Review :
From the album title ({^No Es lo Mismo} means "it's not the same"), {$Alejandro Sanz} is showing what this effort is all about. At first, something that was already known: he is not the same as any other {\Latin} heartthrob like {$Chayanne}, {$Emmanuel}, or even {$Ricky Martin}. He composes and produces his own material and, although not a great singer, he's a superb guitar player. Second, this album is not the same as any other {\Latin} one. {$Sanz} affords various topics (like social issues and commitment) not only related to love, dancing, and having a good time (probably the most common Latin stereotype). Third, this work (his first studio album since 2000's {^El Alma al Aire}) is quite different from all the previous ones. For example in {&"Try to Save Your S'ong"} he tries to rap, and gets some help from {$GQ} in it. To his classic sound ({\Latin} {\ballads} plus {\flamenco}), he adds {\hip-hop}, {\bolero}, and {\son} flavors. The problem is that not all the things melt together smoothly. Things are more familiar in songs like {&"He Sido Tan Feliz Contigo"} or {&"Eso,"} in which he seems to be more comfortable. Although it's not a masterpiece, it's a pretty good album for {\Latin pop} standards. [This version of {^No Es lo Mismo} includes bonus tracks.] ~ Iván Adaime, All Music Guide
