Promotion
Singles The first single from the album was "Tormento", whose official video, launched on Vevo, was inspired by Serbian artist Marina Abramović. The second single was the ballad "Amor completo", which Laferte wrote at a time when she was in love. The video was recorded in Mexico City and is made up of scenes showing a romantic day out with the actor playing Mon's love interest. The third single, and her biggest hit up to that time, was "Tu falta de querer". Laferte wrote this song at a difficult time when she had just broken up with her boyfriend, which plunged her into a deep depression. The fourth single is a song with a Mexican flavour, "Si tu me quisieras". This song was included in the re-release of the Vol. 1 album when it was picked up by the label Universal Music Mexico.
