Thalía's self-titled 2003 effort was meant to be her English-language breakthrough, with guest shots from Fat Joe and photography that resembled a Spiegel ad, or maybe a Shania album. But it was too superficial, and there was little crossover appeal in the music itself. In contrast, 2005's Sexto Sentido is sung entirely en español , but for English versions of its three singles tacked onto the end. It's a straightforward Latin pop album, with the requisite balladry (the rousing "Olvídame" really shows off her voice), bouncy hybrid pop (the bandoneón-flavored opener "Amar Sin Ser Amada"), and exuberant anthems you can imagine the entire dancefloor singing along with ("Seducción", "No Me Voy a Quebrar." It also features "Amor Prohibido", Thalía's rendition of Selena's Tejano classic. (Thalía performed the song at an April 2005 concert event that remembered Selena on the ten-year anniversary of her murder.) Sexto Sentido features songwriting and production throughout from Estéfano, and Thalía vocals are buoyant, particularly on the biggest notes. "24000 Besos [24000 Baci]" is a highlight, a dizzyingly upbeat track where the catchiness isn't lost in translation. Like the majority of Sexto Sentido, it's slick and perfectly-arranged and performed with gusto. The album might not be the domestic breakthrough that Thalía's been hoping for since 2003, but it's a capable Latin pop effort that will get the crowd moving or the emotions flowing depending on the track. It's sure to appeal to her diehards. [The album was also issued in a bonus DVD edition.] ~ Johnny Loftus, Rovi
