Some of them, like Jenni Rivera, I had to practically change the channel.<BR/><BR/>Since I love Spanish, and Juanes' commitment to singing in his own language, I don't mind if he never sings in English. However, given that he's probably the best pop singer there is, as far as I'm concerned, probably would be great for him to reach a wider audience.<BR/><BR/>Look forward to hearing his new song.Greenotterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10797132091234472102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16285355.post-56974167604337170202008-09-09T07:52:00.000-04:002008-09-09T07:52:00.000-04:00I've listened to the song twice and I really like ...I've listened to the song twice and I really like Juanes new song! The melody is immediately catchy, it has good dynamics of building at appropriate times. The instrumentation expresses hope and vision. I also thought it was an interesting touch in an ever increasing global community for Juanes to continually flip English con español.<BR/><BR/>Though I agree with Juanes that it is tiempo de cambiar, the only question that I have it: ¿How? ¿Can everyone really just stop hating others all by themselves? The problem seems to run much deeper. And I don't have the power of myself to merely make a decision to start loving everyone. Life is much more complicated than that. So in this sense, though I like the musicality of the song very much, the chorus is too simplistic. <BR/><BR/>Nevertheless, that I'll buy it when it comes out!Allen and Sandi Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05943752234738989503noreply@blogger.com
