New York, NY - It's been over a decade since Julio Iglesias last released a Spanish-language album with "Divorcio" in 2003. Now, 12 years later, the romantic crooner from Spain will release "Mexico," his new studio album set for release on September 25, 2015.

In this album, which includes 12 tracks with Mexican flavor, Iglesias pays homage to Mexico's greatest songwriters. "This record is dedicated to the outstanding composers who, generation after generation, filled our lives with love, nostalgia, memories and moments. After all these years, they remain alive in our souls. With all my respect and profound admiration," he said.

This isn't the first time that the 71-year-old GRAMMY Award-winning singer pays tribute to the country. His first album to Mexico was in 1976, following his first performance in the country, where he quickly won over the support of many.

"Mexico is a country that I love dearly. The Mexican people have given me many indelible moments in my life. I know this country as if it was my homeland, and I always carry it in my soul. Mexican music is universal, and its composers are legendary," Mr. Iglesias said.

"Mexico" is now available for pre-order on iTunes.
