Album Description
Available in:
ThalÃa is the seventh studio album and second eponymous album by Mexican singer ThalÃa. It was released on 21 May 2002 by EMI Latin. The follow-up to her successful sixth studio album, Arrasando (1999), the album sees Thalia collaborating with previous producers Emilio Estéfan, Jr. and Cory Rooney, while working for the first time with Estéfano, Julio C. Reyes and Steve Morales. ThalÃa incorporates strong elements of pop rock, while also having Latin pop influences. Lyrically, the album touches on themes of self-empowerment and individuality. It also features two covers and a new version of an old Latin classic.
The album received generally positive reviews from music critics, who praised the album and indicating that ThalÃa has found her sound. Four singles were released from the album: the lead single "Tú y Yo" became a hit in ThalÃa's music career peaking at number-one on the Billboard's Hot Latin Tracks. The second single "No me enseñaste" was another success on the Hot Latin Tracks chart, while the third single "¿A quién le importa?" was another top-ten hit on the same chart. The album went straight to number one, spending six consecutive weeks on Billboard's Top Latin Album Chart and Top Latin Pop Albums. It also reached the top of the Mexican chart and was certified Gold.
ThalÃa is a collection of ten tracks in Spanish, mostly penned by Colombian songwriter Estéfano, who co-wrote and co-produced several of them with collaborator Julio C. Reyes, and three others in English, which was envisioned as her introduction to that language's market. As noted by Leila Cobo of Billboard, the album "has far more aggressive rock undertones than its namesake's previous material, edgier arrangements that often rely on crunchy guitars, and a generally relaxed feel that belies the nine months of work that went into it." She also stated that ThalÃa "is a gutsy album, flush with personality and hooks." Joey Guerra noted that lyrically, the album "has a lock on independent-woman anthems," which he said that "t's a familiar ground for Thalia, who explored similar themes on 1997's Amor a la Mexicana and 1999's Arrasando." The opening track, "Tú y Yo" ("You and I"), was considered a "guitar-based pop rock track," while "Asà Es el Destino" ("Such is the Fate") talks about destiny and how two people are mean to be. "En la Fiesta Mando Yo" ("At the Party I'm the Boss") was considered a dance and ska-tinged track, with accordion accompaniment, about girl-power, while "No me enseñaste" ("You Didn't Teach Me") was defined as a sentimental rock ballad that "highlights a voice with range and pathos."
The fifth track, "Y Seguir" ("And Go On"), is another ballad, and was conceived after a long conversation in which ThalÃa told Estéfano that in love, one leaves pieces of oneself behind, only to have to turn around, pick those pieces up, and go on." The sixth track "¿A Quién Le Importa?" ("Who Cares?") is a cover of the Alaska y Dinarama's 1986 hit and lyrically is "a devil-may-care ode to individuality." ThalÃa commented that the song reflected what she was going through at the time and called it "an anthem of freedom." "Vueltas en el Aire" ("Circles Around the Air") was named a "glittering destined to fill dance floors," while "Heridas en el Alma" ("Wounds in the Soul") talks about the fear of not overcoming someone. "La Loca" ("The Crazy Girl") is a "smorgasbord of rock, cumbia, and rap rhythms, having Los Rabanes lead singer Emilio Regueira rapping. The album also features two versions of the song "The Mexican 2002", a remake of the song "The Mexican", one in Spanish and other in English, with the former featuring background vocals by Marc Anthony. It also features a "yearning ballad" in English, "Closer to You", and another cover: a dance version of Dead or Alive's hit "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)", which was noted for ThalÃa "purring like a sex kitten." In some editions, a grupera version of "Tú y Yo" featuring Kumbia Kings was included, as well as an acoustic version
