| | Growing up, Iglesias had plans to perform in a different arena -- as a soccer player. An aspiring athlete, the young Spaniard was goalkeeper for the world famous Real Madrid team when a tragic car accident left him near death and paralyzed at nineteen. For three years he underwent the difficult process of recuperation. Fortunately, a physician's assistant in the hospital gave Iglesias a guitar to help lift his spirits. He started to write songs, and after recovering, he studied law before dedicating himself to music full-time. During the Seventies, Iglesias established himself as an international superstar. Before he even arrived on the American music scene with 1984's multi-platinum "1000 Bel Air Place" album, Iglesias has already earned a place in the Guinness Book of World Records for selling more albums in more different languages than any other artist in history. Since then, he's worked tirelessly as he's continued to both set records and test himself as an artist. His album, "My Life" is a compilation of his work throughout the years.

- 3 out of 5 stars - "From 1994, Willie Nelson's title track, Sting's 'Fragile' featuring Sting, a duet with Art Garfunkel on 'Let It Be Me' and Beethoven's 'Song Of Joy'. Sneer at your peril." |
