After much anticipation, Christina Aguilera and Alejandro Fernandez have released their new duet "Hoy Tengo Ganas De Ti," which is available for purchase on iTunes in the U.S. and Mexico.
The song was created for the new telenovela "La Tempestad" -- "The Tempest" -- that aired in Mexico yesterday and stars the likes of William Levy and former Miss Universe, Ximena Navarrete.
Fernandez described the song in an interview with Todo Para La Mujer magazine as vibrant, passionate and romantic as the novela itself.
He also wrote a press release praising the song and the effort put in by Aguilera, boasting confidence that this track will be a hit, the Huffington Post reported.
"This album is a classic, a gem from my point of view. It has taken a long time because good things take time," said Fernández. "Christina has an amazing voice, sweet but also very powerful and full of feeling. I feel very happy and proud of the result."
You can listen to the duet below.
"La Tempestad" is a tale of young Marina, played by Navarrete, who is recently fired from her job for reporting a co-worker for sexually abusing a woman at their work. She soon finds out that her mother has been diagnosed with a serious illness and must move away, Latinos Post reported.
Meanwhile, Damian, played by Levy, is a captain of a boat working at a factory called "El Neptuno," where Marina is eventually offered a job by Mercedes, played by Daniela Romo.
Turns out, Mercedes is Marina's real mother who was forced to give up her child at a young age. Eventually, she encounters the scheming Hernan Saldana, played by Ivan Sanchez, who is conducting illegal business in order to ruin El Neptuno. She must then team up with Damian in order to save the company.
Univision gave no word about a U.S. release date, but it is rumored to be hitting TV screens this fall.
