Todo Cambió (English: Everything Changed) is the debut studio album recorded by Mexican pop rock band Camila. It was released by Sony BMG Norte on May 9, 2006. The album was mainly written and composed by the band members: Samo, Pablo Hurtado, and Mario Domm,[1] and includes a blend of Spanish rock and Latin pop.
It was released in Mexico on April 18, 2006, where it was eventually certified three-times platinum with sales over 300,000 units. In the United States, the release date was set on May 9, 2006 and the album received a platinum certification by the Latin field of the Recording Industry Association of America on July 24, 2007. In Spain the album was released on May 13, 2008.
This album yielded eight singles, including: "Abrázame", "Coleccionista de Canciones", "Todo Cambió", "Sin Tu Amor", "Sólo Para Tí", "Yo Quiero", "Me Da Igual" and "Perderte de Nuevo". For the album's release in Spain, "Todo Cambió" was chosen as the lead single.
About the album composing and recording, the band declared: "We came out from a garage, the living room and the closet, not to compete, only to show little fragments of our lives through the music we make." While producing Reyli Barba's album, Mario Domm asked Samo to participate on backing vocals, and on those recording sessions decided to make a band. Pablo Hurtado had to make an audition for the gig of guitar player, and after that, they wrote the songs for the album. Regarding the song style and inspiration, Mario Domm wanted to let people hear the music they were creating in their living rooms and to express how much joy they had performing together. Samo (a former church performer) found his inspiration watching television, singing along with other performers, stating: "Everything I learned is on these lyrics." Pablo Hurtado, the youngest member of the band, dedicates his lyrics to "weekend love affairs" and about the track "Me Da Igual" he says: "I wrote it on a very hard moment of my life, it is about a love that never happened."[2]
The title track has been the recipient of many awards and nominations, including a Latin Grammy Award nomination for Song of the Year in 2007 and the Best Song award at the Premios Lo Nuestro 2008, where the band also won in the Group or Duo of the year field. For the Premios Juventud of 2008 the group received the following nominations: Red Hot Artist, Catchiest Tune ("Todo Cambió"), CD to die for (Todo Cambió: Special Edition), and won for Best Ballad ("Todo Cambió") and Favorite Pop Star. At the 2007 Latin Billboard Music Awards, the band won for Duo or Group of the Year and Latin Pop Airplay Song of the Year ("Todo Cambió"). The album was also nominated for Latin Album of the Year. Camila also won two awards at Los Premios MTV Latinoamérica for Best New Artist - North and Breakthrough Artist.
