Descanso dominical is the fifth studio album by Spanish pop band Mecano. It was released on 24 May 1988, in Spain and Spanish America, 1989 in Italy and 1990 in France under Ariola Records. This was the album that reaffirmed their stardom as worldwide artists. Before its release, this album was intended to be a 2-disc album due to the large amount of material, but that intent was cancelled. The album is also known in France as Une Femme Avec Une Femme and as Figlio della Luna in Italy. The title of the album was taken from a line in the fifth single "El blues del esclavo". After gaining success and global recognition with their fourth studio album Entre el cielo y el suelo with characterized ballads and low-rhythm songs that tell stories, Mecano changed their sound and recuperated their new wave textures from their first two records, Mecano and ¿Dónde está el país de las hadas?. The album spawned 6 singles, "No Hay Marcha en Nueva York", "Los Amantes", "Mujer Contra Mujer", "Un Año Más", "La Fuerza del Destino" and "El Blues del Esclavo", all of them being released from June 1988 to July 1989.
