Background[edit]
After the success of his first English crossover single 'Bailamos', Iglesias signed a multi-album deal with Interscope and spent the next two months recording the first English album. Knowing that Iglesias was a Bruce Springsteen fan, Interscope chairman Jimmy Iovine recommended that Iglesias covered the Springsteen track 'Sad Eyes' which had recently been released on Springsteen's collection of rare recordings Tracks. The album also contains a duet with Whitney Houston, titled 'Could I Have This Kiss Forever', which Iglesias and Houston recorded separately. Iglesias recorded the song in Los Angeles and Houston in Hamburg, Germany with both of them singing with each other over the phone. They did eventually meet when they re-recorded the track for the single release. The album also included the crossover song 'Bailamos' which had previously been on a special edition of Enrique's Cosas del Amor album and the Wild Wild West soundtrack. The album cover was photographed by Pepe Botella.

The album was a success in Canada too, where it became 5 times Platinum and in Spain 4 times Platinum. It achieved Platinum status in Germany, Italy, Norway and Poland and Gold in Denmark, Switzerland and 30 other countries.

Personal Quotes (12)
If you're buying an album because of the face on it, you're stupid.
I know it sounds corny, but when you follow your dreams, it happens. And if it's music, take it seriously.
I don't care what people say. My music's, my music.
The power of music in Spanish is so strong that I couldn't stay away from it any longer
Touring is my favorite thing to do! I love the adrenaline I feel when I'm on stage and the energy I get from my fans.
We grow from experience. My music is always changing and in constant evolution. My first album is completely different to the last album. I just follow my own taste on music.
I like being underestimated. That's what pushes me, drives me to make a great album. I keep having to prove myself. This [music/song writing] is the only thing I know how to do, the only thing I really love.
What won't change is always striving for that great song and that great album. That's the challenge, that's the fun, and that's what will always drive me.
The song 'Hero' is a very deep and personal song. All my songs I write come from something that's happened to me, in my life or someone I've met. But, I'll never tell what they are about. It's a secret.
At the end of the day a great melody is great - but the lyrics are what make a song timeless.
Creating a fragrance will be an exciting way to reach new fans while connecting with those people who already enjoy my music. I have always admired Tommy Hilfiger and am very excited about this new venture with Tommy Hilfiger Toiletries. [Response to his 2005 Fragrance line, 'Blue Star Men']
