"Tu Recuerdo" (transl. "Your Memory") is a song recorded by Puerto Rican singer Ricky Martin, featuring guest appearances from Spanish singer La Mari and Puerto Rican record producer Tommy Torres for Martin's first live album, MTV Unplugged (2006). The song was written and produced by Torres. It was released to radio stations by Sony BMG Norte as the lead single from the album on September 25, 2006. A Spanish language acoustic ballad and folk-pop song, it is about a person who is grasping on to the memory of someone. It received widely positive reviews from music critics, who complimented the singers' paced voices and emotional lyrics.

"Tu Recuerdo" was nominated for Record of the Year at the 8th Annual Latin Grammy Awards. The song was commercially successful, reaching number one in five countries, including Argentina and Mexico, as well as the top five in Chile, Paraguay, and Spain. It also reached the summit of the Billboard's Hot Latin Songs and Latin Pop Airplay charts. The track was certified quadruple platinum in both Mexico and Spain. To promote the song, Martin performed it at the 2006 Latin Grammy Awards. Several contestants on various music talent shows have covered the song, including Camilo.

Background and release

[edit]

Ricky Martin's team and MTV had discussed an MTV Unplugged for years, but it became more serious after Martin's the One Night Only with Ricky Martin tour, which featured an acoustic segment. Finally, Martin taped his MTV Unplugged set in Miami, Florida on August 17, 2006, performing both romantic ballads and up-tempo tropical dance songs.[1][2] Sony BMG Norte's president, Kevin Lawrie told Billboard about the set:

We've been counting down the days to present him in this very credible and stripped-down fashion. When you become a white-hot pop star, the perception of the public after a while may turn cynical, [as if to say], 'Well, maybe Ricky was just something that was manufactured.' This is a perfect opportunity to dispel any of that. In the acoustic 'Unplugged' format, there isn't much of a way to hide anything. It's really Ricky unmasked. And that's something that a lot of people haven't seen yet, and that's compelling in itself.[2]

During the performance, Martin debuted three new tracks,[3] including "Tu Recuerdo", which he performed along with Tommy Torres and La Mari of Spanish band Chambao. It became the most applauded new song and was released to radio stations as the lead single from the album on September 25, 2006.[1][4][5] Its video was also premiered on MTV Latin America on the same date.[2] The song was later included as the fourth track on Martin's first live album MTV Unplugged, released November 7, 2006.[6] During an interview with ABC, La Mari described singing with Martin as "the most surreal moment of [her] life".[7]

Music and lyrics

[edit]

Musically, "Tu Recuerdo" is a Spanish language acoustic ballad and folk-pop song,[1][9][10] that features flamenco influences and uses guitar and Puerto Rican cuatro.[1][2][11] The track was written and produced by Torres,[12] and runs for a total of 4 minutes and 7 seconds.[6] Lyrically, "Tu Recuerdo" which translates to "Your Memory" in English, is a romantic love song,[3][8][13] about a person who is grasping on to the memory of someone.[14] Throughout it, Martin sings about his lost love that their memory is still there with him, like a "downpour",[15] with lyrics including, "Tu recuerdo sigue aquí como un aguacero / Quema y moja por igual / Sé que te tengo que olvidar / Y ya no sé lo qué pensar / Si tu recuerdo me hace bien o me hace mal" (Your memory is still here like a downpour / Burns and wet alike / I know I have to forget you / And I no longer know what to think / If your memory does me good or does me bad).[16]

Critical reception

[edit]

"Tu Recuerdo" has been met with widely positive reviews from music critics. Jordan Levin from Miami Herald gave the song a positive review, labeling it "a lovely folk-pop piece". He also praised the unidentified cuatro player, describing him as "electrifyingly good".[10] In his review for Great Falls Tribune, he picked it as one of the "pod picks" of the album, calling the song "lovely".[17][18] An author of ABC named the track "a delicious ballad", noting the "sensitivity of both interpreters and masterfully paced voices".[19] Agustin Gurza from Los Angeles Times described it as beautiful, calling Martin's choice of "the relatively unknown" La Mari "a magical choice".[3] Judy Cantor-Navas from Billboard credited "Tu Recuerdo" as the song that "made Lamari a recognized name in the United States".[20] Also from Billboard, Leila Cobo labeled it "a little jewel".[21]

At La Voz de Galicia, a writer gave the song a positive review, saying "this sweet ballad enchanted everyone".[22] Edgar Torres of Metro Puerto Rico named it a "smash hit",[23] while Los 40's Nacho Herrero stated that Martin "has triumphed all over the world" with "Tu Recuerdo".[24] Also from Los 40, Beatriz Rodríguez Ruiz acclaimed its "high doses of romanticism".[25] Additionally, an author of LAE Madrid stated that "in this famous song" by Martin, "nostalgia and heartbreak predominate".[26] In 2015, Univision staff ranked the track as Martin's tenth best ballad.[27] In 2020, MTV Argentina ranked it as one of Martin's best songs.[28] The following year, MDZ Online staff listed "Tu Recuerdo" among "5 unmissable hits by young Ricky Martin", and described it as "super emotional".[29] In the same year, Claudia González Alvarado from Chilango ranked it as his eighth-best ballad, naming it "one of the most sensitive ballads in his repertoire".[30]

Accolades

[edit]

In 2019, La República ranked "Tu Recuerdo" at number 25 on their list of "The 50 Best Love Songs to Dedicate to Your Partner".[31] In 2021, Billboard listed it among the "10 Latin Songs to Fuel Your Long-Distance Relationship" on Valentine's Day.[14] Spotify placed it at number 16 on the playlist of "Time 100's Most Inspiring Songs".[32] Los 40 staff ranked it as one of the Best Collaborations in Spanish,[25] and placed it on an unranked list of "Songs for the Day of Hispanidad".[33] "Tu Recuerdo" has received a number of awards and nominations. It was nominated for Record of the Year at the 8th Annual Latin Grammy Awards, and although Billboard and Miami Herald's critics had predicted it to be the winner, it lost to "La llave de mi corazón" by Juan Luis Guerra.[21][34][35]
