For the first time, Luis Fonsi wrote or co-wrote all the tracks on the forthcoming CD "Palabras del Silencio,"

In this Univision.Com interview, Fonsi described the song as inspiring for those who question whether the quest is worth pursuing:

"Esta canción transmite lo importante que es la perseverancia en la vida y en el amor. Nos demuestra que cada día cuenta y que vale la pena luchar por lo que más queremos.

Luis Fonsi co-produced "Palabras del Silencio," with Sebastian Krys, Armando Ávila and Jacobo Calderón. The CD will be released August 26 in various CD, CD+DVD, amd mobile formats.

In his career, Luis Fonsi has sold more than two million CDs. His latest albums include "Paso a paso" (2005) and "Éxitos 98:06" (2006).

Like many storied pop singers before him, Luis Fonsi has several things going for him from talent and strategic collaborations to youth and good looks.
