So we all know that her current single is the duet with Aventura's Romeo, "no, no, no", but I still here this song on the radio quite often. It's a shame this wasn't one of her bigger hits b/c it's a killer dance track that could have struck a chord at the clubs.
I was dissappointed in the video, though. A song like this deserved a steamy, sexy video and not the generic rip off from previous videos like "a quien le importa?" Why is Thalia so scared of being sexy anymore?
She may be married, but she's still Mexico's hottest female artist (no matter how hard Paulina tries to change that).
Anyway, back to the track. What do you guys think? I think it's certainly one of her top 5 songs of all time. And the english version might be her best in that language to date.
Holla...

Why is Thalia so scared of being sexy anymore? Yep. Looked exactly like that one. Both suck. I don't think Tommy approves of her being sexy anymore. She keeps it classy, I have to admit. |

There's a difference between classy and boring. I'm huge Thalia fan, but I don't like the way she's been handling her promotions lately. And who gives a sh*t what Tommy thinks. He's been around long enough to know how the music industry works.
But back to "seduccion", I can't get enough of those awesome hooks. Her best dance track since "regresa a mi" by far.

I was listening to EL SEXTO SENTIDO the other day, and I still don't understand why this song didn't take off. Man those are great guitar hooks. And the dance beat is killer. Also, the english translations on this album were really good, probably the Thalia's best tracks in that language. She should have taken advantage of that and done some promotion in the English market, or at least some club remixes.

So after her Latin Grammy performance a couple of weeks ago, I have been listening to this song 24/7. I think my cd player is getting pretty tired of it, but I can't get enough of the killer guitar arrangement.
She should have promoted this more. It is definately one of her best dance tracks of all time, right up there with "arrasando" and "a quien le importa".

I like the guitar rhythms too, but the chorus sounds like a melody anyone can come up with.

Yeah, this is a real jam. The Grammys reminded me of that.

Almost two years since it was originally released on Thalia's EL SEXTO SENTIDO, and I still can't get enough of this song. I really dug her live performance of this song at last year's Latin Grammy's. Thalia cannot do wrong in my book--well except getting married. :( Check out the Latin Grammy performance: [ftp]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfnBXBa1iWE[/ftp] |

I didn't love the musical arrangement, but I liked the "spectacle". And her voice is great live!!

I did not expect all that "girl-on-girl" action from that performance.  |

I was at the Benny Ibarra concert in Dallas last Thursday night, and as soon as this song came on everybody went out to the dance floor. Thus proving, this could have been a huge hit for Thalia. She just failed to promote it properly... :(

Somebody made a comment on a different post that the video for "seduccion" and the video for Paulina's "nada puede cambiarme" were very similar. I guess so, since they both take place in a party but Thalia seems to at a New Year's bash while Paulina is at a gay wedding. You compare and contrast: Thalia - Seduccion[ftp]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-foa4tS6VY[/ftp] Paulina - Nada Puede Cambiarme[ftp]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9DtaHiWJYo[/ftp] But the biggest difference is that Thalia looks smokin' hot while Paulina looks like her skanky ol' self. |

Ah, the rivalry. I don't have a preference over the two, but I definitely prefer Thalia's new singles over the stuff I have heard from Paulina so far.

You can either love or hate Thalia's music, but you cannot accuse her of not being able to sing. Paulina, on the other hand, cannot carry a tune if her life depended on it. If Paulina has been able to stay relevant for so long, it's b/c she has some tremendous marketing behind her and support from her record company. That plus her many, many scandals that keep her in the news constantly.
But the biggest difference between the two comes down to when they perform live. Just check out the differences between these two live performances.

Thalia should get back into her 'Maria La Del Barrio' era persona I honestly thought she was much cooler on her very mexican sound of 'En Extasis' and 'Amor a La Mexicana' but since then when she started trying to be a nu JLO everything went downhill Bring Rosalinda back! |

That's nuts ! 2000 - 2003 was her best time/era ! And Thalia is NO MORE Rosalinda or Maria or else she is the pop/rock/latin singer Thalia and she should be like this . And yes , she don't wanna be fat so as I have said before Thalia does not wanna be Mariah and no , she is not the second J Lo . It is time FOR YOU to accept it ! Thalia is Thalia and she is always original , fresh and always different . She may be the new superstar AGAIN so you have to accept that she is unique and not imitating anybody !

I got into Thalia in her 2000-2002 era, so that is clearly her best.  "Arrasando" was/is teh jam of all jamz! |

Everyone has a favorite phase when it comes to Thalia's discography. I personally prefer the Arrasando Years (1999-2001). That is still my favorite album by her even though Amor A La Mexicana is lyrically superior and El Sexto Sentido is nearly perfect when it comes to the production values.
Arrasando was just such an unabashedly fun, record! I can't help but listening to it from beginning to end.

Thalia's BFF/Producer Estefano, was shot last friday. Apparently, he is not doing so well. He is one half of the duo, Donato y Estefano, but has had much more success producing hits for just about every major Latin artist including Gloria Estefan, Jennifer Lopez, Noelia, Paulina, and recently Chayanne.
Estefano has solely taken control of the production for Thalia's last two Spanish language albums: Thalia (2002) and El Sexto Sentido (2005). He is responsible for most of her latter hit singles including "tu y yo", "no me ensenaste", "amar sin ser amada", and of course "seduccion".
In the DVD bonus feature of El Sexto Sentido, it is obvious that he and Thalia have a very close relationship.
Here's hoping he can get better... |
