Miguel Bose will be releasing a new album in March to celebrate his 30 years of musical career. He's redoing 30 of his greatest hits as duets with other very famous artists as Michael Stipes (from R.E.M.), Ricky Martin, Juanes, Julieta Venegas, Shakira (yeah, yet another collaboration for Shakira), Amaia Montero (of La Oreja De Van Gogh, Alaska (of Fangoria/Dinarama), Laura Pausini and Paulina Rubio. I can't wait to see the whole list of the 30 collaborators. I wouldn't be surprised if Sanz is also here. He's a very close friend of Bose's. Dolores from The Cranberries was planning to be part of this project too, but in the couldn't for calendaring issues. Bose is a very well respected artists in Europe and Latin America. Not anybody would be able to get all these artist for a project. I can't wait to have this album!!! His one of my favorite artists ever and many of my other favorite Latin artists are here too!! I'm so excited!!

You're right, I don't know of any other Spanish speaking artist who would be able to get all of those names for one album. I'll be interested in checking this out when it comes out. Oh, and nice to have you back in the forum. It was starting to look like the J.Lo fanclub around here...LOL! :o |

Tracklist 5. Amante bandido (con Alaska) 6. Los chicos no lloran (con David Summers – Hombres G) 13. Morena mía (con Julieta Venegas) 18. Levanto el vuelo (con Mikel Erentxun) These sound awesome. "Amante bandido" and "morena mia" are my two favorite songs by him. I'm a HUGE fan of Mikel Erentxun, David Summers, and of course Julieta. I'm starting to get excited about this album. |

Ok, I remember who this guy is now.  He had some techno-ish song that I liked. |

Thanks for the tracklist!! I thought it was going to be all new interpretations... but it seems that they're including some old duets too. The song with Noa already exists from some years ago. The one with Rafa Sanchez is also from the early 90s or so and already appeared in a Bose CD. I love that song!! So good! And Carlos Berlanga died in 2002. It's either and old duet or something recorded just before he passed away. Carlos' death was very felt by the artistic world in Spain. He was a very popular and loved singer/songwriter. Berlanga founded Alaska Y Dinarama back in the early 80s and the previous incarnations of this band like Kaka De Luxe and Alaska Y Los Pegamoides. He then had a solo career and wrote material for other artists too.
I wonder what tracks #29 and #30 will be. I can't wait to hear this!!!! I wonder if they change a lot the songs or if they stay very close to the originals.
I'm so glad there's a song with Mikel Erentxun!!
I remember listening to a lot of Hombres G in the 80s. I like David Summers' voice.
I'm surprised there's not an old or new duet with Ana Torroja!
I wonder which will be the first single....

I remember Thalia sending a press release when the guy who wrote that song died a couple of years ago. She said his songs had influenced her a lot during the 80's. As for the first single, it will probably be the one with Shakira or Ricky Martin so that it gets A LOT of attention when the album is released. |

Yeah, Carlos Berlanga together with Nacho Canut wrote Ni Tu Ni Nadie and A Quien Le Importa.
Yes, I guess he'll go for a currently big artist for the first single.

The name of the album has now been revealed: "Papito"
The press release now says that the album brings 15 tracks. Not 30 as people thought initially because of the celebration of 30 years of career. Alejandro Sanz is now confirmed as one of the participants as well as the previously confirmed Shakira, Ricky Martin, Paulina Rubio, Julieta Venegas and Amaia Montero.
The first single is "Nena" with Paulina.

Ok, I found the explanation of the confusion regarding the track list. There's two versions of the album: A 1-cd format and a 2-cd format. The 1-cd version has 15 duets: 14 of remakes of previous greatest hits with currently popular latin super stars plus a new duet with Alejandro Sanz. The 2-cd version includes an extra CD with 4 other new duets with I don't know whom yet plus 11 more (some hard to find) duets that had already been released throughout the years. This explains a previous list that appeared on this thread that had old duets that I knew had already been made years ago.

This came out this week. I'm still listening to it. It's hard to get used to new version of such classics or basically perfect songs, but I have to give it some more listenings to get used to the new arrangements and voices.
I like what Shakira brings to her duet. The last part of the song is really cool.
Apparently, they didn't release the 2-CD version here in the U.S. :( I will have to look on ebay or order it from a store in Spain.
In a couple of weeks, I bet I'll have my favorites from this album.

Of the new duets, which is one is the absolute best? I don't think I will be buying the album, but I may download some of the better tracks onto my Ipod. The first single sucks a**, though.  |

I also really dug "morena mia" with Julieta Venegas. I didn't care too much for "amante bandido" with Alaska though. I think the 98' version by himself is much better.
I have yet to hear what he recorded with Mikel Erentxun, Dave Summers, Amaia Montero, Alejandro Sanz, & Ricky Martin. Are those any good? |

Yeah, Louie, the song with Shakira ended up being really good. Good version and she does a great job. I like also the one with Julieta. The one with Alaska too.... you know... I've been a big fan of hers since the early 80s. :) Actually the ones with Amaia, Ricky Martin and Juanes haven't done much for me. I need to maybe listen to them more. Ricky's voice sound too similar to Miguel's so you don't really feel a duet there. My nice surprise was to enjoy the duets with the singers I had never heard about like Leonor Watling, Ivette Sangalo, Bimba Bose and Sasha Gokol. Actually, I knew who Sasha was, but I didn't know she was still singing. The one with Mikel comes on the second disc (from the special edition). It's a live version I think from the Directo '90 Bose album. The one with Alejandro Sanz is nice, but not too commercial. It takes a couple of listenings, but it's a nice song, but I don't see it becoming a hit. Disc 2 basically has duets that Bose has done in the past so not new duets like Disc 1.
