Cara de Ángel (Spanish: Angel Face) is the 20th Studio album by Puerto Rican singer Yolandita Monge. It was the singer's first album for WEA Latina and was released in 1992. Once again Venezuelan singer/songwriter Ricardo Montaner was involved in the songwriting of some of the songs. It includes the radio hits "Sobreviviré", "Entrega Total", "Angel Caído" and the club hit "Viviré Sin Tí". The album's cover picture was taken by late photographer and stylist Raúl Torres and is a black and white picture, later color painted.
The song "Viviré Sin Tí" was remixed by DJs Pablo Flores and Javier Garza, and became a club hit in Puerto Rico and USA. This song marked the third consecutive dance club hit for the singer. Monge filmed very stylish music videos for the tracks "Sobreviviré" and "'Viviré Sin Tí". The singer also filmed a TV Special performing five of the album's tracks, that aired before the album's release. Monge performed twelve sold out concerts at Centro de Bellas Artes in 1992 and set a record for any female performer at the venue.
This album features the musical pop tendencies at the time, moving away from the melodramatic lyrics and arrangements of past productions from the 80's. This is also an album that created high expectations because it was her return to music after a temporary hiatus due to her third pregnancy, Imanol Mamery. The album also represents the first release under her new record label WEA Latina (Warner), after 12 years with CBS (Sony Music). Said contract was one of the most lucrative for any Puerto Rican female singer at the time.
The first printing of this album included an alternate version of the title track in place of the song "Angel Caído". The second printing corrected the "mistake" and included the missing track. This first printing of the CD is a sought after collector's item to many die hard fans. This album earned Gold, Platinum and Double Platinum status and is currently out of print in all formats.
