"Color Esperanza" (approximately in English: The "Hope" Color) is the lead single from Diego Torres's fifth studio album Un Mundo Diferente.
The songs lyrics reflect on themes of hope and overcoming hard times in life and the song's uplifting beat reflects the lyrical themes. The song was written by Torres along with Cachorro López, the song's producer, Coti Sorokin and Spanish journalist Paco García Caridad. The song was performed on MTV Unplugged featuring group La Chilinguita.
In 2003, the song was performed specially by Torres for the Pope John Paul II in Cuatro Vientos Airport in Madrid, Spain by the festival of the Youth, in order to welcome the Pope.
A music video for the song was directed by Nahuel Lerena and Eduardo Pinto with whom Torres has worked in previous videos.
With a simple plot, the video begins with Torres sleeping in a bed, where he later begins to dream and finds himself in a forest where the landscape is green with a beautiful lake where everything revolves around the song.
The music video was nominated for the video of the year on the MTV Video Music Awards Latinoamérica 2002.
