“La Chica Dorada”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

La Chica Dorada (English: The Golden Girl) is the solo debut studio album by Mexican pop singer Paulina Rubio (after leaving the Timbiriche group) and her first album by the EMI Latin record label.^[1] The album was produced and directed by Miguel Blasco, and written mostly by J.R. Florez, Gian Pietro Felisatti and Cesar Valle. Most of the composition of the album is dance-pop, although it includes some elements new jack swing, new wave and funk.

The album has received a mixed review from music critics; Many medios applauded the album itself for interesting themes and her step in the music industry as "the girl to woman", while some did not like another "Madonna wannabe" because of the great influence of the North American artist on the album.^[2] Despite the mixed critical reaction, La Chica Dorada was a worldwide success. The album includes Rubio's signature song and the single that launched her solo career, "Mío", along with "Sabor A Miel" and "Amor De Mujer". The album's title has stuck and today Rubio is known as 'la chica dorada' (the golden girl) and throughout the Spanish-speaking world. The album in received three gold certificates only in Mexico and, finally, platinum^[3] with sales of 350,000 copies.^[4]

In the United States, the album has a steady climb, and peaked at No. 4 on Billboard Top Latin Albums on the week ending June 12, 1992,^[5] and the singles "Mío", "Amor De Mujer" and "Abriendo Las Puertas Al Amor" entered the Top 10 of Hot Latin Tracks, turning Paulina Rubio into a strong promise of Hispanic music,^[6] and the first Mexican artist who managed to enter the most important list of the music industry with her debut album.

Background and development

After having been part of the Timbiriche group and recording ten studio albums, Rubio traveled to Europe in 1991 to study History of Art, but his greatest wish was to start his solo career. This is how Gian Pietro Felisatti, better known as "DiFelisatti", one of the most outstanding composers of that era, along with José Ramón Flórez, volunteered to work on the solo project of the young artist of 20 years. The well-known producers and she had a very good relationship, since both writers were responsible for great successes of the band Timbiriche. Added to the above, Rubio was established in Spain to start recordings of what would be his debut album.

Miguel Blasco, Spanish producer of the greatest discographic hits of Alejandra Guzmán, Yuri and Mijares would handle all the production of La Chica Dorada, achieving a breakthrough in just four months of work.

Critical reception

Many Critics could not avoid comparing La Chica Dorada to Madonna^[12] dance-pop 80's era records, and to tell the truth, what makes the album distinctive is Rubio's authentic personality: sophisticated young adult and sensual, genuinely compared to Marilyn Monroe. In fact, Rubio remarked a mole on the side of the lip, like the Hollywood actress. Trapped in these stereotypes, the singer it makes its way through implacable and passionate clues such as "Mío", "Amarte En Libertad", "Amor De Mujer" and "Sabor A Miel" in styles dance-pop. La Chica Dorada remains one of her defining albums of Latin pop.

Released and promotion

La Chica Dorada was released in Mexico and United States on October 20, 1992, the same day that Madonna released her fifth studio album, Erotica. The album was re-released in Europe in 2001, and the digital edition was released in 2005.

The promotion began in July 1992, when Rubio conducted a small advertising campaign by several Mexican media outlets, where she presented her new image as "golden girl" and promoted the song "La Chica Dorada" on some radio stations. " The singer made several promotional appearances, including talk shows and live performances in the main cities of Mexico. Paulina Rubio made her debut as a solo singer on the legendary Mexican television program Siempre en Domingo, with Raúl Velasco on October 18, 1992,^[14] 3 days before her album was released. She performed the song "Amor De Mujer" and her first single, "Mío". The famous television host commented that "it was a great privilege to have presented Paulina as a solo singer". His presentation had a high audience rating that the next week was invited again.^[15] In United States, for the Spanish-language television program Sábado Gigante, Rubio performed the track "Mío" in January, 1993 and that presentation opened the doors to the Hispanic market in that country.^[16]

Singles

"La Chica Dorada" was often aired on radio airplay in Mexico for two months. It, however, was only a Mexican release and was not part of her single debut project. "Mío" was the first single from the album and featured lyrics written by José Ramón Flórez. The producer of the album, Miguel Blasco, thought that Paulina should transmit a more sophisticated and sexy image, and that reflected in her debut single. It became a number one hit for Rubio in Mexico and Latin America and was number three on US Hot Latin Track. "Amor De Mujer", the second single in Latin America, reached number one in Mexico, Colombia and Argentina and reaching number eight in the US Hot Latin Tracks. Rubio re-released "Abriendo Las Puertas Al Amor" in April 1993 in Latin America and was moderately successful reached on the top ten. It was released as the album's second single in US and became the highest entry of the US Latin singles chart by a female artist with the singles and debut album. "Sabor A Miel", the fourth single in US, reached number three in Mexico and had good commercial acceptance. "Amarte En Libertad" was exclusively released in Latin America as the airplay single in July, 1993 and the song was the prelude to Rubio's second album, 24 Kilates, which would be published only 4 months later.
