on 12 October 2007 Luz released a new single "Se Feliz" (Be Happy) from her new album, Vida Tóxica (Toxic Life), inspired by her experience with chemotherapy. The album was recorded and mixed in London, once again, with Darren Allison and the same team of musicians who had performed on Como La Flor Prometida, with the addition of bass guitarist Pino Palladino. Vida Tóxica appeared in November 2007. On 29 September 2009, she published a new album called La Pasión (The Passion), an album in which the singer paid homage to the most important bolero singers from the 1940s to the 1960s. In that album, she made versions of songs such as "Alma Mía" (My Soul), "Cenizas" (Ashes), and "Historia De Un Amor" (The History of a Love). This album went gold in Spain and platinum in France. Apart from the release of the new album, Luz Casal was awarded with the Medal Of Arts And Culture of France which coincided with the release of her new album. In 2011 she released "Un ramo de rosas", a compilation album of all the love songs and boleros she recorded during her career. Two years after this release in 2013 the singer launched a new studio album called "Almas gemelas" (Twin souls) in which the song "¿Por qué no vuelves, amor?" (Why don't you return, my love?) was presented as the first and only singles. After a long hiatus, in 2017 in France, Luz released an album with covers of Dalida, the French diva who inspired many of Casal's songs. One year later, back in Spain, she launched the album "Que corra el aire" (Let the air flow), which was greeted by her fans and also very well received critically.
