The story behind
La chula, according to DoReSol
The song *La chula* by Maná, with music composed by Fher, has a duration of 4:10. This track is part of the Mexican band's third studio album, titled *¿Dónde jugarán los niños?*, which was released on October 27, 1992. This album, launched simultaneously in over 40 countries, is considered by some to be the pinnacle of the group's discography, featuring other well-known hits like *Oye mi amor* and *Vivir sin aire*. The sales of this album exceeded 13 million copies worldwide.
For the recording of *¿Dónde jugarán los niños?*, Maná presented themselves as a quintet, incorporating Iván González on keyboards and César López, known as "Vampiro" and with previous experience in Azul Violeta and Jaguares, on guitar. However, both musicians left the lineup in 1994. Maná's characteristic sound is rooted in pop rock and Latin rock, and after initial commercial success in places like Australia and Spain, their popularity expanded to the United States, Western Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. The band, composed of Fernando Olvera on rhythm guitar and vocals, Juan Calleros on bass, Alejandro González on drums and vocals, and Sergio Vallín on lead guitar and vocals, has been recognized with multiple awards, including several Grammy and Latin Grammy Awards.
