Marc Anthony comes on like a suave, less jumpy alternative to Ricky Martin on this mostly English-language album. Having already introduced itself to the pop mainstream with the salsa-tinged single "I Need to Know," Marc Anthony offers several other obvious crossover hits, ranging from the Rodney Jerkins-produced Latin-funk fusion of "She's Been Good to Me" to the lovelorn midtempo ballad "When I Dream at Night." However, Anthony's agreeably keening voice is too often applied to the sort of colorless adult-contemporary material typical of Michael Bolton and Mariah Carey mainstay Walter Afansieff, who produces or coproduces three tracks here. The result is often more interesting in sociological terms--Anthony fans who, like the star, were born to Latino parents in America are as sure to eat this disc up as his new Caucasian admirers--than in musical ones. Ain't that America? --Rickey Wright

Customer Reviews

Most passionate unique Latin sensibility.
This album was long over due for Marc Anthony, who until now has resisted the lure of the american pop scene. His music has always been authentic and steadfastly traditional, garnering respect from salsa aficionados. The release of this first English-speaking album is huge to say the least. He is not just another crossover by any means. The only thing he shares with fellow Latin recording artist Ricky Martin and Jennifer Lopez is a similar cultural heritage. Anthony is a passionate singer and it shows in his music, both english and spanish. This album is proof of that. He melded his urban American upbringing with his Puerto Rican roots to bring us a unique Latin sensibility. So if you like music that can make you move your feet, and touch your heart in a unique passionate way, here it is. Hold on to your seat for a ride you won't soon forget. A must have CD. To make your experience even better I recomend his first two albums, Otra Nota and Todo a Su Tiempo, which went platinum.

THE VOICE OF AN ANGEL........THE SALSA KING!
I'd like to start by saying that Marc Anthony doesn't have an "alright" voice. He has one of the most beautiful voices in music. He has a big range and can hold a note forever. His tenor is awesome and the emotion and passion he puts in his music is unbelievable. "I Need To Know" isn't the only hit on this album. Every single song is beautiful. I've been listening to his salsa records for 7 years now and as years go by his talent grows. Every single song this man has sung is excellent and he's the man. He's a very sweet, humble person and I'm definitely a die hard fan. I'd also like to say that I wasn't at all shocked that this album was such a hit. I didn't expect any less from the "King of Salsa", and now pop. That's right, POP. Because this album is off the hook. Better than Ricky's and Enrique's put together. The lyrics to his music are touching and his voice is better than both of these men. I've been fortunate enough to attend 6 of Marc's concerts, including the msg performance recently on HBO, and as always he's put on excellent shows. His energy is unbelievable and is without a doubt the best performer I've ever seen. "Marc es un orgullo latino, y Puerto Rico lo adora".

Marc Anthony is simply PHENOMENAL!

A Piece of Treasure!
I was at Borders listening to many of the new releases and then I just casually sampled this album. Man I was blown away by this! Marc Anthony has got a vocals that are powerful but yet sincere and heartfelt...The production is solid. This is an album that is very complete...that is just no necessity to skip any tracks! I was so excited about the discovery of this gem that I told some of my friends about it immediately.
