The promo single contains the English and Spanish versions that are available on Martin's triple-platinum self-titled album, as well as the requisite Spanglish version. If you listen in context, you'll realize this track sounds a lot like a classic Jon Secada song logical enough, since that multi-talented artist co-wrote and co-produced it, along with George riega and Robl Rosa. Also in that camp is Emilio Estefan who served as executive producer. A stunning follow-up, with all the reasons In the world to become Martin's second English-language chart-topper, provided that C2 releases a commercial single. Utterly breathtaking.

"She's All I Ever Had" Ricky Martin There was no doubt that this delectable anthemic ballad was the one to go with as the second single from "Ricky Martin." "Livin" La Vida Loca" certainly fulfilled the hype with a deserved five-week run at the top of The BillboardKot 100, and this follow-up will do nothing but advance Martin's place not only as the leading pop male vocalist of the day but as a valid phenomenon. "She's All I Ever Had" absolutely succeeds on all levels. Lyrically, Martin narrates the tale of a man missing his woman, as he continues to live and breathe for her. Martin's vocal is tender and heartfelt, boasting a versatility that contrasts nicely with "La Vida," while the lush production is savvy Florida Today wires MODERN ROCK 1 "Scar Tissue" Red Hot Chili Peppers 2.

While he may not possess finesse, Pryor's raw co-medic genius, or Foxx's grit, Rock has a Soundtrack Eyes Wide Shut various artists Few directors are as involved and invested in the musical details of their films as was the late genius Stanley Kubrick.

The scores to his "2001: A Space Odyssey," "A Clockwork Orange and "The Shining," in particular, epitomize the symbiosis between sound and picture. The director's highly heralded swan song, "Eyes Wide Shut," lives up to its predecessors in delighting the listener with a combination of well-chosen classical pieces, jazz and pop oddballs, and specially commissioned works that shine for their originality and eclecticism. In the latter category, the work of British composer Jocelyn Pook appears here as a revelation-minimalist, exotic, rich and soul-stirring. Other highlights include a remix of Chris Isaak's 1995 cut "Baby Did a Bad Bad a haunting performance of Liszt's "Grey Clouds" by pianist Dominic Harlan; lighter pieces such as the Oscar Peterson Trio's rendition of Ellington's "I Got It Bad (And That Ain't Good)," Brad Mehldhau's take on "Blame It on My Youth," and a breezy instrumental reworking of "Strangers in the Night" by the Peter Hughes Orchestra; and Harlan's interpretation of "Musica Ricercata, II" by Gyvrgy Li- IS CHRIS ROCK CLUB DANCE MUSIC 1.

As a parodist, Rock shines on the "Brown Sugar" sendup "Snowflake," which turns the tables on the white-guyblack-girl theme, and on "No Sex," a skewering of Baz Luhrmann's impossibly successful "Everybody's Free (To "WEIRD AL" YANKOV1C Running With Scissors "Weird AP Yankovlc Twenty years after spoofing "My Sharona" with "My Bologna," "Weird AI" Yankovic still is getting laughs with novelty songs.

Funny how they're sometimes more entertaining than the originals. I'll take "Pretty Fly for a Rabbi" any day over The Offspring's "Pretty Fly (For a White Guy)." Sample refrain: "How ya doin' Bernie? Oy vey, oy vey!" Now that's chutzpah. And Yankovic continues to mine yucks at the expense of the overweight (remember this time remaking "Zoot Suit Riot" into "Grapefruit Diet." Also inspired is "Jerry Springer," a dead-on parody of "One Week" by the Barenaked Ladies. Of course, a little of this goes a long way and the original songs on Running With Scissors, Yankovic's 10th album, aren't nearly as clever. But his polka medley (sampling Marilyn Manson AND Hanson, among others) is first-rate kitsch.
