She has had a dedicated fanbase throughout Latin America since the late 1980s, and is known as the "Queen of Rock" in the Hispanic world. She has sold 15 million albums.

Guzmán is the daughter of Mexican actress Silvia Pinal and Venezuelan-born Mexican rock and roll singer Enrique Guzmán. She is the half-sister of actresses Sylvia Pasquel and Viridiana Alatriste. Her niece Stephanie Salas is also a well known entertainer in Mexico.

After travelling with her mother's theatre troupe, Guzmán decided she wanted to focus on singing and recorded her début album Bye Mama in 1988, which yielded "La plaga", the first of many hits.

In 1990, Guzmán scored one of the biggest hits of her career, the song "Eternamente Bella" ("Eternally Beautiful"), which became a number one hit in Mexico and other Latin countries. The song is considered a classic by many Spanish rock fans.

In 1991 she released Flor de Papel. One of the album singles, "Hacer El Amor Con Otro", became a smash hit for Guzmán, not only in Latin America and México, but also in the U.S. The album was well received by critics and fans, and received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Latin Pop Album in 1992. The albums Libre and Enorme followed in 1993 and 1994, respectively. Her musical output in the late 1990s was often overshadowed by the many controversies she was involved in.

In 2002, Guzmán won her first Latin Grammy Award for Best Rock Solo Vocal Album for Soy.

In 2006, she released Indeleble. The first single was Volverte a amar, which became one of her biggest hits in Mexico and hit the Top 10 in the Billboard's Hot Latin Tracks, peaking number #6 and number #1 in Hot Latin Pop Airplay chart. The album (which reached the #1 spot in Mexico) has been certified double-platinum and won two awards at the Premios Oye! 2006 (Mexico's most important music awards), including Best Album of the Year and Pop Vocal Female. She was also nominated for two Latin Grammy Awards for Best Rock Vocal Album Indeleble and Best Rock Song for "Volverte a amar".

Cuidado Con El Corazon
Alejandra Guzmán Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Luces frias de diamantes
Angel o demonio tu
Caes del cielo azul
Lentamente igual que un blues
No, no llores asi
Aire casi irrespirable
Calles del atardecer
Mitad hombre con mujer

Flaco mas que un alfiler
No, no llores asi

Ten cuidado con el corazon
Aqui abajo en este mundo material
Te defiendes o te van a destrozar
Por nada
Ten cuidado con el corazon
Con las alas y con todo lo demas
Un descuido y te pueden desplumar
Alerta
Brillas con reflejos de oro
Tiemblas tierno querubin
Te dejo mi saco gris

Y camino junto a ti
No, no llores asi
Ten cuidado con el corazon
Aqui abajo en este mundo material
Te defiendes o te van a destrozar
Por nada
Ten cuidado con el corazon
Con las alas y con todo lo demas

Un descuido y te pueden desplumar
Alerta
Jugandome la piel
Te llevo a conocer
Esta ciudad obscura, mas
Jugandome la piel

Te llevo a conocer
Esta ciudad obscura, mas

The use of the phrase "jugandome la piel," which can translate to "risking my skin," creates a sense of urgency and high stakes.
