ROZALÉN
I already wanted more songs from one of my women referring music ... It comes with more anger but always with the warm voice caressing implacable.
And leaving us women in such a nice, so beautiful, so real ... plane that it is impossible not to feel identified in each verse.
FUNAMBILIST
[...] I have learned a lot from his music.
For me, she is one of the best song writers that exist.
[...] The new material is absolutely impressive, exciting, powerful.
[....]
ANDRES SUÁREZ
[...] What she did for my Vicky Gastelo, Victoria as I call her, is to evolve, but in an elegant way.
In the best way, in the best of sounds [...] Vicky is one of the best writers, I think, I've known, she made an album believing a lot in each verse, in each syllable, and it shows. [...]
MARWAN
Spend it is one of my weaknesses.
She is the best composer in this country for many reasons, because she is very emotional, but above all because she is good at everything, in music, playing the guitar, playing the piano, she is very good at melodies and she is brutal in lyrics and, Of course, the voice he has is absolutely unique with a lot of personality.
CONCHITA
I always liked the songs of Gastelo.
His way of singing and counting them.
But for me this album goes a few steps further.
He has placed the focus elsewhere, in a brighter place, and the songs have become larger and more rounded.
[...] I am lucky to have been able to see how those songs were growing, I have seen how they pampered them, as it gave a thousand twists to the lyrics and production, and the result is up to all the brutal work that has made Vicky.
He has done it again.
But better yet, and it was complicated.
