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.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y ver que tu pecho explota por dentro
Sentir cada beso apreciar solo un gesto
Dime si no es amor, correr más que el tiempo
Pues ya que las horas se pasan volando
Y nada es lo mismo si estás a su lado
Dime si no es amor, vestir cada día
De sorpresas que guardan en baules
Y dime si no es amor, mirar dulcemente al sol
Dando gracias a Diós por ser tan grande
La ilusión de cada día y dejar de ser cobardes
Cuando sangren las heridas
¿Dime que ves aquí? ¿Dime si no es amor?
¿Dime que piensas? ¿Que siente tu corazón?
Que no muera jamás, esta dulce pasión
Que llena nuestras vidas
Dime si no es amor, pedir un deseo
Y ver que se cuple, que ya no hay desiertos
Que todo son mares que guardan misterios
Y dime si no es amor, poder escuchar su voz
Levantando tus brazos hacia el cielo
Pera ver llegar el día, y saber vencer al miedo
Cuando sangren las heridas
¿Dime que ves aquí? ¿Dime si no es amor?
¿Dime que piensas? ¿Que siente tu corazón?
Que no muera jamás, esta dulce pasión
Que crece sin medida
¿Dime que ves aquí? ¿Dime si ves amor?
¿Dime que piensas? ¿Que siente tu corazón?
Que no muera jamás, esta dulce pasión
Que llena nuestras vidas
