The first single of the album was "Xdono", which became a #1 hit in his home country of Italy and earned Ferro popularity among the rest of Europe and the Americas. Ferro also released a Spanish version of the album called Rojo relativo, which made him famous in countries such as Mexico, the rest of South America and Puerto Rico.

The single "Perdona" was well received in Latin American countries, but it was not until the release of the single "Alucinado" that Ferro was established as an international star in Latin America.

Commercial reception

edit

The album, through its many editions for different parts of the world, is still the most commercially successful release from the singer, with more than 2.5 million copies sold worldwide. Its singles also managed to obtain good positions on radio charts in many countries outside of Italy.

The single "Xdono" from the album made Ferro known to the general public and obtained a flattering 3rd place in the best-selling singles in Europe in 2002, placing only after singles by worldwide superstars Eminem and Shakira.[3]

The Spanish single "Alucinado", from the Spanish-language version of the album, further solidified Ferro's career in Latin America, obtaining #1 placings in the charts of Mexico, Chile and Spain, as well as becoming a top five hit on the U.S. Billboard Hot Latin Songs. In Turkey, Tiziano Ferro's Rosso Relativo album was released on 6 June 2003.
