Reviews Customer Reviews for Vivir      Enrique Iglesias - Not Julio - Enrique!      Rating:      Vivir Just because Enrique Iglesias' father is probably now a legend in both Spanish and American music, Enrique Iglesias has undoubtedly developed a tremendous following on his own. I neither compare him to his father, nor would I ever, and the only reason I even mention Julio is that so many others are always writing about the two in a side by side comparison as if they came as part of a package deal! (Amazon - that might be a good marketing technique!) Regardless, this CD is truly a good work of Enrique, as is evidenced by the three chart toppers off of this album - Miente, Solo En Ti, and Enamorado Por Primera Vez. Enrique is definitely a Latin Music Pop Star, and well-deserved. The only mistake Enrique made was upon an interview, when asked what the one thing he would change in his life, he said he would change his male member! Now, of course, he is teased to no-end about his declaration to the world that he is unpleased with his birthright!     Customer Reviews for Vivir Cd      ENRIQUE'S SECOND / MAKES U VIVIR LOVE...      Rating:      Enrique's second cd is mostly pop ballads which go good with his type of voice. The song that stands out and is my fave in this cd is #6 Miente. It has some roller coaster arpeggios for background while he sings. Great cd if ur in love or wanting to hook up with some hot girl. I would say the last song, Revolucion, is the worst on the cd for it's senseless lyrics and funky drum rolls in the middle of the phrases. This cd is good to listen when u want to think about ur girlfriend/boyfriend. Good sophomore cd for an artist that has an oustanding career. Editorial Reviews for Vivir Audio Cd      Amazon.com      For his sophomore work, Enrique Iglesias demonstrated a willingness to go beyond the predictable soft rock/pop balladry that marked his first album. Smart, considering that having good looks and a famous father can only carry one so far. On Vivir, Iglesias throws down the rock-guitar edge of "Volveré," on remembering a good love, and the rhythmic pop of "Revolución," a brooding tune about defiance. Then there's the reggae-flavored "Lluvia Cae." On the ballad side, Iglesias injects emotional depth on "Miente," a passionate stance on refusing to accept the end. All these tunes are alternatively propelled by guitars, piano, and/or percussion. The rest of the CD is pretty much passionless puffery. Still, Iglesias is a young, developing artist, and it is good to see a willingness to try new things, especially in a pop field where supply exceeds demand. --Ramiro Burr
