El viaje de Copperpot (Copperpot`s Voyage) is Spanish pop rock band La Oreja de Van Gogh`s second studio album, issued by Epic Records on 11 September 2000. It was the band`s first album to feature a bonus track.
El viaje de Copperpot is the band`s most successful album in Spain; after going platinum on its release day,[2] it sold more than 1,300,000 copies and received a diamond certification. The album also catapulted the band`s fame in Latin America going 3× Platinum in Mexico (under Mexican certification before 2001, 750,000 was 3× Platinum, but today it would be Diamond or 7× Platinum). Over 2,000,000 copies were sold worldwide. The album`s title is inspired by Chester Copperpot, a scavenger in the film The Goonies.
It received generally favourable reviews from critics and produced eight Top 20 singles, including "Cuidate", "La Playa" and "Paris" which reached the No.1 spot on the Spain chart; as well as the hits "Mariposa" and "Soledad".
