"Serenade" is a song by the Spanish rock band Dover. Written by Cristina Llanos, the track was released in 1997 as the first single from the band's second studio album, Devil Came to Me (1997). This song was the first single that also became his first number one because of its rhythms and catchy chorus. It is the most chanted song in their concerts, making it an anthem for this group.

The singer, guitarist and composer of the theme, Cristina Llanos, admits it's the most personal song she ever wrote. She is usually very shy and reserved and wanted to talk about it in this song, "asking" help to stop being so.
The music video for this song was made by Juan Bullón, a friend of the band with whom they previously worked in the video for "Come with Me" from the first album "Sister". [3]
All tracks are written by Cristina Llanos.
