Romance is a bolero album released by singer Luis Miguel in 1991.

The album was a massive success across Spain, Latin America and the United States, where it has been certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America.[3]

Romance was nominated in 1992 for a Grammy in the category of Best Latin Pop Album, losing to Vicki Carr's Cosas del Amor. Also received a nomination for "Album of the Year" on the Eres Magazine awards held in México in 1991 (losing to Alejandra Guzmán's "Flor de Papel"). In 1992 the album was nominated again in the same field and won.

To date, Romance remains the biggest seller for Luis Miguel in Mexico with sales (only in that country) of seven million copies. It's widely considered as the album who brought bolero music back to mainstream. After the success of this album many singers like Daniela Romo and Charlie Zaa recorded boleros. Also, on the Top Latin albums charts in USA the album peaked at number three.[4]
