Kimberley Rew wrote "Que Te Quiero", words and music, and it turned up on Walking on Sunshine, the 1983 debut album from English new wave band Katrina and the Waves, a record that officially came out only in Canada, on Attic. Pat Collier produced, engineered and mixed it, keeping the whole job in one pair of hands.

In January 1984 it went out as a UK single and scraped to 84 on the chart there. The same album holds the original "Walking on Sunshine", the song the band recut two years later and turned into their biggest American hit, and those first recordings are now available everywhere on The Original Recordings 1983–1984, a compilation from 2003.
