When I was younger (around 10) I never got what all the fuss about Enrique Iglesais was; fast forward a few years and I totally get it! He has definitely got hotter with age. I was never really interested in him until I won his greatest hits album in a competition a few years ago...and I fell in love with him. So much that I purchased the rest of his albums.

7 is the third British album from Enrique Iglesais. It was released in the United Kingdom in 2003. It reached number 13 in the British Album Charts. Amazon are currently selling the album from as little as £0.01 which I think is excellent value for money.

I like this album. It is quite different. It consists of pop as well as a 'rocky' sound. I would say that it is quite different compared to Enrique's albums. Songs which stand out for me include:

Not In Love - an upbeat song.

Be With You - a lovely slushy and emotional romantic ballad - Enrique at his best.

I don't like the fact that there are three versions of 'Addicted' on this album. The song itself is ok, but why we need to hear it three times on one CD is beyond me. Fair enough having the 'proper' version and a 'remix' but to have three versions...that's just silly.

I love Enrique...I don't know why it has taken me so long to take notice of him. He has a gorgeous voice (and face!) and all his songs are really emotional. He really puts his all into his songs, especially the romantic one. He's quite a slushy guy really...but you gotta love him.

I enjoy listening to the lyrics as they are really cleverly put together; lots of rhymes. Enrique has written a lot of the songs on here; he has a wonderful way with words. They are certainly thought-provoking, and the songs are usually about things everyone can connect to.

Thanks for reading!
