Paulina Rubio - Paulina

Since the release of 1996's dance-oriented Planeta Paulina, Paulina Rubio has switched labels, refocused her musical energy, and emerged with a palette of sounds and styles that makes Paulina her most diverse and mature album yet. With the help of Colombian producer and songwriter Estefano, Rubio has taken the rock, pop, and dance influences heard on previous albums and blended them effortlessly on this collection, her fourth. The first single, "Lo Hare Por Ti," rides an infectious guitar hook, while "Yo Sigo Aqui" and "Sexi Dance" showcase pulsing club rhythms. Rubio even dabbles in Go-Go's-flavored pop ("Sin Aire") and interprets one of the great Juan Gabriel's polished ballads ("Cancun y Yo"). The album's shining moment, though, is "El Ultimo Adios," which bleeds electric guitars and a lilting pop beat into a traditional mariachi arrangement. Forget Ricky and Jennifer--Paulina is Latin pop for the new millennium. --Joey Guerra Amazon.com

Pulina- used cd

I like this cd, actually I bought it used in order to replace the cd which was stollen from me 1 yr. ago, however, the description in the used cds said "very good condition, like new" and the cd have scratches in the back. February 10, 2008

fun music

I started with ananda and am doing some backtracking, the fun thing is there is a lot of variety, here is my song by song breakdown
T1-Catchy vocals in the chorus and at the end of the lalalala part, not slow but not fast-9/10
T2-More horns in this once, which i don't like, has more of a traditional sound, i also don't like the sliding bass in the chorus or the guy singing in the background, i also dont like the scream/whine thing after the chrous, other that it's not that bad, tolerable-5/10
T3-Slow but very nice, love the bass, nice chorus very relaxing song-9/10
T4-Dance song, very fun upbeat and catchy, i normally don't like vocal alterations but they're cool in this one-9/10
T5-Faster again, real hyper and active, the prechorus is a mile a minute, cool-9/10
T6-Slowing down again, the lead guitar is pretty, sounds kind of like satriani, nice chord changes, very well done-9/10
T7-Dance again, sexy vocals for sexi dance, very catchy-9/10
T8-Back to a mod pace, again a nice song, who's the guitarist he's got good style?-9/10
T9-Santana like intro, Catchy open chorus with the harmonies, cool chord changes in the verse, mod pace-9/10
T10-Everyhting about this song sounds so happy, the twangy guitar in the intro, the bass line especialy halfway through the verse cool!, the chorus is super catchy-9/10
T11-Dancing Again, gloria estefan like with the beat and horns, very fun song-9/10
T12-Wow they saved the best for last, for sure, buy the album just for this one-10/10

Fun album because of the variety, it doesnt fit into any category so if you wanted all dance you should combine them from other albums. March 20, 2007

Vive Paulina!

Ese fantástico CD contiene unas de las mejores piezas musicales del Latín Pop que hay!

La artista, Paulina Rubio, es una de la mas conocidas cantantes pop de México y me sorprende mucho porque ella no tiene ni la mitad del éxito de su colega colombiana Shakira en Europa. En Europa casi solo se conoce Paulina en España donde vivió por algunos anos. Pero en Alemania y otros países en Europa Central Pau lamentablemente es casi desconocida.

Espero que con este CD va a ganar mas aficionados. La verdad es que en "Paulina" no hay una sola canción mala (bueno, tal vez tengo que admitir que no me gusta tanto el "Tal Vez, Quiza"...). Les recomiendo especialmente escuchar Y Yo Sigo aquí, Sexi Dance, Cancun y Yo, Vive el Verano y Lo haré por Ti. September 30, 2006

Wow. A great cd @}->---

My third Paulina cd and I love it as much as Border Girl and La Historia. This is a eclectic mix of dance, ballad and techno style music to name a few. It's always got that fantastic latin pop flavour and that makes for a great cd that I still listen to today. It's her fourth cd and the first that she did with Universal. I think it's her best.
While I'm not normally a fan of techno, I do like Sexi Dance. It's such a great dance song and good for clubbing. I love the beautiful ballad Tal Vez, Quiza and the catchy and infectious Vive el Verano. There is a lot of variety on this cd and I guess that's why I like it a lot and for the fact that she is such a good singer. I know she is droping another new cd any day now and I'm hoping it's even half as good as this. Paulina is a good performer and singer and this cd is really enjoyable and should have a wide appeal for a lot of different musical tastes. I love it. September 15, 2006
