Production details
- Originally the album would be released as Timbiriche VIII, but not agreeing to choose between the 22 songs already recorded, the two producers (Marco Flores and Memo Méndez Guiú) attach all and split the album in two.
- Edith Márquez was about to resign three times and not record the album due to the ill-treatment of some of the group members.[2]
- The rivalry between Thalía and Paulina Rubio came to blows in a presentation in Ciudad Guzman, Jalisco.[3]
- Alix no longer felt comfortable in the group and at that time her parents divorced, a situation that affected her, as she began to miss several presentations and commitments the group had and finally chose to leave Timbiriche in November 1988. In February 1989 Bibi Gaytán enters as her replacement.
- The single Tu y yo somos uno mismo appears in the number two position on the list of the 100 Greatest Songs of the 80's in Spanish, count realized by VH1.[4]
- The song Por ti originally was to be part of the album as an introduction of Edith Marquez in the band, but the producers decided to record the song with all seven members and was saved for the upcoming album: Los Clásicos de Timbiriche (1989).
