NATALIA LAFOURCADE - DE TODAS LAS FLORES / 2022 / SONY / SINGER-SONGWRITER, CHAMBER FOLK
9/10 www.theneedled...
Y'all know this is just my opinion, right?
I think we can all thank Natalia for improving Melón's Spanish pronunciation over the years. Buen trabajo, Antonio.
Post Melón
Bien *
don't forget about ROSALÍA
and rosalia is making it worse!
@@negred Rosalia in her latest album does a lot of spanglish and probably writes her lyrics high on weed since she is highly influenced by reggaeton and trap. Natalia on the other hand almost loves the spanish language and is very poetic on her lyrics or does covers with very poetic lyrics. Very different. Nevertheless Rosalia used to relate herself with the spanish language in a similar way to Natalia in her two previous albums but on Motomami she murders the language just like any reggaeton or latin trap artist would.
Si el álbum se hubiera llamado "De todos los melones" le pondrías un 10

Sí, carajo, sí
Un diez, sin duda. 😅
Anthony has graduated from gringo pronunciation to a “no sabo kid” pronunciation. Congrats !
real
He's come a long way.
He’s not a “gringuito de mierda” anymore ? I’m happy for him
A STRONG 9. This must be the closest a non English album has gotten to a 10. Gracias Don Melon
this is the closest anyone in general has ever gotten to a 10 lmfao
@@shirashirashirashirashir What do you mean? He's given several 10s at this point
@@nevermind9119 *without getting one, my bad
@@shirashirashirashirashir you good, that makes more sense haha
@@shirashirashirashirashir a lot of albums have got decent to strong 9s. Cave World got a strong 9
Natalia is underrated by a lot, her music through the years has grown a lot
In the anglo world? Yes
Not in the latam world, querido amigo
Underrated as in rated too low? Or underknown?
Her music aged like fine wine in a world surrounded by the pest called REGGAETON.
@@dougxvale you must be a boring person
Anthony I want to thank you for introducing me to Natalia's Musas record years ago. Since then I've studied Spanish, traveled through Mexico and have had so much value added to my life through these experiences. None of this would have happened had you not introduced me to her earlier albums. Thank you Anthony
This was special to read ❤️
You are very sweet 🤍
im glad to hear this brother.
good on you!
As a Mexican, I thank you for appreciating our culture!
Musas goes hard
Me alegra que te haya gustado, Melón
JAJAJJAJAJAA
Jajajjajajajajajaja
JAJAJJAJAJAJJAJA
Yo creo que fue peor cuando dijo que Diaz Ordás hizo lo correcto
This is a top 3 AOTY. One of the most beautiful and consistent Latin artist of this generation. Thank you, Anthony for bringing her into the spotlight for english speaking audiences.
Mi Natalia querida. Te amamos en todos lados.
3? I assumes there's other 2 Albums you like more from this year?
@@Frdnnd For me, 'The Forever Story' and 'Few good things' are better
@@Frdnnd i'm not sure about which ones, probably Black Country New Road. I just know that this won't leave the first three places.
@@00elias The Forever Story is all killer no filler imo. So far my #1 for the year but we got a little time left.
@@kylegonewild on god only possible contender is utopia
It’s so nice being a fan of an artist and watching them release even better music than the stuff you fell in love with
El mejor álbum de Natalia. Quedé tan impresionado por cada canción. Muerte es una de sus mejores en toda su discografía!
"Natalia's best album. I was so impressed by every song. Death is one of his(her) best in his(her)entire discography!"
“Muerte” es definitivamente mi favorita del álbum 🤍
English goofball
absolutely love “mi manera de querer.” bisexual jazz is my favorite genre of music
Glad to see you liked this album in addition to Silvana Estrada’s, Marchita.
For further context, it’s important to mention that this album is special considering it’s her first batch of original work since her album, Hasta La Raíz. In many ways, De Todas Las Flores serves as a response to Hasta La Raíz in addition to being a masterful reflection of character growth since the release of Hasta La Raíz in 2015.
Edit: First album of ONLY original works
I think you meant to say first album of ONLY original songs, as Musas actually had quite a few original tracks
@@leunam9130 Yes thank you bb
I just saw it played live and it was one of if not the best shows ive evrr seen the band was so talented, its a 10/10 live on everything, absolutely angelic
Muy buena review Fantano, lo único que se me hace raro es que pusieras *"DAME TU COSITA"* entre tus tracks favoritos, no creo que esa canción forme parte de este álbum. Y tampoco creo que era necesario que te pusieras a cantarla durante todo el video.
