La Vida… Es un Ratico excellent as usual – G. N. De Guzman –
I simply love Juanes. I’ve been listening to him since Fijate Bien & he just always seem to make a good album. Sometimes a few of his songs tend to sound a bit the same on past albums, but on La Vida.. he strays from the usual. I liked the slow, intense ballads & continue to adore him.
I have to say, I’ve been a fan of Juanes’ since I first heard “Nada” on MTV en español years ago. It’s been absolutely amazing watching him grow as an artist, and as a fan, I feel privileged to have been a part of that. When I first heard this album, I wasn’t sure about it. I felt it lacked the charm of Mi Sangre, the passion of Un Día Normal, and the fire of Fijate Bien. But the more I listened to it, and after seeing him perform his songs live, I fell deeply in love and the veil was lifted from my eyes. Me Enamora, which I had instantly liked, fell to the wayside. It’s easily the weakest song on the album. If you want fun, there’s Gotas de Agua Dulce. If you’ve had your heart broken and need to scream, there’s Dificil. If you want to dance while washing the dishes, there’s Tres. La Vida es Un ratico is reminiscent of Un Dia Normal in message and tone, but it’s far more heart rending. Maybe it’s the knowledge of the pain in Juanes’ personal life that gives this CD more heart and soul, but while I respect and love his earlier CD’s, I feel like this album was born of his sweat, blood, and tears. It’s going to be hard to top. : 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 escribió letra y musica de todos los temas durante los dos ultimos años, entre la etapa final de la gira de “Mi Sangre” y un periodo sabatico en el que se concentro en la composición 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.

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 Sánchez (People en Español
