Description:

Too much might never be enough for fans of Latin pop superstar Luis Miguel's swooning balladry. For discerning listeners, however, Amarte Es Un Placer is the same old song and dance. The album balances swooning ballads with up-tempo numbers, much like Miguel's previous Nada Es Igual and Aries. Admittedly, Miguel displays a wonderfully expressive voice, particularly on "Tu Mirada," "Soy Yo," and "O Tú o Ninguna," but other problems surface. Up-tempo numbers such as "Sol, Arena y Mar," "Quiero," and "Dímelo en un Beso" feature tepid arrangements akin to background music for a Miami Vice episode, and Miguel doesn't inject any real rhythm into the songs. The sole exception is "Te Propongo Esta Noche," which breaks into a pulsing club beat. Miguel would be wise to follow that same path next time around. --Joey Guerra

4This Album was Pretty Good but not classic.  Oct 04, 2009
Luis Miguel isn't a bad composer in this one but he should still let others write the songs for him. However, I liked 6 songs outta 12, which is worth buying and I think many others would like it too. The best tracks on the album are "O Tu O Ninguna", "Quiero", "Dimelo en un Beso", "Te Propongo Esta Noche", "Tu Solo Tu" and "Amarte es un Placer." I wouldn't consider this album his best but worth listening too so I would recommend this Album too anyone who's a fun of Luismi.

4Wonderful voice  Aug 30, 2008
Luis Miguel is a great singer. His ballads are beautiful. Some of the songs are too fast for me. I prefer boleros.

4Excellente!  Oct 15, 2006
This is not a TRADITIONAL latin album, he only sings in Spanish, but it's the best U.S. session cats and some great material and high quality production, and besides he's an exciting vocalist and gutsy performer so I dig this CD very much and I can't speak Spanish at all. I highly recommend it to fans of West Coast AOR. It's fun, funky and romantic.
Features the top session vocalists and sessions players from Los Angeles and it won several Grammies. BUY IT!! If you love very much a U.S. R&B /MOR sound.

5No. Luis Miguel is not a new name to me  Jun 23, 2004
I just got this cd from LM a few days ago and I must say that the cd is great. Even though this my first cd from Lm I have heard of him before and I had seen him. Not in person though. I want to get a whole bunch more of cds from Mr. Miguel and I hope their just as good as Amarte Es Un Placer. I remembered Amarte Es Un Placer was a hit in 1999 and I had jus fallen in love with the song but never got the cd. Well I have it in my collection now. Thanks

1North-American commercial sound - in Spanish  Dec 01, 2003
What is the justification for using an orchestra of 115 players
--according to the list at the back of the book - when the main sound that comes out behind the singer - is drums and more drums.
First- there are no latin rhythms anywhere--only 7 very slow songs that use over 90 strings behind all those drums--and 5 fast pieces that use a brass section and chorus as well as LM's own rhythm section.
The quality of the arrangements leaves much to be desired. The players list notes 11 woodwinds and eight horns. All that can be heard is an occasional oboe and a distant horn.

An orchestra of these proportions should be playing Wagner. In the case of this production, it would have been better to put these simple arrangements on a synthesizer and free up all those expensive resources to do something useful that would give them some satisfaction in their work.

LM can do anything he wants, and get the backing for it. Next time, the producers should think about some quality.
