Libra (Julio Iglesias album)
Libra (Pound) is a Julio Iglesias album released in 1985. The album was his first to reach number-one on the Latin Pop Album charts. Around this time, Iglesias returned to his roots, singing in his native Spanish again, although it had one English-language track, his version of Cole Porter's legendary classic "I've Got You Under My Skin". It was released as a single, and became a minor hit around Europe.

gollark: Plus I can be smugly superior to people.
gollark: Using Arch everywhere gives me a relatively consistent environment, and I like that it's rolling release and lightweight.
gollark: I really should get LDAP working properly.
gollark: I run on entirely Linux, and somehow entirely *Arch* Linux.
gollark: Loud rack servers instead of... also loud tower servers, VMs instead of containers, Windows instead of Linux, bizarrely convoluted nested reverse proxies for some reason, old PHP/ASP applications instead of my shinier Node/Python ones, sort of thing.
