"The beauty of this recording lies in its unrestrained expression and independence from any common international style. Ginesa is proud and self confident enough to create own Spanish music. She sings loudly, almost crying with her "dirty", mature voice. All songs are full of tension and strong emotion. Chicuelo is unquestioned virtuoso of Spanish guitar, playing perfectly, fresh and innovative. In the title song, Siento, Ginesa's voice and a perfect guitar are just thrilling. The guitar and most of other instruments are very well recorded. There are only very few minor negative remarks to the album. All songs maintain similar tension, hardly any room for emotions to rest. The voices could have been a bit more focused."
