"Siempre Contigo" ("Always with You") is a written and produced by Rafael Pérez-Botija and performed by Mexican entertainer Lucero on the 1994 album of the same name.[1] It was released as a lead single on the days leading up to the release date of the album. The song, along with the entire album, marked a return for Lucero to recording ballads following her ranchera album, Cariño de Mis Cariños, also released in the same year.[2] Pérez-Botija had previously collaborated with Lucero composing hit songs like "Electricidad".[3] The song became her first and (to date) only number one hit on the Billboard Latin Pop Airplay chart in 1995.[4] The song has been covered by Tejana singer Emily on her 1999 album of the same name.[5] In 2023, Lucero released a poorly mixed version of the track entitled "Siempre Contigo (Lucero Contigo)" to thank the fans who have been supporting her "since day one", according to El Informador.[6]
