It is but is missing an universal appeal, it’s a track record but not as a single material. It did zero impact.

I was mad about how simple the production was but when I listen to it in the context of La Fuerza I get the vision and it truly is Beautiful, she sounds so vulnerable in it. I apologize for my hate on Somos Nada when it was released as a second single, I was just mad because I knew that spot should have been for Santo.

I agree about the melody that's why SN was never supposed to be a hit, BUT the lyrics are very emotional in combination with Christina's powerful vocals... which is why it's a great ballad IMO.bionicDied4UrSins wrote: ↑Fri Jun 03, 2022 10:08 pm the thing with Somos Nada is that it lacked any sort of a distinguishable melody. successful ballads are the ones you can sing along to.
it high-key reminds me of Gaga's Hold My Hand.
and that's why it's easily the worst track on this project.

Her vocals sound like they were recorded through a plastic pipe. I cannot listen to it.
Ugh this is becoming my truth as well... It's just something about the way she sings in Spanish !! & The producers came to PRODUCE for a legend!BYC wrote: ↑Sat Jun 04, 2022 10:47 amThis music is so good. I said it before and some of you got pressed but I mean it. If Christina just decides to keep recording spanish music, I would fully support it. I don’t speak the language but everything sounds so pleasing to me. Top notch vocals and production.

I wish Christina had done the EPs with Bionic as there’s multiple EPs on that and they would work better separately then consolidate for a vinyl. Experimental (Birds of Prey, Bobblehead, Bionic), Commercial (Woohoo, Glam, Not Myself Tonight) and the Ballads (I Am, Lift Me Up, All I Need). The first Spanish EP was experimental, the second one was Easy Listening, Commercial Pop and I’m wondering what the overall sound will be for the third one.
Or a ballads vs uptempo EPs.NewAgenda wrote: ↑Sun Jun 05, 2022 10:52 pm I wish Christina had done the EPs with Bionic as there’s multiple EPs on that and they would work better separately then consolidate for a vinyl.

I could be wrong, but didn't she mention somewhere that Pa Mis Muchachas was one of the first songs she recorded for the sessions?
She prob got more comfortable as they recorded more/hung out more with the whole production/writing/music team
I only have a couple minor gripes with the album, like including both the solo and duet versions of cuando me dé la gana, but this is on par as some of her best work and all this 20+ years into her career.
Stellar production while tackling a variety of genres and still pop-friendly. I feel she’s even saving the best for last with La Luz.

It's true. They've put this same weird effect on her vocals on a number of songs post-Bionic. It sounds almost metallic. I first noticed it on Bland Page. More recently I think it's the most obvious on a "A Million Dreams."therightman wrote: ↑Sat Jun 04, 2022 7:06 amHer vocals sound like they were recorded through a plastic pipe. I cannot listen to it.
Somos Nada live is beautiful.
