Colombian singer-songwriter Juanes's second solo album is many things:poetic, lyrical, heartfelt, and intelligent. Ordinary, however, would not beamong the list of adjectives. The humble title, Un Dia Normal, is more adescription of the album's overall themes. It's a slicker and catchiercollection than Juanes's politically minded 2000 albumFijate Bien, which earnedseven Latin Grammy nominations and tons of critical attention. Un DiaNormal finds the former member of rock outfit Ekhymosis contemplating anarray of inner emotions--primarily life, love, and loss--all anchored by GustavoSantaolalla's tight, precise production work. "La Unica" is a sweet and tunefullove letter, while "Mala Gente" finds Juanes damning a cruel lover tohell--literally. "A Dios le Pido" is an intoxicating swirl of cumbia,reggae, and folk rhythms, but it's the bittersweet duet "Fotografia" that trulysoars. Juanes's unassuming vocal style is the perfect complement to Canadiansongbird Nelly Furtado'slilting soprano, creating a shining moment among an already impressivecollection of gems. --Joey Guerra

Rating: - The perfect vacation album
This was the only album in our condo in Mexico, and we listened to it over and over.I like Latin music anyway, and this was a great option.We ordered it to listen to at home, and it takes us back to our beachside paradise.
Rating: - He talks to my heart.
I have a weakness for Spanish music and this man is no exception.He makes me feel like he is singing only to me.
Rating: - GreatRock Album
I bought this CD after listening to Austin City Limits concert featuring Juanes.That was the first time I've heard him sing, and I loved the music immediately.I especially like the following tracks: La Paga, Mala Gente, Fotografia, and La Noche.Overall, the entire album is good.
Great rock music, that's gonna make you wanna dance.Especially great for summer parties.
