In June 1985, Billboard magazine established Latin Pop Albums, a chart that ranks the best-selling Latin pop albums in the United States. The chart was published on a bi-weekly basis with its positions being compiled by sales data from Latin music retailers and distributors.[1][2] According to Billboard, Latin pop includes "the music known as the balada romántica or música interacional" as well as "young pop sounds" and "the new Spanish-language rock".[3]
The first song to reach number one on the Latin Pop Airplay chart was "Mañana" by Cristian Castro, which was composed and originally performed by Juan Gabriel.[4][5] Castro was also the artist with the most number-one songs in 1995 with "Con Tu Amor", "Azul Gris", and "Vuélveme a Querer".[6] The latter song held this position for the longest with 14 weeks.[7] Luis Miguel had two number-one songs on the chart in 1994 with "El Día Que Me Quieras" and "La Media Vuelta",[8] the second of which was the final chart-topper of the year and the first at the start of 1995.[9][10] He achieved his third number one track in 1995 with "Todo y Nada".[8] The three songs were recorded for the album Segundo Romance (1994), in which Luis Miguel covers ballads from Latin America.[11] Ednita Nazario became the first female artist to have a chart-topper with "Quiero Que Me Hagas el Amor" and achieved her second number one song a year later with "Gata Sin Luna".[12]
Former Timbiriche band member, Claudio Bermúdez (credited for this release simply as Claudio), released his debut album Como Aire Fresco in 1994 which was promoted by its lead single "Ven Junto a Mi".[13] "Ven Junto a Mi" spent seven consecutive weeks on top of the chart in 1995. Despite this level of chart success, the song remains Bermúdez's only number one recording.[14] Selena's "I Could Fall in Love" posthumously became the first English-language song to song to peak at number one on the survey and remains her only number-one song on this chart.[15][16][17] Similarly, Lucero and Julio Iglesias obtained their first and only chart-toppers in 1995.[18][19] Laura Pausini was the only female act to have more than one chart-topper in 1995 with the Spanish-language versions of "Strani amori" ("Amores Extraños") and "Gente".[20][21] Although it spent only a single week at number one in 1995, "Ese Hombre" by Myriam Hernández was named as the best-performing Latin pop song of the year.[22] The final number one of 1995 was "Más Allá" by Gloria Estefan.
