5 out of 5 stars Jimena rules.......2004-05-26

Caught Jimena at a local festival here in New Orleans. Liked her stuff and bought the cd.

What a great cd. If you like Selena-type music, then this cd is for you.

Every song is excellent.

4 out of 5 stars All over the map stylistically, but somehow it WORKS!.......2006-12-27

It's hard to categorize the VOLAR SIN ALAS CD. Stylistically, Jimena is all over the map. Yet somehow, it all flows together and manages to work rather well! Part modern Latin Pop, part dance, part "soft" rock ballad, part traditional Mexican, part classy lounge act, and part electro-pop. All of which sound like (no pun intended!) a recipe for musical disaster, but somehow this album seamlessly flows from song to song and style to style. Sometimes featuring grand orchestration with seemingly large string sections--at other times, minimalist in nature with a few guitars and percussion. Emilio Estefan has a hand in the production, so that may explain HOW this odd mix actually works so well! He DOES seem to know what he's doing!

Vocals vary from smooth to edgy depending on the style of the song. I bought this CD on the strength of the title track, VOLAR SIN ALAS, a powerful standout song in my opinion. Well sung and well mixed by somebody who understands how to use channel separation to best effect. Not many songs can come to a near full stop, then roll out the tympanic drum roll and pull you right back in. It's not quite ALSO SPRACH ZARATHUSTRA (you may know it as the 2001-A Space Odyssey theme!) or IN THE AIR TONIGHT by Phil Collins, but it's still pretty darn cool!

Also a very interesting, well done cover version of OTRO DIA MAS SIN VERTE, the big Jon Secada hit from the early 90s.

Jimena shares writing credit on all tracks but OTRO DIA MAS, so there's more here than simply a talented vocalist.

BONUS remix tracks of VOLAR SIN ALAS? Well, they are what they are! NEW and DIFFERENT vocal tracks on the Cumbia Nortena and Salsa versions. Recycled vocals with the "pitch" set up 3% or so from the album track remixed over alternate music beds for the Reggaeton & Dance mixes. It's an old trick we used to use in radio, pitch the turntable +3% and pick up the tempo of dead slow songs without quite crossing over into "chipmunk" territory! Again, the remixes are what they are. Interesting, but entirely unrelated to the rest of the album!

No lyrics, so those of us who don't hear Spanish as well as we can read it will just have to strain our ears and practice our listening technique!

ALL IN ALL (not including the BONUS remix tracks), an odd mix that somehow manages to work very well together! Having only heard the title track before I bought this CD, I had NO idea what I'd be getting musically. After giving it several listens, I'd have to say I'm rather pleasantly surprised! It's an album you can put on and enjoy from start to finish--at least until the remixes kick in! Worth the admission price!

    Jimena's sophomore CD is an awesome pop album with sweeping, romantic ballads and fast paced songs. Her voice is beautiful and she doesn't over or under sing, it's just right. Both the ballad and extended club mix of the title track are equally as good. All the others songs are just as good displaying her wonderful voice. Recommended to any Pop music lover.

    Maria jimena has a beautiful voice, no doubt of that, she has a nice body, her performances are great, but in this album none of this seems to work out.

    "dedicado" her chilean debut, and it`s basically ballads and more danceably tunes..the production is awful, for not to say shameless..
