Enamorada de Ti (English: In Love with You) is the second remix album by American Tejano singer Selena. It was released posthumously on 3 April 2012 through Capitol Latin and Q-Productions. Enamorada de Ti was produced by Sergio Lopes, Leslie Ahrens, Andres Castro, Moggie Canazio, Cesar Lemons and Chilean record producer Humberto Gatica. Gatica had the idea of modernizing songs recorded by Selena into today's popular music genres. Selena's family had already been working on a similar idea, but they set it aside in favor of Enamorada de Ti, which had gained the approval of Capitol Latin. The selection of artists to sing duets with Selena began in late summer 2011. Gatica and Selena's family chose American singer and actress Selena Gomez, Puerto Rican singer Don Omar, Samuel "Samo" Parra from the Mexican rock band Camila, Mexican singer Cristian Castro, Spanish DJ mixer Juan Magan, and the Carlos Santana band, while the remaining songs selected were remixed.
Recording sessions began shortly after the selected artists had been chosen. Once Selena's family released confirmation of a duets album in January 2012, it quickly caught media attention. Gomez used her Twitter account to promote the album's release, a move that Gatica praised. Castro and Samo performed their respective duets from the album during the 2012 Latin Billboard Music Awards. The duet version of "Amor Prohibido" was released digitally on iTunes on 7 February 2012. It peaked at number eight on the US Billboard Latin Pop Airplay chart. Other songs on the album, including the title track (duet with Magan), "Como la Flor" (duet with Castro), "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom" (duet with Gomez), and "Fotos y Recuerdos" (duet with Omar), entered the Billboard Latin digital charts for the first time since their original release in the 1990s.
Enamorada de Ti debuted and peaked at number one on the US Billboard Top Latin Albums and Latin Pop Albums charts. It remained at number one on the latter for two consecutive weeks. After debuting and peaking at number 135 on the Billboard 200 chart, the recording slipped off the chart and never returned, as sales declined. Enamorada de Ti peaked at number 56 on the Mexican Albums Chart. The album received a mixed response from music critics, many of whom preferred the original recordings. Carlos Quintana of About.com named Enamorada de Ti one of the "Best Latin Music Albums of the Year, So Far" and one of the "Most Popular Albums of the Year" in 2012.
