1998 was a very interesting year for Puerto Rican star Chayanne. Besides recording ATADO A TU AMOR, he appeared in the film DANCE WITH ME with Vanessa Williams, a Hollywood venture into the world of salsa. The movie itself tanked at the box office, but Chayanne emerged unscathed from the experience, an accomplished actor, virtuoso dancer, and likable singer.

ATADO A TU AMOR is a more quiet effort than previous Chayanne records, and it includes "Refugio de Amor," the Spanish version of "You Are My Home," his duet with Vanessa Williams from DANCE WITH ME. Elsewhere, the singer looks for inspiration outside of Puerto Rico. "La Playa" is a melancholy version of the popular French ballad "La Plage," while "Enamorado" is a composition by Carlinhos Brown, one of the most original songwriting voices to come out of Brazil in the '90s.
