Last night I was at a friend's house watching MTV TRES and I saw the video for this song. I instantly loved it, and it reminded me of how much I liked this band version of this classic song "piel canela". I first heard it on a live show the band taped for a TELEHIT special as part of the promotion for the album CASA. However, when I was about to buy CASA, this song did not appear on the track list so I ended up not buying it. Last night, though, after the video ended it said the album appears on the CASA cd...so who the hell knows.  This song has been covered so much, I don't even know who originally sang it. I want to say it was Eddie Gormay. Anybody know? Bueller...Bueller...? ;) |

I thought it was Tin Tan who sang it first. ??? Lol, I'm not sure either.
So I guess Natalia is going to record her second solo album after this?

So I guess Natalia is going to record her second solo album after this? Who knows? I'm completely baffled as to why she chose to become part of a band just to break up a year later. It seemed somewhat pointless to me. I think Natalia's problems is that she wants to be taken seriously as an alternative/rock artist, but at the same time she likes to record very pop friendly songs. Her debut album was good, but musically it was all over the place...and not in a good way. Rather than one cohesive album, it sounded like a compilation by 3 or 4 different artists. And there was plenty of sugary pop balladry on it. Oh, and I asked one of my friends who knows a lot about older spanish music and she thinks this song was first recorded by Los Panchos.  |

Hey, King, tell me more about this band and Natalia please. I think I've heard only one song and noticed the alternative vibe. Something tells me that if I like Julieta so much, I might end up liking Natalia too. Which album would you recommend me to buy? Or key songs to download?
Thanks

I think Tortuga is a bigger fan than I am. I have Natalia's debut solo album and it's ok. Some good songs, some others that are not as good. It has a weird alternative, bossa nova jazzy sound. It's hard to explain.
Then she got together with her band La Forqutina and they released the album CASA, which had a much more alternative rock sound. My favorite songs are probably "ser humano" and this cover of "piel canela".
From her solo album I like "te quiero dar" and "noche divina". I hope this helps!

LOL, I only know like three songs from Natalia and only two from the band. Kinglouiexviii definitely knows more about their music.
Since he desribed Natalia's solo album as having "bossa nova" sounds. I believe Julieta has only experimented twice with that sound. "Como Se" from Aqui and "Fe" from Bueninvento.
I think you'll like Ely Guerra more. Her songs are really dark like early Julieta but sexier.

She is one of the most sensual performers I have ever seen. Her last album Sweet & Sour, Spicy y Hot is so hot from beginning to end, it could probably be used as a soundtrack for a porno movie. ;) Mmmm...I wonder if she has any new music coming out? |

I just noticed that Natalia looks a lot like Lily Allen. Anyone agree?

Incorporating La Forquetina band was a good move for her. I just wish the album also had "piel canela" on it. Does anybody know which album they recorded that song for???  |
