Tiempo de Amar
Tiempo de Amar is Menudo's 36th album (23rd in Spanish), released in 1996.[1] The album features the members: Abel Talamántez, Alexis Grullón, Andy Blázquez, and new members Didier Hernández from Cuba, and Anthony Galindo from Venezuela.[2] Didier and Anthony replaced Ashley Ruiz and Ricky López, who decided to leave the group.[2] This was the last album recorded under the name Menudo.[2] The creator, Edgardo Díaz, had sold the name to a Panamanian company, so the group’s name was changed to MDO.[2] Critical receptionRegarding the reviews from music critics, the reception was favorable, with some critics pointing out that the repertoire represented a maturation of the quintet's previous works.[3] The critic from Billboard magazine stated that the melodies were catchy and highlighted the romantic lyrics and vocal harmonies.[4] He pointed out that "Más Y Más," with an upbeat pop/dance rhythm, "Buscando Un Amor," with reggae influences, and the ballad "Tiempo De Amar" would particularly appeal to pre-adolescent female audiences.[4] Commercial performanceThe album generated two radio hits for the group: the song "No Entiendo" reached number 9 on the Billboard Latin Pop Airplay chart,[5] where it remained for nine consecutive weeks.[6] The single "Dónde Está Tu Amor" achieved the same feat, reaching number 9,[7] and stayed on the chart for eight weeks.[6] The album was commercially successful in Colombia after a long hiatus for the group in the country.[3] Tracklist
