"Las Ketchup."
"This is a great cd by a very good latin girl band 10/10 They are the new ABBA."
"Hailed as a new macarena in Europe and elsewhere, Pilar, Lola, and Lucia, the trio's members, all daughters of famed Spanish flamenco guitarist, Tomate, have produced a benign, catchy, Euro pop CD that at times, like a Spanish paella, combines Latin-pop, rumba, reggae-drum beats, and hiphop (even the Sugarhill Rappers' Delight 1979 chorus)."
"On the other hand, there's something sinful and at the same time innocent in their music and image -a perfect hook for men :-) That's why I think some people are even saying that the tomato with the leg is like a 6, and that they're therefore agreeing with the Devil (666, you know). Although the target market is the world of teens, their music and lyrics are rather good than bad -I guess that Britney Spears would feel some jealousy faced to this trio of Spanish girls (not because of their money, of course ;-)). The flamenco, hip-hop, pop, salsa and jazzy influences make of this CD a pretty decent piece of blended (or eclectic?). "Aserejé", even if it took for their clip the same formula than "La Macarena" (and event if it somewhat reminds me Papa Levante's "Me Pongo Colorada"), is a sparkling song and an instant hit. After that song, they use a lot of other tricks to cacth their audience: making fun of stupid and ridicule guys ("Krapuleo"), using a lot of irony in "Lanzame Los Trastos, Baby", and even being clever and musically audacious in "Sevillanas Pink" (what a song!"
"The three sisters, Lola, Lucía and Pilar decided to name themselves "Las Ketchup" as homage to their flamenco-guitarist father, Juan Muñoz, whose nickname is "El Tomate." The song, in spite of having a refrain that is neither Spanish, English, Esperanto or any other language, is extremely contagious and gets your body moving of its own will. Other songs in the Ketchup album include "Kusha las Playas" which is an intelligent mix of acoustic pop and rumba and is even reminiscent of certain Jamaican rhythms. "Lánzame los trastos, Baby" is a complicated fusion of reggae, rap and folk Andalusian song."

It's Marc at his absolute best, until just after the 3:00 minute mark, where they start with the group of background singers saying, "pa' que nunca se vallas." I don't like the "tickle" lyric in DIME SI NO ES VERDAD, and the feathering of his voice in CAUTIVO DE ESTE AMOR, but those are just personal things. If you are just getting turned on to Marc, PLEASE make sure and check out his first 3 albums (Otra Nota, Todo A Su Tiempo, and Contra La Corriente)."

Can there ever have been such a decade, so endlessly discussed, pored over and analysed? We see it as a period of unparalleled hedonism, quite unlike any other, with Bright Young Things seemingly engaged in a perpetual day-and-night party, fuelled by bathtub gin and dancing wantonly to the bright, snappy rhythms of jazz. F. Scott Fitzgerald defined the era as the 'Jazz Age', publishing his novel 'The Great Gatsby' in 1926, a key text for the times, encapsulating the headlong but ultimately self-destructive mood of the moment, what one writer called 'the greatest, gaudiest spree in history'.