Translating it and realizing it’s another “nice review, but” shitpost makes it even more hilarious lmfaooo
te lo dijo el chombo
@@wama2002 looking at the ‘DAME TU COSITA’ instantly made me realize lmao
¡Bravo, Natalia! ¡Este álbum es honestamente único y simplemente increíble!
Anthony, you seriously impress me with your reviews. Your attention to detail is quite amazing and, even in a case like this, where possibly the lyrical content does not come easy, your exploration is fantastic. Besides this, I agree, this album is freaking awesome and sounds like life.
Arriba los artistas mexicanos!
mariachi starts playing
Los buenos nada más.
Asi es!
bonjour wee wee
@@siinxx7656 why mariachi? This is a chamber folk album
Que chingón que el melón reconozca el talento nacional
In my own personally fully formed opinion this is album of the year
based on the description blurb i was slightly hoping for a 10 but yknow what a 9 is still great and so is natalia
I started listening to this album with no expectations and i was soooo impressed. Definitely her best album so far. Made me cry a couple of times.
If this record was in english you would give it a 10
Seriously talking: this album is a glorious and I really love to see Mexican Artists this high on Melon's ratings
Viva México Cabrones
Stop being weird about race, so what that they’re Mexican? This mentality of “yea let’s go this race of artist got a high rating love to see my race get recognition as artists” is so weird.
@@bankbill9670 pues brother, a veces ver que tu pais o tu region, o hasta tus comunidades o simples gustos se den a conocer y sean reconocidos globalmente se siente padre
@@bankbill9670 Mexican is a nationality not a race. There's a lot of good music from Mexico that gets overlooked so when someone as big as Fantano puts the spotlight on a record like this while also giving it a strong 9 is pretty cool to see.
@@bankbill9670 let people be proud dude you're the only one making it weird
@@bankbill9670 it’s just a joke bro
I've been a fan of Natalia since the beginning. From her first very "poppy" album to now. She is, without a doubt, a genius. Incredible musician, incredible writer, beautiful voice and a beautiful person inside and out. She has matured and evolved over the years and we have all benefitted from it.
Indeed, It is a great album. Walking through the forest at dusk while listening to some of the songs of this album really made me really feel it. One of the best vibes I've ever had.
Only thing I'll disagree with Melon for this one is the closer part. For me its one of the most powerful moments, and to be honest, the one that resonated with me the most. Lost my grandpa recently and its been really fucking hard. Que te vaya bonito Nicolás, put words to the feelings that I couldn't really seem to materialize/verbalize in my own grief. A beautiful song that while sad, gives you hope and is that kind of light at the end of the tunnel. Easy 10 for me overall. Natalia es una crack. And also thanks to Mr. Melon for giving her the spotlight she deserves outside of Latin America, cus she's considered a goat here by most.
Agreed!! The hushed vocal refrains when she says Que Te Vaya Bonito Nicolas gave me spine tingling chills, one of my favourite moments on any album all year 💯💯
Que Te Vaya Bonito Nicolás joined a very exclusive club of songs that made me cry. Not songs I've cried to, but songs that made me cry
"No tengas miedo de cruzar la puerta
Pues los dioses, los maestros de esta tierra
Reclamaron a este mundo tu presencia"
Esa parte me destrozo , llore como un bebe la primera vez y hoy también
Si esto se hubiera titulado "Para chulo todas las flores" habría sacado un 10.
"If it was titled "To Pimp the Flowers" it would have gotten a 10."
Ur name is jack brown and u got the translation wrong stop tryna speak a language u don’t speak or be a race that ur not 😂
@@bankbill9670 ñ
@@bankbill9670 u don't even get the joke tho
@@bankbill9670 ignorant ass comment; multiple races speak Spanish.
Thanks for introducing me to something new Melon. I'm usually on your channel for hip hop but I listened to this album based on this review and I already love it a lot.
I used to be a total hiphop head until about a year ago and Melon has been GREAT for branching out into different genres
I love how the entire record sounds like a group of musicians have sat down in a farmhouse somewhere in rural Mexico. Each playing an old, dusty instrument. The piano sounds so cold, in a very authentic, Latin way. And Dios Mio, the backing vocals and jingles are so incredibly gorgeous. This album felt like food for the soul from the first listen, and still does.
