5to Piso (2008), Ricardo Arjona's 11th album, is another in a string of great albums by the Guatemalan singer/songwriter. Arjona won a couple of Grammys with his previous album, Adentro (2005), and proceeded to release a double-disc greatest-hits collection, Quién Dijo Ayer (2007), before unveiling 5to Piso and its chart-topping lead single, the ballad "Cómo Duele." Follow-up singles "Sin Tí... Sin Mí" and "Tocando Fondo" were also hits. The album-opening title track is another highlight. ~ Jason Birchmeier
