"Burbujas de Amor" ("Love Bubbles") is a song by Dominican singer-songwriter Juan Luis Guerra, released as the third single of his album Bachata Rosa (1990).[1] It is widely considered one of Guerra's most popular songs. The song was a commercial success and became an international hit in Europe and Latin America. It peaked at number 2 on the Hot Latin Songs chart. The track received universal acclaim from critics and was praised for its sophisticated lyrics and elegance. The song was marketed as a bachata; however, it's musical form is actually bolero.

In 1990, Burbujas de Amor was rated 8th of the Top Hot Latin Tracks in the United States by Billboard magazine.[2] It was named Song of the Year of 1990 by Billboard's Latin music critics.[3] The song won Tropical/Salsa Song of the Year at Premios Lo Nuestro 1991.[4] In 2015, it was placed 8th on Billboard's Top 50 Best Latin Songs of All Time.[5] It was listed at number 21 on Rolling Stone's list of 50 Greatest Latin Pop Songs in 2018.[6]

It was covered by the Brazilian singer Fagner as Borbulhas de Amor.[7]
