Disco de Maná: “Arde el Cielo”

The track listing is wrong, the new bonus songs are not on the video.

Actual Track Listing:

1. Dejame Entrar

2. Manda Una Senal

3. Labios Compartidos

4. Bendita tu Luz

5. Vivir Sin Aire

6. Donde Jugaran Los Ninos

7. Mariposa Traicionera

8. El Rey

9. No ha Parado de Llover

10. El Muelle de San Blas

11. Rayando el Sol

12. Clavado en un Bar

The good:

Mana is awesome, need I say more? This is a great collection of Mana's greatest hits. I especially like the version of Reyando El Sol.

Things that could have been better:

1. Only three songs from Amar es Combatir with most of the songs from previous albums and therefore with live versions available elsewhere.

2. NO subtitles. I don't speak spanish very well so I Loved it how on Acceso Total I was able to watch it with Spanish subtitles (to help me learn the words better) and with English subtitles (to help me figure out what it all means). None of that here.

3. No bonus materal at all. This is just songs from the conert.

Don't get me wrong here..I think Mana is 1 of the best bands in the world; however, i'm so sick of record companys releasing these cd/dvd albums and cutting the fans short on the # of songs from the concert...The album and the songs are great, but i was anxious to hear some of the newer songs live and didn't get the chance on this album...Some yes, but what about "Tu me Salvaste", "Relax", Ojala que podria borrarte", etc.....Even older songs, like "Hechicera" and "Un lobo por tu amor".....

I love Mana's music and always will, but to the record companys..PLEASE DON'T CUT THE FANS SHORT!!!

The 2 new songs on the album are classic Mana...These guys just put out hit after hit....

What about Alex's drum solo as well or Sergio's guitar solo?

I saw the concert tour that the DVD was based off of. First, I must say that Mana' is awsome in concert. There are three things keeping this from being awsome. One, there was a great guitar solo in the concert that was left off the DVD. There was a cool part of the concert where Fher serenades a couple chicas on a couch in the middle of the stage - way cool, but left off the DVD. Lastly, there was an awsome 10 minute drum solo in the middle that was left off the DVD. So, that is a good DVD by a great band... but it could have been a Must-Have DVD.

I went to 2 of Mana's concerts in Houston. Both times were just electric. While the video put me in the same atmosphere, I feel the song choice could have been a little better. Much of the album reminded me too much of the Mana en vivo album with much of the song selection coming from that album (el rey, vivir sin aire, rayando el sol, and donde jugaran los ninos (loved that one though)). I do wish they had a couple of Alex songs from the Amar es Combatir album as well as other big hits. Maybe even show the Alex solo from PR. If you didnt go to the concert and bought this DVD you're totally missing out on some of the best stuff. If they came out with a part 2 with some of the other songs, I know it would be better than part one. Even the Accesso Total had a better song selection. Im a hardcore Mana fan but this DVD and Live album kinda disappointed.

The CD Arde el Cielo was packaged well and arrived as ordered. Mana is always great and merits listening and enjoyment.
