"Absoultely.."Bachata Rosa" in Portugese. It is amazing to hear JLG sing in Portugese his most famous songs. The songs are more or less the same except made different because they are in Portugese, which is just as beautiful a language if not more so that Spanish. The music is even improved in spots, for example one of my fav all time JLG songs "La bilirubina" has a little more African flavor and extended parts in the middle of the song. Bachata Rosa in spanish is one of the best albums of all time, in Portugese it's even more of a gem and if JLG did this on more of his albums, wow! Too bad this goes for damn near $40~!! I'm kicking myself in the ass cuz I had and re sold it thinking i'll be able to get it ANYTIME!! Not the case and I'm kicking myself! A must have album for any fan of JLG and Latin music in general. Puts to shame all these so called "Latin" artist who think the music they are making is somehow "revolutionary." Yeah right, they are really a bunch of payasos! You know who you are, Shakira, Daddy Yankee, J Lo

OOPS did I mention names?? They are not the only ones the list goes on and on and on. Take a cue from the genius of El Malecon!!"

The only way to make Bachata Rosa a better CD
