. He is one of the best rockers of all times regardless of language. He is still just human and I just feel like we'll never be pleasantly surprised again because we've seen all of what he has to offer. Fijate Bien was one of the most solid solo debut albums of all times. Un Dia Normal was an artful masterpiece and Mi Sangre took certain songs to new levels in terms of mass appeal (Not saying that Adios Le Pido wasn't a mass appeal hit but it was the only song from that album that I could just hear 5 times in a row and love it and Mi Sangre had 3 songs that I thought were some of my favorite of all time (La Camisa Negra, Nada Valgo Sin Tu Amor and Volverte a Ver.)) I just feel that La Vida Es un Ratico just keeps up with the Juanes Status quo. Solid but it didn't take me to any new level of appreciation for his music.
