Julio Iglesias

Ma vie : mes plus grands succès

Description

The only true crooner worthy of the name. His first name alone is enough to make the ladies shiver. Julio. His velvety voice, with that cracking tremolo, will do the rest. Some have had the privilege of singing with him like Diana Ross, whose duet with Julio, "All Of You," can be found on this double CD, the singer's Spanish accent making its effect on this sweet ballad in English. The other singer sharing the mic here is Dolly Parton, the queen of country. Their "When You Tell Me That You Love Me" is not part of the genre's repertoire but the song allows us to discover Julio in a somewhat unusual domain. "To All The Girls I've Loved Before" with Willie Nelson, another notable duet from this collection of 41 carefully selected tracks, allows for a delightful vocal sparring. Our international crooner also crosses paths with Stevie Wonder, who composed "My Love" especially for him, and Sting, perfectly at ease in the sentimental register of "Fragile" where he also plays the Spanish guitar. To complete the list of collaborations, let's add "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes" with All 4 One, a very beautiful song that seems tailor-made for Julio, or "Crazy," another composition by Willie Nelson. We won't forget the irresistible tangos, "La Cumparsita" at the forefront, the Latino sways with "Moralito" and its torrid accordion, and especially "Que Nadie Sepa Mi Sufrir," which the French public discovered under the title "La Foule" with Edith Piaf. Whether in Spanish, English, or French ("Vous les femmes," "Une nuit de carnaval"), listening to these two CDs allows us to understand why el señor Iglesias has his star on Hollywood Boulevard.
