...child, I spent a lot of time in Norbulingka, the Dalai Lama's summer palace in Lhasa. It was very pleasant there, and I was very happy. I remember everything was fresh, calm and peaceful.

In Thomas Crown, she leads with her sexuality, and the chemistry she ignites...
Overall, however, Marc Anthony is just a pleasant album by a singer who on past releases has proved himself capable of greatness. Still, after listening to this new pop CD, one looks forward to Anthony's recording more salsa albums, or at least an edgier brand of pop.
