[edit] The song

The song was written by Xabier San Martín (member of the Spanish band La Oreja de Van Gogh) and was released on radio on July 24, 2006. The song was released on iTunes Store on August 15, 2006, becoming Rubio's first digital single after fans petitioned for a legal way to obtain it prior to the album hitting stores. The single was certified Triple-Platinum in Spain in Spring 2007 for more than 60,000 downloads.

Rubio talked the following about the song [1]:

"Ni Una Sola Palabra" is a song that captivated me from the first time I heard it, the lyrics, the rhythm... I can relate to it completely. In the process of its recording and production, it shone right from the beginning... I am very happy to be able to hand out something that I am very proud of. I love it! And I hope that people will enjoy it as much as I do.

The video was produced by Todd Young and directed by Paul Boyd. The video features Paulina Rubio as super hero Pauwer-woman, whose habitat includes the skyscrapers of downtown Los Angeles. During the video, Rubio rescues a young girl from a group of criminals. "Ni Una Sola Palabra" is also Rubio's first music video (since 2001's "Yo No Soy Esa Mujer") to feature her Pomeranian dog, Miranda. The music video was released on Latin music video stations on August 31, 2006.
