Singles released

The first single released was "Ayer", with a very big promotional campaign behind it. The singer shot three different versions for the video (directed by Benny Corral, Gustavo Garzón and Kiko Guerrero) and they were premiered on "Siempre en Domingo" (a very well known variety show in Latin-America) for three consecutive weekends. The single became another number one smash for the singer in Mexico and USA.

"Hasta Que Me Olvides" was released as the second single and was also a #1 hit (both Mexico and US). No video was made for the single release. Singer Mijares covered it in his 2009 Spanish album Vivir Así.

"Suave" was the third single. The video was directed by Kiko Guerrero. The single was the third straight number one for the singer in Mexico and peaked at #9 in the US charts.

"Pensar en Ti" was featured on a Mexican advertising campaign for processed milk (Leche Lala). Also went to number one in Mexico.

In USA another two singles were released: "Tú y Yo" and "Hasta el Fin" both peaking at #4 on the Hot Latin Tracks charts.

The Tower of Power horns played on "Qué Nivel de Mujer" (track 6).
