  Brazilian singer-songwriter Roberto Carlos recorded his Super Héroe released in late 1991 and produced by Roberto Livi. The album is the follow-up to the self-titled album by Carlos that was awarded the Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Performance in 1989. Carlos was joined by Spanish singer-songwriter Rocío Dúrcal on the recording of "Si Piensas, Si Quieres", a song about a couple that splits and want to get back together. Upon release in late 1991, the song became a success peaking at the top of the Billboard's Latin Songs chart (formerly Hot Latin Tracks), becoming the third number-one single for Carlos in the chart following "Si El Amor Se Va" ("If Love Goes Away") (1988) and "Abre las Ventanas al Amor" ("Open the Windows for Love") (1990), and also the third for Dúrcal after "La Guirnalda" ("The Garland") (1986) and "Como Tu Mujer" ("As Your Woman") (1989).
