Jon Secada 'Just Another Day'

Chart Peak: 5

YouTube

Now here's one that sounds much more like 1992. A prime slice of radio-friendly pop with a slight Latin accent (it was produced by Emilio Estefan Jr, who'd long employed Secada before he launched his solo career). Much as this isn't the sort of thing I typically go for, I can appreciate this as a job well done and a little classier than some other records in this vein.

What it doesn't do, though, is make me want to hear any other Jon Secada records, and it seems I may not be alone there: like Tasmin Archer, he had more hits than you might have guessed but this is the one that's going to follow him around.

  1. A genuinely good pop song. What more do you want?

  2. Sometimes, that really is enough. The trouble is, it's not one I can find a lot to say about.

  3. At least I didn't mention how I used to think he was singing about a cyst.
