So the highly anticipated first single from their long awaited new album, AMAR ES COMBARTIR, was finally released yesterday. This first single is called "labios compartidos" and the verdict: YAAAAAAWN.... Boring, boring, boring! Sounds like their same old ballads a la "eres mi religion", "mariposa traisionera", and "te llore como un rio". I still do not understand how these extremely bland group keeps selling millions of records witht their generic music. I bet they debut close to the top of Billboard's 200 album chart.  |

I remember hearing a lot of good things about Mana in the 90s. Now it seems like everyone hates them. ???

I think they hit their peak when they released their MTV UNPLUGGED album which was around the same time they collaborated with Santana on "corazon espinado" from his blockbuster comeback album SUPERNATURAL.
I think that was a good time for them creatively. The unplugged cd was produced really well and they truly sounded good. Not a whole lot of artists can pull off a live, unplugged record (sorry Shakira).
But then their music has gone downhill. REVOLUCION DE AMOR was a rehash of SUENOS LIQUIDOS and their new one AMAR ES COMBARTIR will probably be a rehash of REVOLUCION. They need to experiment with new sounds and take notes from their contemporaries like Jaguares. Saul Hernandez & Co. might not change their sound dramatically but a least their lyrics and arrangement are bit more interesting.

Yeah, I didn't like most of the Revolucion de Amor album, but I LOVED the first few singles! They were rehashed Mana, but they were JAMS!

How's that making history? Haven't Shakira and Ricky Martin done this in the past? I hate this song so much, words can't begin to describe it. And the only reason why it did this was because of the payola movement.
I was talking to one of the DJ's on SuperEstrella and he told me he pretty much hated the song also, but that they "had" to play it. He said it was same ol' recycled stuff from Mana.
It bugs the hell out of me that Mana gets played on every damn station, but awesome bands like Babasonicos, Aterciopelados, and Molotov can't find an outlet in the mainstream US latin market. What a shame.... :(
