"David Bustamante was the runner-up in Spain's "Operacion Triunfo" (their answer to Pop Idol/American Idol) and this is his debut CD. Don't expect anything bold or different, just some catchy Latin-flavoured pop (El Aire Que Me Das, No Soy Un Superman, Cantabria and Por Un Beso de tu Boca) and some rather nice ballads like "La Magia del Corazon" and "Duda de Amor". His duet with a fellow contestant on "Dos Hombres y Un Destino" is also a highlight. Yes it's pop, but good quality pop that stands up to repeated listening."
