  1. Hi Ruben! Hi class!

    Good post Ruben! As you know, I always give my opinion of the topic at the beginning of the comment, but I've prefered to give it in the question 4, as you tell us.

    Ex. 1| He was born in Ferrol, Spain; on June 15th 1973.

    Ex. 2| The Union, Pastora Soler, Marta Sánchez, Miguel Bosé, Shakira, among others. I've never thought he worked with them, I think they aren't the type singers he work with. I suppose he changed his style during these years of career.

    Ex. 3| Gimme the base; I think this is the best song from Carlos Jean. It was the third song of the project you have mentioned, Plan B, organised by the enterprise "Ballantines".

    Ex. 4| Although he is a GREAT composer, he is composing worse lately. I guess that it's because it had change of project (before, he was working with Ballantines, as I said before; now, he's working with Coca-Cola). We only have to compare one of the songs of "Plan B" with these. Even he isn't composing very well, he's still one of the best composers. Of course, this is my opinion.

    Bye class! Bye Ruben!
