Amar Es (English: To Love Is) is the eighth studio album recorded by Mexican singer-songwriter Cristian Castro. It was released by BMG U.S. Latin on September 30, 2003 (see 2003 in music). This album was produced by Emilio Estefan Jr., co-produced by Randall M. Barlow, Federico Ehrlich, Roberto Livi and Rudy Pérez. Amar Es, which translates to English as "To Love Is", is notable for its eclectic use of languages and musical styles. The song "Why", for example, is in English, whilst the lead single "No Hace Falta" combines Japanese and Latin pop. On the other hand, tracks such as the successful single『Te Llamé』hold fast to Castro's Latin-pop roots.
