The album was produced by Graeme Pleeth and it included singles such as Lo Siento, Boba Niña Nice, Angel, and Vivir, which was also chosen as the main theme song for Corazones al límite, another soap opera she briefly appeared in. There were 4 different versions of the album released: the original version "Belinda", Belinda (Repackage) which featured 1 extra track: No Entiendo featuring Andy & Lucas, Belinda (Enchanced) which featured 2 Remixes and 2 Multimedia Tracks, and Belinda: Edicion Especial which included a CD with 18 tracks and a DVD that contained five videos. The albums titled "Belinda" and "Belinda (Enhanced)" are the only albums that are being sold today. The rest were limited editions. In 2005, she collaborated with the Mexican rock band Moderatto on their single Muriendo Lento which is a cover of one of Timbiriche's songs, a Mexican pop group from the 1980s.
Belinda revealed in a program aired by Televisa, "Bailando por un Sueño" and "Bailando por la Boda de Tus Sueño", that EMI wanted her to spend one week in Los Angeles recording "Utopía 2" her newest album in English which will be released in Europe and North America by EMI International on September 25, 2007. She also appeared as a guest star in Buscando Timbiriche la nueva banda. This new CD included tracks in English and a DVD. Her second album "Utopía" reached #3 on the Mexican Charts and has sold over 180,000 copies.
Belinda was nominated in two categories in the 2007 Latin Grammy Awards which were held on November 8th. Her nominations include 'Song of the Year' for "Bella Traición" and 'Best Female Pop Album' for her hit album, "Utopía." On October 18, 2007, Belinda won two awards, Video of the Year for "Bella Traición" and Best Solo Artist at the MTV Video Music Awards Latinoamerica. Belinda also provided vocals for the remix of "Te Quiero" by DJ Flex.
On August 18, 2009, "Sal De Mi Piel" was released on iTunes.
Her latest telenovela, the edgy "Camaleones," aired in Mexico last year and will likely air stateside this summer. The show's theme song is "Sal de Mi Piel," a track on "Carpe Diem," but the first official single is "Egoista," a duet with rapper Pitbull.
With its high-energy, electro-pop-rock sound that's heavy on the attitude of Pink and Katy Perry, the album solidifies the transition from kiddie act to teen diva that Belinda made with her 2006 EMI Televisa release, "Utopia." The set will receive a March 23 release on Capitol Latin in the United States and on EMI in Mexico and Latin America, and is scheduled for a May release in Europe. Previously Belinda recorded on BMG, then signed with the now-defunct joint-venture label EMI Televisa in 2006.
An English-language version of "Egoista," pairing her with a yet-to-be-determined male artist, is in the works for Europe and the States.
For now, she's working on choreography to match her new sound. "You always have to find your own style, and that's what I've achieved on 'Carpe Diem,'" she says. "There's not another Latin artist that's doing this right now."
2) Hailing from Pawtucket, Rhode Island, Belinda is no stranger to the music world.

Maybe I'll be your friend
Maybe I'll wear your sweater
Maybe I'll find some time
To go shopping
And buy you nicer clothes
'Cause the ones you've got have got to go
I'll cook your dinner
That's the least I could do
I'd be so good for you
I build you up
I'll be the best
You'd have it all
If we were, if we were
You'd never be
So damn depressed
If we were, if we were
I build you up
You'd never rest
If we were, if we were
We'd be the most beautiful mess
If we were forever
Maybe I'll do your laundry
Maybe I'll scratch your back
Tell you I adore you
Make you feel like a man
And all of that
Now wouldn't that be nice?
And you've got a life, wouldn't think less
I'll drive you crazy for the rest of your life
That's the least I could do
I'd be so good to you
I build you up
I'll be the best
You'd have it all
If we were, if we were
You'd never be
So damn depressed
If we were, if we were
I build you up
You'd never rest
If we were, if we were
We'd be the most beautiful mess
If we were forever
You don't realize what your missing
All the huggin', all the kissin'
Shut up and listen to me
But we're not
I forgot
I build you up
I'll be the best
You'd have it all
If we were, if we were

If we were, if we were
We'd be the most beautiful mess
If we were forever
You don't realize what your missing
All the huggin', all the kissin'
Shut up and listen to me
But we're not

Belinda's song "If We Were" is a song about someone who has realized their faults in their past relationships and is ready to make changes to fix them in their future relationship. The song starts with the songwriter wishing to treat their partner better than they have done in the past. They are promising to be more attentive and caring; this includes buying them better clothes, cooking them dinner and doing their laundry. The chorus plays off the hypothetical scenario of an ideal relationship, where the singer would build up their partner, make them feel loved and never let them rest.
The second verse of the song is where the songwriter really hits the nail on the head. They plead with their partner to listen to them and give them a chance to prove that they can be better in their role as a partner. The song is a clear indication that the sins of past relationships will not define one’s future, and people are willing to learn from their mistakes.
Throughout the song, the songwriter expresses that they want to make their current relationship so much better than anything they have experienced before. The lyrics "I build you up, I'll be the best, you'd have it all" show that the songwriter wants to make their partner happy, and in return, hopes the relationship will be fulfilling for both of them. The song's ending is a reminder of the harsh reality that the imagined relationship may never come to fruition, but the willingness to make a change remains.
