This album was the album that confirmed the success that Luis Miguel had reached with his last album Busca una mujer. The album broke the record in Mexico of most copies sold in one weekend (600,000 copies during the release weekend).

"Será que no me amas" had an "official choreography" that remains popular in Latin America to date. The album's second song, Oro de ley has become known among fans of professional wrestling for being the entrance theme of Japanese joshi wrestler Akira Hokuto.[3][4]
