Demasiado Fuerte


Demasiado Fuerte is the twenty-fifth studio album by Puerto Rican singer Yolandita Monge and was produced by José Luis Pagán. It was released in 2007 under her new contract with Univision Music. The album was featured at Billboard's chart [Billboard 200|Billboard Magazine|Billboard 200] at the 112 position. Yolandita was nominated for a 2008 Billboard Award and a 2008 GLAAD Award for this record.
The album debuted at number one on the Billboard Latin Pop Albums chart\, making her return to music one of the greatest comebacks ever seen in the Latin Market. This was her first studio album in over five years and it reinforced her revered status with an exquisite collection of modern ballads that shine the spotlight on her expressive and powerful voice. Highlights include the lovelorn "La Vida Sin Tu Amor," the dramatic "Cambio De Piel," and the delicate lullaby "Como Una Flor".
The radio hits hits "Y Todavía" and the title track "Demasiado Fuerte" were remixed in reggaeton style and became hits in the urban radio stations in Puerto Rico and the Latin communities in United States. The CD included a DVD with an exclusive interview, the music video for "Y Todavía" and three songs from the 1989 special Vivencias.
