Figueroa began using the artistic name of "Chayanne" when he was a little kid. He auditioned for Menudo, but was told that at the time that he was too young for the group. He didn't give up and he heard that Titi Soto was trying to create a new group that would compete with Menudo, and so he went and tried out. He was chosen for the group and his meteoric rise to the top began.

That group, Los Chicos, made several #1 hits, including Puerto Rico Son Los Chicos, and Terremoto. And while it never achieved the popularity of Menudo, it did give Menudo good competition, becoming famous all over Latin America, participating in a movie (Coneccion Caribe), and producing millions of Los Chicos-related memorabilia like t-shirts, rulers, magazines etc.

After Los Chicos went bankrupt in 1984 and separated, Chayanne, having become famous all over Latin America, retired for a little while, moving to Mexico and staying in the background for a few years, so his fans wouldn't get tired of seeing him. In 1987, he came back like a storm, his first solo album producing the Spanish pop classic Fiesta En America. Chayanne was back. He became an instant pop idol all over Latin America again. He toured all over Latin America, and in 1989 he produced his second solo album, which produced another smash hit in Tu Pirata Soy Yo.

The 1990s brought some changes for Chayanne. He started acting, married Marilisa Maronese, with whom he formed a family, and moved to Miami. He is well known for fiercely protecting the privacy of his wife and children. His acting career has been extremely favorable. Some of his roles include portraying himself in Volver A Empezar, playing a Cuban dancer along with Vanessa L. Williams in Hollywood's Dance With Me, and a few soap operas in Argentina, including Provocame.

He has also kept on touring and producing CDs, and along with Ricky Martin, is considered to be Puerto Rico's biggest pop idol ever. Songs such as Salomé, Torero, Boom Boom, Enamorado, Atado A Tu Amor, No Te Preocupes Por Mi, Caprichosa or Y Tú Te Vas are some of his greatest hits.

In 2006 he had a small role with famous singer and actress Natalia Oreiro in Sos Mi Vida (an Argentinian telenovela). Chayanne, today, having moved beyond teen idol, is a full-fledged Puerto Rican superstar.

Otra Vez
Chayanne Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hay algo entre tú y yo
Más fuerte que la fe
Mucho más grande que el destino
No sé por qué te amé
Ni cómo comenzó
Este romance repentino

Hacemos el amor

Hambrientos de pasión
Como algo cíclico, adictivo
Y sin explicación

Otra vez
Amor amor me estoy quemando
Otra vez
Con el fuego de tu piel
Otra vez
Siento que el fondo estoy tocando
Otra vez
Y no me puedo defender

Estoy entrando en ti
Nadando en tu sudor
Bebiendo el fruto de tu vientre

Quiero vivir así
Metido en tu dolor
Quedarme dentro para siempre

No sé que pasa en mí
Me ciega esta obsesión
Es algo cíclico, adictivo
Y sin explicación

Otra vez
Amor amor me estoy quemando
Otra vez
Con el fuego de tu piel
Otra vez
Siento que el fondo estoy tocando
Otra vez

Tú desatas en mí
Lo más dulce y profundo
Y yo no lo puedo evitar
Me derramo por ti
Desemboco en tu mundo
Y cuando creo llegar
Quiero volver a empezar
Otra vez

Otra vez

Otra vez
Amor amor me estoy quemando
Otra vez
Con el fuego de tu piel
Otra vez
Siento que el fondo estoy tocando
Otra vez
Y no me puedo detener

Otra vez
Oh, estoy tocando el fondo
Otra vez
Una y otra vez
Otra vez
Quiero vivir dentro de ti
Es algo cíclico (otra vez), adictivo
Que no tiene explicación

Otra vez
Amor amor me estoy quemando
