Enrique Iglesias' first Spanish-language album in several years doesn't depart from the usual approach for Latin audiences: emotion-drenched, ballad-driven fare that harks back to American pop formats of the '80s. It is quite a departure from the previous year's Escape, however, which flattered English listeners (and, largely, the American audience) with rangy material and a roster of studio-driven arrangements. Quizás has all the hallmarks of Latin fare; only two songs ("Mamacita," "Pienso en Tí") are even close to up-tempo songs, and the rest have similar arrangements, synthetic production, and a similarly inconsolable Iglesias pouring his heart out, whether the title is "Tres Palabras" or "La Chica de Ayer." ~ John Bush, All Music Guide

Another Way To Die Alicia Keys & Jack White |
| When Jack White and Alicia Keys were asked to write the theme to the latest Bond film, Quantum of Solace, it wasnt exactly the straightforward task you might imagine. Not only did they have to take the place of a much anticipated effort from Amy Winehouse, which predictably never materialised, they were also faced with the challenge of writing a theme for one of the most awkwardly phrased Bond films of all time. Quantum of Solace hardly rolls off the tongue after all! The result is a workmanlike effort that draws on many trademark elements of both the Bond franchise and the musicians musical repertoire. With snarling guitar riffs from Jack, overblown vocals and twinkling piano from Alicia and a few orchestral style stabs that hark back to the original John Barry theme, Another Way to Die is equal but no better than the sum of its parts. Despite popjustice.com branding the track the worst Bond theme of all time this song will fulfil its design brief when the credits to the film are rolling as it has enough OTT touches to make the expensive graphics look cool. | |
