The story behind
The song *Una y mil veces* by Cristian Castro, with a duration of 5 minutes and 25 seconds, is from the album *El Deseo de Oír Tu Voz*. This work, released in January 1996 under the Fonovisa Records label, marked the artist's last collaboration with this record company. The production was handled by Daniel Freiberg. Within this same album, other tracks such as *Amor* and *Amarte a Ti* reached the top of the Billboard Hot Latin Tracks and Billboard Latin Pop Airplay charts during 1996, demonstrating the good reception of the singer's music during that period.
Cristian Castro, whose birth name is Cristian Sainz Valdés Castro, was born in Mexico City in 1974. He comes from a family with a strong connection to the entertainment world. His mother is the renowned actress Verónica Castro, and his father is Manuel "El Loco" Valdés, also an actor. On his mother's side, he is the nephew of telenovela producer José Alberto "El Güero" Castro, and on his father's side, he descends from figures such as the comedian Germán Valdés, known as Tin Tán, and Ramón Valdés, who played Don Ramón in *El Chavo del Ocho*. Despite having started his path in acting, his true vocation and the path that would lead him to international recognition was singing.
