His rise to fame was gradual and slow. At first, his debut album (que pides tu) didn't sell much. Alex started to tour national radios with his guitar, the way many American pop stars do, to sing his songs live and be interviewed. Eventually this strategy worked and his album finally hit the charts. His second album, Fantasia o Realidad, which would win Ubago international stardom, continued with the succes of the single 'aunque no te pueda ver'The latter record achieved gold and platinum status, given its strong sales in Spain, Latin America, and the U.S. In 2006 Ubago released Aviones de Cristal, featuring the song "Viajar Contigo," one of Ubago's many Billboard chart successes. He immediately made it to the top of the Latin music charts, and Ubago’s face appeared on almost every cover of Latin and Spanish entertainment magazines, including Rolling Stone. He performed over 100 concerts in his home country after that release, and his album went platinum several times worldwide. He is currently one the most successful and sought-after Spanish pop singers.

Tranquila, yo haré canciones para ver
Si así consigo hacerte sonreír
Si lo que quieres es huir
Camina, yo haré canciones para ver
Si así consigo fuerzas pa' vivir
No tengo más motivos para darte
Que este miedo que me da
El no volver a verte nunca más
Creo ver la lluvia caer
En mi ventana te veo pero no está lloviendo
No es más que un reflejo de mi pensamiento
Hoy te echo de menos
Yo solo quiero hacerte saber, amiga, estés donde estés
Que si te falta el aliento, yo te lo daré
Si te sientes sola, háblame
Que te estaré escuchando aunque no te pueda ver
Aunque no te pueda ver
De tantas cosas que perdí, diría
Que solo guardo lo que fue
Mágico tiempo que nació un abril
Miradas tristes sobre mí se anidan
Y se hacen parte de mi piel
Ahora siempre llueve, porque estoy sin ti
No tengo más motivos para darte
Que esta fría soledad
Que necesito darte tantas cosas más
Creo ver la lluvia caer
En mi ventana te veo pero no está lloviendo
No es más que un reflejo de mi pensamiento
Hoy te echo de menos
Yo solo quiero hacerte saber, amiga, estés donde estés
Que si te falta el aliento, yo te lo daré
Si te sientes sola, háblame
Que te estaré escuchando aunque no te pueda ver
Aunque no te pueda ver
