On the album title:
"The new album is called 'Soy y Seré' and it's a great way to continue the amazing success that my previous album, 'Ciclos,' had… There are 10 songs on the album, and I think it's very danceable…"

The single:
"The first single is 'Dame de Tu Boca,' and it's very dear to me because it's one of the few songs that I've written with my brother Ramón Mejia. We wanted to give people something different, totally unexpected…"

Working with Alex Cuba:
"I heard his music on MySpace, and I wrote to him and told him that I really enjoyed his music and his work… He came to Miami, and we wrote a couple of songs… I think we have a lot of chemistry when we write…and have similar points of view in music and in life…"

Working with Sergio George:
"I worked with Sergio for the second time in my career. I feel that we have great chemistry, and compliment each other in different ways… It's difficult to find a producer who you can hand everything over to, and be happy with it because you know everything is going to be okay…"

On his comeback:
"Many people thought that I was done, that I wasn't going to come back…that I had a great 15-20-year career run and that was it… But I got together with Sergio…and I had already planned to do an album… I'm very blessed to be here, doing what I'm doing and being rewarded in so many ways. I have my career again…"

The fans:
"My fans were extremely happy that I was back. They had been waiting for a new album forever… I'm extremely grateful to them…'"

The Set List
Dame de Tu Boca
The first single off the new album Soy y Seré, and co-written with his brother Ramón Mejia, the track is a romantic merengue/Colombian hybrid that not only makes you dance, but also fall in love, Give me your lips to love you, give me your lips to adore you…

El Reto
The sixth track on the new album, El Reto follows the romantic trend that Luis Enrique is known for, and it's the perfect song to sing to someone you love, but who is not quite ready to admit they love you too.

Deseos
Luis Enrique slows it down a bit in this sultry salsa he co-wrote with Alex Cuba. I hope you live twice as much as you have lived…that you're happy even without me, says this feel good anthem about all the wonderful things you can wish for someone you truly love.

Descontrólame
A modern salsa tune, with obvious guitar riffs, Luis Enrique sings the words that all girls want to hear from a guy, drive me crazy and steal my heart… turn my silence into a love song…

Locos Los Dos
One of the first songs Luis Enrique and Alex Cuba co-wrote, Locos Los Dos is a catchy, cool salsa tune about two people looking for love in different ways, and neither can quite find it.

Yo No Sé Mañana
From his comeback album Ciclos, this track has not only become another song in Luis Enrique's long list of hits, but it also sealed his very successful comeback to salsa and commercial success.
