5 out of 5 stars wtf, this cd has got to be number one in my I don't know how many 1000's of cd's.......2006-12-26

so everybody understands, wtf?, this cd is perhaps one in my 1000's cd's I have heard, well, hear it here now, THE BEST, I own maybe all of her cd's and played it tonight during christmas dinner with the family, they all asked who is she?, this is candy to your ears but then again that saying is too old for this cd, in fact this is an understatement, what do you call it when the right words are not found to describe something?, a few days ago this guy compared laura pausini with celine dion, that is a good joke, laura says when she is singing: "ah, is this the way you want to sing celine", but then again we all have to compare to make a point just to make a point so a very few people get the point but it's well worth it....ah the sweet life, that is what this cd says all over...

LANGUAGES. LAURA SINGS GENTE LIKE NO ONE ELSE CAN.
LAURA BY LAURA PAUSINI IS A MUST HAVE FOR EVERYONE.

4 out of 5 stars Not quite as good as her first album, but still great.......2000-10-30

This is the other album of original material in Italian, from which some songs were pulled to be rerecorded in Spanish for her first Latin American album. I'm sure whomever owns her first Spanish language album will recognize and adore the first five songs on this album. For me, Lui Non Sta Per Te is even better than El No Esta Por Ti, its Spanish counterpart. On the other hand, I like the Spanish version of Ragazze Che (Las Chicas) more than the Italian one. But these are minor points- these songs are great in both languages.

Again, there are some songs here that didn't make the cut when songs were chosen to be rerecorded in Spanish. Of the four, two are great, and the other two are horrible. Un Amico E Cosi is similar in style to Lui Non Sta..., and Amori Strani. I love the lyrics- it is a song about the beauty of a great friendship. The only thing that I sort of dislike is how she tries to be overly emotional in one stanza towards the end. The other great song, Amori Infiniti, gets better with repeated listening. At first, the background sounds a bit too cloying, but I love how the song builts to an emotional end. In this case, the emotional delivery isn't stilted, as is the case with Un Amico E Cosi.

Like another reviewer said, you can't escape some boring songs here. I can't really understand how it is that the two "bad" songs made it on the album to make ten songs, when on her first album there are only eight songs, which was fine. Both Cani E Gatti and Anni Miei sound very dated and childish. I can't stand the "uh, uh" in the beginning of the Cani E Gatti, and Anni Miei sounds like she recorded it in fifth grade. I know this is being harsh, but when you hear what Laura Pausini is capable of singing, you can't justify the inclusion of such substandard material.

The last song is the original Italian version of Carta, which I've always been fond of, though it's not among the best that she recorded during this time.

Dire de nuevo que vale la pena comprar este disco, junto con su primer disco italiano. Sin duda las mejores canciones suyas son de este etapa, y las versiones italianas merecen que las escuches. Ademas, tendras las canciones que no decidieron grabar en espanol, talvez porque son demasiado para un solo disco.

5 out of 5 stars Overall very good.......2000-02-19

I really like this CD. There is a lot of variation between the numbers; some are calm, other wilder. Of course I must say that Laura Pausini has a beautiful voice. Gente is a beautiful song, I like the syncopes, the lyrics and the music, that is variated. Lui non sta con te is a bit a like a chorale, it is quite calm, but I like it. Strani amori is, I think, the best song on the CD, the lyrics are excellent the rhythm is nice too and I like the modulations. Ragazze che is very rhythmic. The alto saxophone solos are very good. Il coraggio che non c'ý is calm and fluent. The accord scheme is lovely too. The melody is nice. Un amico ý cosý is again a bit choral-like, but in becomes wilder and wilder. I like the guitar in it. In Amori Infiniti I like the 'riff' at the end of each 'sentence'. Amori infiniti is calm and beautiful. Cani e gatti is less futile than you would think while reading the title. It is very rhythmic, you can feel the beat. The electric guitar solos are rough and good. The melody is good too. Anni miei is not as good as the rest, and so is Lettera. They are calm, but do not have enough variation.

5 out of 5 stars Great, but some songs are not Laura style.......1999-12-01

It's the only album of Laura that you can not avoid the boring songs. Well, borings songs appear in any album of any artist, but not of Laura. But, it worth to buy it only for the first songs, and for the song "Amore Infiniti", that appears only in this album. The Spanish version of this album is also pretty much good, and has only beautiful songs - the bests from the version of this album in Italian, and from another one in Italian. I don't like the style of music that she sings in the lasts songs. It's not her style. But, anyway, Laura is Laura! I do not regret to buy this album and still listen to this with all my heart. I know the songs by heart. I loved this album.
