Album history


Juanes has stated that the album is to be completed in Spanish and has a "very Colombian" sound to it. Juanes co-produced this record, working with a two-time Academy Award-winning producer, Gustavo Santaolalla. It has been said that the album has typical Colombian sounds, such as the "guasca," "vallenato," and "cumbia."

When choosing the name for this record, Juanes was inspired by a conversation he had with his mother, who told him to "Not worry, because life is just a moment." Following what that phrase means, Juanes thought of creating an album remembering that life passes you by in a blink of an eye and concentrating more on his family and beloved beings.[1]

The first single "Me Enamora" was released on September 3, 2007, to the media and online stores, such as iTunes and reached number one in 19 countries. The second single is "Gotas de Agua Dulce".

This album won the Latin Grammy Award for Album of the Year and Best Male Pop Vocal Album; and the lead single "Me Enamora" also received three awards for Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Short Form Music Video in the 9th Annual Latin Grammy Awards.[2] At the 51st Annual Grammy Awards this album won for Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Album.[3]

This album was reissued on September 15, 2008, with three new songs and eight tracks recorded live on his tour in the United States and Europe. The special edition will include also a DVD with new footage from Juanes' tour and the music videos the three singles released already. The confirmed new tracks for this re-edition are: "Falsas Palabras" (recorded with Gustavo Santaolalla in late 2007) and "Odio por Amor" (the first single from this revamped edition).[4]
