Editorial Review:
Italian, Spanish, or English: Laura Pausini's edgy, electric vocals are some of the most vibrant in contemporary pop. The endearing diva has been around for more than a decade, but the 2004 disc Escucha found her enjoying a newfound musical independence and worldwide success. Yo Canto is a long-brewing project dear to Pausini's heart: a collection of Italian pop covers spanning her lifetime. As with most of Pausini's releases, the disc is available in Italian and in Spanish. Yo Canto veers from dramatic balladry to fiery rock moments, anchored by Pausini's swooping, powerful vocal work. Several songs will be unfamiliar to fans outside of Italy, but it hardly matters. Pausini makes every moment her own, from the triumphant title track to the bittersweet "Escribeme." She's joined by international rock star Juanes during the lovely, lilting "Mi Libre Cancion." And fellow Italian pop idol Tiziano Ferro joins in for a new take on his brooding 2003 hit, "No Me Lo Puedo Explicar." There are many moments of sublime loveliness here. In other words, just another day in the musical life of Pausini. --Joey Guerra

Rating:  - Wonderful
I love Laura's work. She is so passionate, so in the moment. She is awesome.
Rating:  - Io Canto: not a masterpiece, but a nice album
I'll make no secret of it: I love Laura Pausini. I own most of her albums. My favorite is Resta in Ascolto. Io Canto is a collection of songs Laura admires, from artists such as Zucchero, Riccardo Cocciante, Claudio Baglioni and Biagio Antonacci. Although certainly not a masterpiece (and pretty boring at times), Io Canto has its moments, like "Come il sole all'improvviso", and "Il mio canto libero", a duet with Juanes. These two tracks alone may be worth the price of the CD. But if you are looking ... Read More
Rating: - Powerful Voice
I first heard Laura Pausini sing with Andrea Bocelli on his PBS special in Tuscany. Strong vocals - pop sound, great for dancing and getting you into a lively mood. Love it.
Rating: - Laura's Latest
As below, I to am a Laura Pausini fan, just see my listmania. I listen to Laura only in Italian, not Spanish. If your new to Laura and want her newest songs/albums then this is where to start and go backwards in acquiring her CD's. While this latest CD is not of new material, but of Laura's favorite Italian songs done in the past. She has carefully selected and took her time in assembling this collection to cover & still this CD is amazing and I can highly recommend it. I may skip a song or ... Read More
Rating: - once again a masterpiece
I adore Italian music and admire La Pausini in particular because I see her grow with every new album. Not quite a fan of her in her early years, I really started to appreciate her after hearing the beautiful" In Assenza di Te". Since then, each album is better than the previous, but I thought she would not be able to do better after "Resta in ascolto". "Io Canto" being a cover album, I consider it a real achievement that it has become such an excellent and personal piece of work. Great duets with Tiziano ... Read More
