Recorded in Los Angeles, CA, and co-produced by
rock en español expert
Gustavo Santaolalla, the second album by Grammy-winning
Juanes, highly anticipated following the release of its first single,
"A Dios Le Pido," once again delivers his awarded fusion of
urban,
rock, and Latin American rhythms. A spiritual
folk-rock song opens this 12-track record, followed by the romantic mid-tempo
"Es por Ti" and the
Latin pop ballads "Un Día Normal" and
"La Unica." Colombian
Juanes (born
Juan Esteban Aristizabal) goes local with
"Luna," a
pop-oriented
vallenato, the most popular traditional rhythm from his native country. After the orchestrated
ballad "Dia Lejano," the album's
rock en español side emerges with
"Mala Gente" and
"Fotografía," recorded along with
Nelly Furtado.
Un Día Normal ends with the
Latin dance-pop of
"La Noche." ~Drago Bonacich, All Music Guide
