[5] Alborán's sophomore record Tanto (2012) spawned the number one singles "Quién" and "El Beso".
In 2002, at the age of 12, he composed his first songs, "Amor de Barrio" (Neighbourhood Love) and "Desencuentro" (Disagreement) which would be featured 10 years later on his debut album.
[6] Later, Pablo met producer Manuel Illán and recorded a demo, which included a cover of "Deja de Volverme Loca" (Stop Driving Me Crazy) by Diana Navarro.
Upon hearing this recording, Navarro expressed great interest in Alborán and became his musical mentor.
Both the single and the album were a huge success, managing to top the Spanish music charts for several consecutive weeks.
[12] Alborán began his first world tour on 27 May 2011 in Madrid at the Palacio Vistalegre, and has since performed in many Latin American countries, among which are Argentina, Chile and Mexico.
Both his albums Pablo Alborán and En Acústico were featured in Spain's official list of top-selling albums of 2011, at number 1 and number 6, respectively,[12] and singles "Solamente Tú" and "Perdóname" were the respective third and nineteenth best-selling songs in Spain in 2011.
[citation needed] In April 2016, "Se Puede Amar" was released, which is the first single of the forthcoming fourth studio album.
In August, Alboran re-released "Dónde está el Amor" with Brazilian singer Tiê.
[citation needed] On 8 September 2017, after a two-year break, Alborán announced on his social networks that he was finishing preparing what would be his fourth studio album, Prometo.
"Saturno" is a ballad, reminiscent of his beginnings as a singer, while "No Vaya a Ser" is a different style flirting with electronics and African rhythms.
