"RBD's live album #2



RBD: Live in Hollywood is the second live album for the group. A much better live album, although the first one (Tour Generacion RBD en vivo) and this one are very different. The first was in a much bigger stadium and you couldn't really focus on the music and the voices. This acoustic album is pretty good, although they should stop releasing them...2 live albums in less than a year? I know they want to get everything that there is from the fame that the group is having...but 2 is enough. The voices have improved and the way the music sounds is a lot better in most of the songs.



1. Tras de mi- Great opening song. Anahi's voice sounds a little weird but it's ok considering that 2 weeks earlier she had an operation in the throat and could not even talk. The chorus sounds pretty good. 5/5

2. Me voy- It's never been one of my favorite songs but it sounds ok. In the chorus you notice everybody's voices. 3/5

3. Nuestro amor- I have to say that the original song its much better. They tried to turn an up beat song to a slow song and that didn't really work. Christopher's voice has never been the best of the group but in this song he sounds really weird. I truly didn't like It but it still a good song. 3/5

4. Así soy yo- If you hear the original version you'll notice that the lyrics are totally different, I mean, they are the same but in different order. Anahí had a mess and forgot most of the song but it turned out to be better than the original. The chorus was pretty cool with the gospel chorus. And although Anahi forgot the lyrics she handled it pretty well. At some point in the song she says: "I always forget the song's lyrics!" and at the end "I am zero problems and have a great ass". She is crazy and thanks to that, this song is good. 4/5

5. Que fue del amor- In the original CD, I believe this song was the one that you couldn't get out of your mind specially the "que fue del amor que un dia nos unio?". Great live song. Christian, Maite and Poncho sing it really well. 5/5

6. A tu lado- Worst song in the original CD, in this CD, THE BEST. Wow, I was completely shocked. When you here it you can imagine the guys sing in it right next to you. The boys sing it beautifully. 5/5

7. No pares- the only new track of the album. The lyrics are simple but good. It has a great message: "Never stop dreaming, don't be afraid of flying, live your life". Dulce sings it alone and she demonstrates why is she one of the most important voices of the group. 5/5

8. Fuera- They turned a rock song into a "salsa" song with some other sounds. It's a pretty good song but I think I prefer the more rockish version. 4/5

9. Solo para ti- Too up beat. It's a nice song but the original it's much much better. 3/5

10. Este corazón -I have love this song so no matter how you put it I'll always like it. I think the original version is better but still it's one of the best songs of the CD. 5/5

11. Aun hay algo- BEUTIFULL!! The violins sound great. They slowed the song a little bit and it sounds more personal more like a ballad. 5/5

12. Que hay detrás- Good but not great. In the chorus, the gospel sounds super. The original version is better. 4/5

13. Feliz cumpleaños- Crazy song. I like it but it is not the song that you'll remember from this album. 4/5

14. Solo quedate en silencio (Hollywood version)- It's RBD's greastest hit so they had to sing it. It's an Studio version of the song but acoustic. It's good. If you compare the original one to this one, you will like them both but they are completely different. 5/5

15. No pares (Studio version)- The live version it's much better. This one is more upbeat. 3/5"
