Enrique

Description

Months before this major-label debut appeared, Enrique Iglesias scored a radio hit with the upbeat "Bailamos," thanks to its inclusion on the soundtrack of Wild Wild West . Enrique 's bid to firmly place the son of Julio in the mainstream pop firmament leads off with another midtempo dance-pop airwaves candidate, "Rhythm Divine." The track is typical of the rest that follow: highly wrought emotion recalled in a bed of glossy production that uses Latin syncopation as a reminder of the singer's roots while resolutely aiming for chart supremacy next to the likes of Celine Dion. Filled with pop romanticism--a duet with Whitney Houston, a cover of Bruce Springsteen's "Sad Eyes," and proclamations on the order of "I've seen the sun make love to the sea"-- Enrique is easy enough on the ears, and looks like a surefire hit. --Rickey Wright Songs are: Rhythm Divine, Be With You, I Have Always Loved You, Sad Eyes, I'm Your Man, Oyeme, Could I Have This Kiss Forever (with Whitney Houston), You're My #1, Alabao, Bailamos, Ritmo Total (Rhythm Divine), Mas Es Amar (Sad Eyes), No Puedo Mas Sin Ti (I'm Your Man).