Honestly, I'd have swapped the spellling record for this for 10/10. Like the title track alone, nothing makes me feel a beautiful melancholy like this track does. Maria La Cuandera is also so catchy. I also think the "less consequential" bits are negative spaces that work pretty nicely as buffer between the (often) pretty heavy tracks they buffer. But, both are very good records, but this is definitely the beefiest strongest 9/10 I've ever seen for sure. Jesus Christ. What an album
Agreed!
Natalia would have been the first non-English artist to score a 10
Please keep doing reviews like this of content outside of many people's usual comfort zones. This is what I want to see.
Never heard of this artist. Huge fan now. Thanks Anthony!
Been following Natalia since her debut back in 2003. Back when MTV Latino played MUSIC.
Check our Natalia's other songs "En el 2000" and "Hasta la raíz" you won't be disappointed
Album of The Year 2022
TheNeedleDrop
I think it might be her best record to date. It goes back to the raw, original songrwriting of Hasta la Raiz, but with some gained sound pallet from the four hommage albums in between. I love how the songs are a bit longer, allowing their moods to shift before ending. I love it. I love her. I love you! All of you!
As a spanish listener of music I don't know more than 5 singers that sing in this language so I'm so glad that you are showing those artist like Silvana Estrada or the author of this album, now I can find more good spanish music!
i disagree about the closer's songwriting, it was so touching and such a heartwrenching tribute to her late nephew i couldn't help but shed some tears. Something about the line "Don't be afraid to walk through the door," which is what I can only assume to be the doors/gates to heaven, is simply so beautiful.
Estoy contento con el 9, pero… ¡Llévame viento es una de las mejores canciones!
I absolutely adore Natalia and her entire band. I was introduced to them via Tiny Desk and you could see how well she and her band work together and just feel familiar in a family way. I was so happy to see you review her work. Thank you so much for highlighting so many good artists that might otherwise not be known by us here in America.
I remember finding Natalia's music through Anthony's Musas II review right before I went to Spain for the first time and listened to it loads while I stayed there for a month because I loved it so much. I fell in love with her music and the country. Now I live here and speak Spanish and her music hits so much harder, and this album is just covered in poetry. Her music, the poetry of Lorca, and the prose of Juan Rulfo made me want to learn Spanish and let me tell you it is fucking worth it when you hear albums like this.
I’ve never heard anything like this album until I discovered it on rym…what a mesmerizing masterpiece! Any recommendations for music that sounds similar to this? Music that transcends the language barrier 🎶
Un canto por México vol 1, musas vol 1& 2 by her are also really worth checking out, also Marchita by Silvana Estrada
Another pretty cool singer songwriter record that came out recently was mareas by valeria jasso
Not similar to this, but Suave Pendiente by Niños Del Cerro transcends any language barrier. Just amazing
Silvana Estrada's "Marchita" is another album from a Mexican artist that is VERY very good. Fantano also gave that album a 9 earlier this year.
This album drinks a lot from singer like Mercedes sosa, chavela Vargas, Agustín laje.
A 9/10 on my birthday ?!?!? This is a slay
certified slay moment happy bday gang
yoooo happy birthday!!
happy birthday i hope you get socks
Happy birthday dawg
Feliz Compleannos
please review the kglw albums im really struggling with everyone asking my opinion on it
Was legit heavily anticipating a ten, but I'll take it lmao
Hearing you say song titles in spanish makes me feel moist melon
you are 300% wrong about Un Canto Por Mexico (it takes a lot of her more stilted songs and breathes life into them) but I absolutely agree this is one of her best works and one of the best albums of the year by a mile
he loved vol 1, in fact it was ranked 8th of his favorite albums of 2020, the one he didn't like as much as he wanted was vol 2
El mejor disco de Natalia hasta ahora
Samba, jazz, música regional. Y que poesía en las letras
"Natalia's best album so far. Samba, jazz, regional music. And what poetry in the lyrics"
Ergo Pop Bolero
The melón has such strong conection to Natalia. It'd be awesome if he had the opportunity to discover Latin greatest i.e Caifanes, Soda, Fania, Cafeta etc etc.
He should interview her, idk how that would work. But it would be fun/interesting haha
Wow I'm a year late for this, but so happy to have found this! Now im going to search if you've ever made a video about Shiina Ringo and Toyko Jihen. Their music aas super hard to come by for years for legal reasons but now with all the collabs coming about and new artists citing her as their inspiration to pursue music, i feel like she'll finally get her international recognition (hopefully!)
Her Best proyect yet. I hope you took the Time to dig the lyrics because they pure poetry, fr.
