Biography
Lissette Ãlvarez Chorens, born on March 10, 1947, in Lima, Peru, is a Cuban-American singer and songwriter mononymously known as Lissette. She began her music career in Cuba, recording "El ratoncito Miguel" with her legendary parents Olga Chorens and Tony Ãlvarez. After moving to Puerto Rico, Lissette quickly established herself as a prominent figure in the music scene, gaining popularity with hits like "Poema 20," "Entre las flores," and "Cabecita loca" in the 1960s. Her career saw a significant boost in 1972 with the release of "Falsedad," which topped the charts and was included in her album En Nombre del Amor. Throughout the 1970s, Lissette continued to release successful songs, including "Martes dos de la tarde," "Lo voy a dividir," and "Soy." In 1983, she recorded a Spanish version of Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart," titled "Eclipse total del amor," which became a major hit across Latin America. The song was included in her 1984 album Caricatura and was followed by other popular tracks such as "Fuego" and "Enamorados." Lissette continued to produce hits in the following years, with notable albums like Maniquà (1987), which featured "Gente" and "Cómo decirte," and Asuntos de Mujer (1989), which included "Amantes por atracción." In the 1990s, Lissette maintained her relevance with songs like "Mal sueño" from the album Proyecciones (1991) and "Apaga la luz," a duet with Donato Poveda. During this time, she also had some of her original compositions recorded by other prominent artists such as Mirla Castellanos, Glenn Monroig, Willy Chirino, and Chucho Avellanet. Following the release of her 2002 English album Empty Room and 2004's La LÃnea de la Vida, Lissette returned with the joint LP Amarraditos, an album of duets with her husband, Willy Chirino. Soles, her fiftieth full-length, arrived in 2012.
