Te Quiero (Ricardo Arjona song)

"Te Quiero" is a Latin pop song by Guatemalan recording artist Ricardo Arjona, released on 5 July 2012 as the third single from his 13th studio album, Independiente (2011).

[1] Presided by Arjona and some friends, Metamorfosis is based in Miami and Mexico City,[2] and also includes the photographer and director Ricardo Calderón, Universal Music México's executive Humberto Calderon and BMG's Miriam Sommerz.

Also, in the album, Arjona returned to his classic and trademark sound, which Torres has helped crafting it since six years now, after the drastic change he made in Poquita Ropa.

[6] Billboard notes that although other groups have decided to launch independently their works after having a contract with major record labels, Arjona is by far the most important artist in the Latin pop to follow this trend.

[2] "Te Quiero" is a latin pop song written and produced by Arjona, alongside longtime collaborators Dan Warner and Lee Levin under their stagename Los Gringos.

[7] Roger Hudson provided additional background vocals for the song, and Matt Rollings, Peter Wallace, Carlos "Cabral" Junior and Isaías García served as recording engineers, along with Warner and Levin.

[7] "Te Quiero" was mixed by David Thoener in The Blue Grotto at Nashville, Tennessee and mastered by Tom Coyne in Sterling Sound at New York City.

In 2011, Arjona founded his own record label, Metamorfosis .
Arjona performed "Te Quiero" alongside new songs and past hits on his Metamorfosis World Tour , as well as on a program broadcast by Televisa in 2011.
