Suenos Liquidos

I ordered this CD more or less on a whim, after reading several online reviews and having listened to a few 30 second outtakes. This gamble has paid off royally, i like to think. Since i received my copy some ten days later i have not regretted my purchase for as long as a split second. Until recently i mistakenly believed that Coda and Tercer Acto were the best Mexican rock music has to offer, but this choice band (heretofore unknown to me) set me straight on this score.Mana's greatest asset as far as i can tell is singer and principal lyricist/composer Fher, who has a mesmerizing voice reminiscent of Sting. But contrary to what a track like "Clavado en un bar" may deceptively suggest, they are far from just a heavier, Spanish language carbon copy of The Police. Their compelling sound incorporates a variety of influences, both modern and traditional, forging them together into a novel, trademark style with universal appeal.

It's been almost seven years since Maná released this album, but I still think it's a great album. This band, in my opinion, has been the most successful Spanish rock band. They have tons of hits and every single one of their albums is a monster album with many hits. Maná also talk about many different kinds of things in their songs.

From this album, we get hits like "Hechicera" and "Clavado En Un Bar", but probably the classic song in this album is "En El Muelle De San Blas", which is a very touching sad song. I honestly cannot say that I have a favorite song from this album because every single song is special in its own way.

"Como Dueles En Los Labios" is another touching slow song in this album with great lyrics. "Me Voy A Convertir En Un Ave" is a very sad song that talks about a man that is unjustly...Read more

Suenos Liquidos is Mana's best representation of their music. The album contains awesome and catchy songs such as "Hechicera" and "Clavado en un Bar." Ballads such as "Como Dueles en los Labios" and "En el Muelle de San Blas" contain beautiful lyrics and can be enjoyed by people of any age or language. If you want to give Spanish rock a try this is the group and the album to check out. Out of the 20 Spanish rock albums that I own I would have to say that Suenos Liquidos is the best. Disregard any negative comments made about these guys or the album. Mana's Suenos Liquidos is the standard by which all other Spanish Latin American rock albums should be judged.
