Amen

Azucar Moreno's 10th disc, Amen, finds the pair wholly comfortable within the dance-pop realm, and they approach it with their usual dramatic gusto. Upbeat tracks such as "Mamma Mia," "Dale Que Dale," and the galloping title cut shimmer with life and love energy, while "San Jose" and "Viva la Vida" are irresistible calls to the dance floor. The mood is more contemplative on "El Amor Se Echa de Menos" and on "Amigo Mio," an affecting ode of support encouraging a gay friend to not be ashamed of his sexuality. --Joey Guerra
