As of 2013, Gabriel had released twenty studio albums, three live albums, and fifteen compilation albums. Three Gabriel albums reached number one on the Billboard Latin Pop Albums, and seven singles reached number one on the Billboard Latin Songs chart, including "Ay Amor", "Es Demasiado Tarde", and "Quién Como Tú". Her work earned her numerous awards and accolades, including a Grammy Award nomination, four Latin Grammy Award nominations, thirteen Lo Nuestro Awards, as well as awards from the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers; in 2006, she received the Excellence Award at the Lo Nuestro Awards.
In 1987, Ana Gabriel won third place at the OTI Festival in 1987, celebrated in Lisbon, Portugal, where she performed an orchestral version of the pop-power ballad song "Ay Amor", which later was released as a single in its album version; it climbed to the top position in Mexico, all-over Ibero-America and on the Billboard Hot Latin Tracks chart for 14 consecutive weeks.
In 1988 Gabriel released her first album, Tierra de Nadie, followed by Pecado Original in 1989, which met with some chart success. Her 1990 album Quien Como Tú made her a force within the Mexican music industry. Eight months later, her live album En Vivo showcased her powerful stage act and scored several hits: "Hice Bien Quererte", "Propuesta", and "Solamente una Vez".
Throughout the 1990s Gabriel released an album almost every year. A versatile singer, she showcased her talent as an interpreter of many different musical styles, from lambada to mariachi and romantic ballads to pop music. She also honed her skills as a songwriter and a producer, releasing Mi Mexico, a ranchera-influenced, mariachi-backed pop album, in 1991. This unique blend of styles was also reflected in the songs, all written by Gabriel. Her lyrics described strong, active women involved in their love lives, counter to their passive, traditional depiction in older songs. The album also included a tribute to Mexico's most popular singer-songwriter, Juan Gabriel (no relation).
Gabriel scored a number-one hit with the duet "Cosas del Amor" in 1991, which she sang with Vikki Carr, a Mexican-American pop singer famous in the 1960s. The single earned Gabriel a Lo Nuestro Award for Song of the Year in 1992. At the same awards ceremony Gabriel was also named Female Artist of the Year in the Regional Mexican category and Pop Female Artist of the Year; Mi México was named Regional Mexican Album of the Year. In 1993, Gabriel was awarded Best Pop Female Performer at the Lo Nuestro Awards.
In 1996 she released the pop-oriented Viven-cias. She followed this with the traditional ranchera album Con un Mismo Corazón in 1997, an album she wrote and produced herself. Of particular interest is her title-track duet with Vicente Fernandez, one of the most prolific and popular ranchera singers in Mexican history. Burr wrote of the duet, "The beauty here lies in the melding of two great voices—Gabriel's husky sensuality and Fernandez's powerful, understated expressions—set against a 25-piece symphony."
Gabriel released another live album in 1998, En la Plaza de Toros Mexico, a 30-track boxed set. That same year she traveled to Miami to work with the renowned producer Emilio Estefan, Jr., on her 1999 album Soy Como Soy. The result was a pop-influenced ranchera album that went gold in the Latin music market and helped Gabriel win the Ritmo Latino Music Award for Female Pop Artist of the Year in 2000.
With the release of Eternamente in 2000 Gabriel returned to mariachi love ballads, using only guitar as accompaniment. That same year she also appeared with other Mexican music icons in an independence day television special called Viva Mexico, a celebration of Mexican music and history. In 2001 Gabriel released Huelo a Soledad, once again balancing the traditional sounds of Eternamente with sophisticated pop songs, a cappella numbers, and dance tracks.
In 2002 Gabriel's platinum-selling album Sagitario was released. In that same year she won the Billboard Latin Music Estrella Award in recognition of her contribution to the Latin music industry, performed at a tribute concert for Vicente Fernandez sponsored by the Latin Music Awards, and participated in the ninth annual Las Cruces International Mariachi Concert and Festival in New Mexico. In December of that year she was scheduled to perform at the eleventh annual Christmas Mariachi Festival in Phoenix, Arizona, but was denied a work visa and refused entry into the United States.
Gabriel is a devout Catholic, telling Luther Orrick-Guzman of QV Magazine, "I believe and have a lot of faith in God." She places a red rose and a white carnation onstage at each of her performances, telling Orrick-Guzman the flowers symbolize "communication between myself and God." Her performances are also noted for their power and the respect she has for all of her fans.
Solo Quiero Ser Amada
Ana Gabriel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y el frío congelando mis lágrimas
Sola quedé y los recuerdos
Quebrandome el alma
Te amo y no te puedo olvidar
De veras, yo no logro escapar
La nieve sin fin
Una vez más
Tu rostro se apodera de todo
Lo cierto es que te quiero besar
Y amarnos como nunca quizás
Nada de los dos quedó
Y sin embargo
Yo te espero
Oh te espero
Oh te espero
Yo no sé si vuelva a verte
Yo no sé qué pasará
No me importa nada, nada
Sólo quiero ser amada
Yo no sé si vuelva a verte
Yo no sé qué pasará
No me importa nada, nada
Sólo quiero ser amada
La nieve sin fin
Me vuelve a ese pasado que añoro
Una vez más
Tu rostro se apodera de todo
Lo cierto es que te quiero besar
Y amarnos como nunca quizás
Nada de los dos quedó
Y sin embargo
Yo te espero
Oh te espero
Oh te espero
Yo no sé si vuelva a verte
Yo no sé que pasará
No me importa nada, nada
Sólo quiero ser amada
Ah, amada
Ah, amada
The lyrics to Ana Gabriel's song Solo Quiero Ser Amada speak about a lover who is left alone in the same city where she had shared a past with her former partner. The cold is freezing her tears, and memories are breaking her soul. She admits that she still loves him and can't forget him, even though there is no hope for their relationship. She is longing for the past and finds herself lost in thoughts of wanting to kiss and love him again, even if it might never happen.
The word "nieve" or "snow" appears twice in the song, adding a cold and melancholic mood to the lyrics. The snow symbolizes the memories of her past, which never seem to melt away, just like the countless snowflakes. Her heart is still in the past, and she is waiting for her ex-lover, hoping that he would come back to her.
Overall, the song speaks about a woman who has been left heartbroken and now only seeks love and comfort. She can't let go of her past relationship and desperately longs to be loved again, even though she knows it might never happen. The lyrics are poignant and express a deep sense of yearning that many people can relate to.
