(1994)"Lucero" is the tenth
album from Mexicanpop music singer andactress Lucero . It was released on1993 . And is often cited as "Veleta".This album was the first Lucero album released only in
CD and cassette, without being printed on LP. Had two formats: a digipack special edition & and the normal case with the bonus tracks, selling 350,000 copies on the former and reaching half-million status with the later.The first single (and most successful) was "Veleta" (Fickle), and the singer once again face the challenge to remove
Luis Miguel 's "America, America" from the #1 spot in México. She accomplished that feat. "Veleta" is also her highest peak at the "Billboard" Hot Latin Tracks charts, hitting #2.The second single "Sobreviviré" (I Will Survive) also hit #1 in Mexico (and #8 in
US ) and was dethroned from pole position by the single "Ayer" by Luis Miguel.The album was nominated for an Eres award in the Best Album category, which (ironically) was awarded to "Aries" by Luis Miguel.
All track were written and produced by Rafael Pérez Botija, including the bonus tracks written specifically for the
soap opera "Los Parientes Pobres".On her second
live album "Lucero En Vivo Auditorio Nacional " the singles "Sobreviviré", "Veleta" and "El Número Uno" are included on the set-list.Track listing
