It was released as the lead single from his eleventh studio album Nada Es Igual... on 15 July 1996 to radio stations. "Dame" was recorded at the Record Plant studio in Los Angeles, California. The song incorporates R&B and hip-hop influences. The music video for "Dame" was directed by Marcus Nispel and filmed at the Mojave Desert in California and was nominated Video of the Year. It received mixed reactions from music critics who felt that the track sounded too similar to his previous pop recordings. "Dame" peaked at number two and one on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs and Latin Pop Songs charts in the United States and received a BMI Latin Award in 1998.
context_section_description: The music video for "Dame" was direct by German director Marcus Nispel, who has also directed "Runaway" by Janet Jackson. Filming took place on  29 and 30 June 1996 in the Mojave Desert near Los Angeles, California and took two hours to complete. The total cost of the video was US$250,000. The video features Miguel and a group of trumpeters who are dressed in a black suit; black-and-white scenes with a woman, and explosions in the background. During the previous scenes 375 kilos of dynamite were used. Miguel did not want a body double during the explosion scenes as he "did not want to leave this experience behind". The total cost of the video was US$250,000. Achy Obejas of the Chicago Tribune opined: "There's Luis Miguel, unshaven, looking haggard, wearing a suit in the middle of the Mojave. He's not all that toned, he's just a guy: An hombre, not a muchacho anymore." It received a nomination for Video of the Year at the 1997 Lo Nuestro Awards, but lost to "La Aurora" by Eros Ramazzotti.
