Background and development
Fernández first announced his collaboration with Aguilera in May 2013, during which time he was "putting the finishing touches" on his then-upcoming studio album Confidencias. Their rendition was produced by Phil Ramone. When discussing the project, Fernández commented that "Christina has an amazing voice, sweet but also very powerful and full of healing", and was "very happy and proud with the result".[8] Their cover version is used as the theme song for the Mexican telenovela La Tempestad.[9]
Critical reception
Upon its release, "Hoy Tengo Ganas de Ti" received generally favorable reviews from music critics. Tom Jurek of AllMusic called it a "smash", and listed it as one of three stand-out tracks from Confidencias.[10] A writer for MuuMuse described the cover as a "duet for the ages" and complimented their vocal performance for being "legendary".[11] Another contributor to the website opined that Aguilera's performance "subsequently rendered all other Spanish language music irrelevant upon its release."[12] Perez Hilton praised the song for emphasizing the "power, feeling and all the right touches in all the right places,"[13] and Rolling Stone's Lucas Villa labelled it as "breathtaking".[14] At the 2014 Billboard Latin Music Awards "Hoy Tengo Ganas de Ti" was nominated Hot Latin Song of the Year, Vocal Event,[15] but lost to "Loco" by Enrique Iglesias and Romeo Santos.[16]
