Background

"Como Fuí a Enamorarme de Tí" was released as the second single from Y Para Siempre, a studio album released by Los Bukis. The song lyrics, about an unrequited love, were also the basis for the script of the film of the same name, directed by Sergio Olhovich and released in México on May 21, 1991.[2] The plot of the film was a love story between Marco Antonio Solís and a girl, played by Mexican actress Lourdes Munguía.[3]

The song has been also included on several compilation albums released by Los Bukis, including their two number-one albums 30 Inolvidables (2002) and Crónica de Dos Grandes (2004);[4] also has been covered by a handful of performers, including Banda Flamante, Yolanda del Río, Grupo Everest, El Grupo de Santa Clara, Lucero, La Nueva Luna, Estela Núñez, Oro Norteño, La Arrolladora Banda El Limón, Los Rieleros del Norte and Johhny Rivera.[1] The track also can be found in the Solís' greatest hits collection entitled La Historia Continúa, Vol. 2, which was the best-selling Latin album of 2005 in United States and received a Platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America in 2009.[5]

Chart performance

The original version of the song debuted on the Billboard Top Latin Songs chart (formerly Hot Latin Tracks) at number 35 on August 26, 1989 and climbed to the top ten nine weeks later.[6] It reached the top position of the chart on December 9, 1989 replacing "Fuiste un Trozo de Hielo en la Escarcha" by Puerto Rican singer Chayanne and being replaced two weeks later by Emmanuel's "La Chica de Humo".[7][8] "Como Fuí a Enamorarme de Tí" returned to the top of the chart on January 13, 1990 for another three weeks, beign succeeded by the song "La Cima del Cielo" performed by Ricardo Montaner.[9][10] The song spent 39 weeks within the Top 40 and became the sixth top ten single for the group in the chart, and the second number-one hit, after "Y Ahora Te Vas" (1989).[11]

Colombian group Los Trí-O, a project created by producer Johny Gutiérrez who held auditions to form a Latin ballads-oriented trio, also recorded a version of the track for their album Canciones del Alma: De Marco Antonio Solís.[12] This version peaked at number 33 in the Latin Songs chart in United States.[13] Puerto Rican performer Tito Nieves also released his own version of the song on his tribute album to Marco Antonio Solis, Canciones Clasicas de Marco Antonio Solis, and peaked at number 20 in the Billboard Latin Tropical Airplay chart.[14]
