His follow up albums also enjoyed success with memorable love songs. Worth noting, (among many others) his Ibero-American number one smash hit single "La Chica De Humo" ("The Steam Girl"), a New Wave pop song which became one of the biggest hits throughout 1988, it also became a number one single on the U.S Hot Latin Tracks in the same year.
