Romances is the fifteenth studio album by Mexican singer Luis Miguel, released on August 12, 1997, by Warner Music Latina. It is the third album of the Romance series, in which Miguel covers Latin songs from 1940 to 1978. Aside from Miguel, the production also involved Bebu Silvetti, who handled the arrangements, and Armando Manzanero, who directed all of Miguel's Romance albums. Romances consists of twelve cover versions and two new compositions by Manzanero and Silvetti. Recording took place in early 1997 at the Ocean Way Recording studio in Los Angeles, California.
Romances has sold over 4.5 million copies and received platinum certifications in several Latin American countries, the United States, and Spain. A tour to promote the album took place in the United States, Mexico, South America, and Spain. The album was generally well-received by critics, who praised Miguel's vocals as well as the song selection. The album earned Miguel several awards, including a Grammy Award in the United States. Six singles were released: "Por debajo de la mesa", "El reloj", "Contigo (estar contigo)", "De quererte asi (De t'avoir aimee)", "Bésame mucho", and "Sabor a mi".
