The story behind
When you dive into Lo Que Fui Es Lo Que Soy, you encounter a piece that, although it wasn't the album's big hit, resonated enough to be remembered on the radio. The music, signed under the pseudonym A. Medina (Algazul Medina) by Alejandro Sanz himself, is part of his second studio album, Viviendo Deprisa, released on August 20, 1991. This album marked a turning point, being the first with the WEA Latina label and catapulting the artist to national recognition in Spain. All compositions on this album bear Sanz's signature under that same initial artistic name.
Viviendo Deprisa, which translates to Living in a Hurry in English, saw the light of day at a key moment for Alejandro Sanz. The album, released in 1991, contained songs like Los Dos Cogidos de la Mano and Pisando Fuerte, which became hits and had their own music videos. Lo Que Fui Es Lo Que Soy, along with Se Le Apagó la Luz, also captured the attention of radio stations. The expanded version of this album, known as Viviendo Deprisa (Edición 2006), was released on September 26, 2006, offering additional content. Alejandro Sánchez Pizarro, the artist's real name, was born in Madrid on December 18, 1968. His career has been prolific, with sales exceeding 25 million copies and multiple accolades, including 17 Latin Grammys and three Anglo Grammys.
