Music video

[edit]

The accompanying music video for "Algo Tienes" was directed by Dago González, and it was filmed in Torrance, California.[1] Its shooting lasted for 20 hours, and featured P J López in its photography, and Cristóbal Valecillos as production designer.[2] Director González said about working with the singer: "Working with Pau has been one of the most rewarding experiences, because she has no problems, she is very open and fanned. When I would make a suggestion she always would add something. When I would say "Go" she would say "Yes", but that she would do more, and this makes her like no other".[3]

It depicts Rubio as a sensual DJ who transforms a construction site into a party. She can be seen completely naked in some scenes, covered with a yellow police tape written "Caution".[4]

Chart performance

Although "Algo Tienes" did not reach the US Billboard Hot 100, it managed to reach number 21 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart,[5] and number four on the Hot Latin Songs – becoming the album's second consecutive top ten single – and number one on the Latin Pop Airplay.[6][7]
