Love is the third studio album by Mexican singer Thalía,[2] it was released in 1992, under the previously owned Televisa record label, Melody/Fonovisa, which now belongs to Univision Music Group. This album was released in Mexico, some Central-American countries, the United States (with an alternative cover), Spain, Greece and Turkey. In Mexico, two different versions of 'Love' were released. The first one included only 12 songs. However, as Thalía's soap-opera María Mercedes was turning a big hit, a second version of the album was issued, featuring the Telenovela "soundtrack" as a bonus track. The album was recorded in Spain and produced by the Spanish producer Luis Carlos Esteban. Photography was in charge of the well-known photographer Adolfo Pérez Butron. It includes four covers, "A la Orilla del Mar" ("At the Seaside"), "La Vie en Rose" ("Life in Pink"), "Cien Años" ("A Hundred Years") and "Nunca Sabrás" ("You'll Never Know").[3] The album was certified Platinum + Gold in Mexico for 350,000 sold.[4] To celebrate Thalía's 25 anniversary as a solo artist, as for December 2014, this album is available in the digital platforms iTunes and Spotify.
