Released on 25 April 2006, the idea to record together came after both had previously performed at the Auditorio Nacional in Mexico City. The album consisted mostly of some of the most beloved Spanish love songs from the 1980s. The lead single was non-cover track “Y Llegaste Tú". In interviews, Yuri stated that, “Upon the initial invitation by Mijares to record together, I felt this was the perfect moment for this record”. It went on to sell more than 100,000 earning Platinum disc.[1]