Picked this up because of Melon’s #1 of the year placement. This album is so incredible. Was also pleasantly surprised to learn the Marc Ribot is the guitarist on here, along with Sebastian Steinberg on bass, who played with the band Soul Coughing.
So happy, I knew the score was gonna be high. The way the first half is bare at times, and then some bossa nova and tropicália rhythms come in the latter half. Killer closer, made me tear up as I drove through Puerto Rican mountains on a misty day.
Beautiful album 🇲🇽
Silvana Estrada and Natalia Lafourcade >>>>>>>
You should review her previous albums, like Hasta La Raiz.
Listen to me, if you liked the production of this record you MUST check other works by producer Adan Jodorowsky, the son of Alejandro Jodorowsky, particularly Bandalos Chinos and specially His own project, with the album Amador, in which devendra banhart played an important role
I CAN’T TAKE IT ANYMORE. WHERE IS THE GIZZ ANTHONY.
One of my favorite albums this year ❤️
[SPOILERS FOR THE SCORE] Ok yeah I'm Mexican...and well I saw the yellow flannel...I saw the black and white cover...I was really hoping for a 10 on a Mexican record by the Melon, but I am very happy with a 9.
I think he gave a 10 to Un Canto por Mexico 1.
Over half of Melons 10s have black and white covers
@@MinorCirrus is that an album? He only has 7 10/10s
@@R-H-B My bad, I misremembered. He gave it an 8.
Oh god he’s never reviewing King Gizz
Caught the title track during a NMF over on your Twitch and she's fantastic. Makes me wish I was back where I grew up so I could share this with my papaw Ventura.
This woman is allergic to missing
Your tweet showing Maria la Curandera made me dive into this album and i havent come up for air since
I saw black and white and yellow flannel, goddamn melon you got me thinking it was a 10 at 1 AM
Gracias por valorar la música de otros países además de la estadounidense
Te quiero mucho mi cabeza de melón
"Thank you for valuing music from countries other than America. I love you so much my melon head

I guess you could say it’s smokin’ on your top 5 tonight.
I can’t speak Spanish but the album sounds great! Is it me or does anyone else get Journey to the Mountain of Forever vibes by Binker and Moses on a couple of these tracks? Love it 😍
The official album video has all the lyrics in English too!
Are you gonna review the new king gizzard albums?
Antonio please review 'Hasta La Raíz' from Natalia on your classic records review next week. All I ask, thank you
It is such a beautiful album man
Where the King Gizzard Reviews at?
My album of the year, maybe of the decade so far. It's so beautiful
It just made AOTY for fantano
Maybe HE COOPTED your opinion and flipped the script on us
Review Suave Pendiente! Best spanish album of the year
Definitely one of the best of the year but llévame viento in least favorites is killing me
i swear gizzard's last 3 releases are gold we're waiting madude
I listened to this album just because of the review, and damn was it deserving of a 9.
Gracias, melón. Realmente un álbum increíble.
Muy bien Fantano pero dónde está la reseña del Suave Pendiente?
Lo mismo digo 😭 Suave Pendiente y De todas las flores los mejores álbumes en español del año!
Honestly never knew why you loved her music then I listened to this album today it is absolutely gorgeous thank you melon
Alch sí, a primer escucha ya para mí era un 9, y estoy seguro de que seguirá creciendo en mí, grande la Lafourcade ❤️
adoro estos videos donde todos los comentarios son en español, te amo sandía
Why are you avoiding reviewing Joji's new album?
King gizzard are getting hosed man
El melon ataca de nuevo.
Would you review any cerati album?
Album of the year: 2022
I want a man to describe me the way anthony describes this album
One of the best albums of the year, I was wating for someone to make a review of it!
Te amamos Natalia 🤍
Honestly, i just love your pronunciation of the song titles while you did your review ... ¡Que Perfecto!
Fantano you should listen to Zoe, it's a great group from Mexico and I know you're going to love it 🛐
Antonio "El Melon" de las Fuentes, la aguja drop
Great review Anthony, the part where you told her to speak English was pretty odd tho
WHERE'S "HER LOSS" REVIEW???
you know that scene in gladiator where he is walking through a field in the afterlife? well this whole album sounds like it is being sung by a fairy living in that field from that scene from gladiator
Listen to nunca es suficiente feat. Angeles azules, you’ll two-step to that shit
Gracias fantonto por otro Score basado a lafourGOD
Me esperaba un 7 o un 8 pero ey, UN 9!? Gracias melón por dar reconocimiento a natalia!!
