1988 studio album by Luis Miguel From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Busca una Mujer ("Looks for a woman"), also known as Un Hombre Busca una Mujer, is the sixth studio album by Mexican singer Luis Miguel. It was mainly written and produced by Juan Carlos Calderón, and released on November 25, 1988, as the second album released with Warner Music. "Fría Como el Viento" was released as the album's lead single, which spent seven months on the top-ten of many record charts in Latin America. The success of "Fría Como el Viento" almost overshadowed the rest of the singles released from the album ("Separados", "La Incondicional", "Un Hombre Busca una Mujer", "Culpable o No (Miénteme Como Siempre)", "Esa Niña" and "El Primero" ). The album title was simply Busca una Mujer since his name would complement the title (i.e. meaning Luis Miguel Busca una Mujer). On the Billboard Hot Latin Songs Year-End Chart of 1989, "La Incondicional" appeared at number three. "Separados" has since become known among fans of professional wrestling for being the entrance theme of Japanese masked wrestler Último Dragón, outside of his tenure in WWE.[2][3]
