To promote the original version of the song, Martin performed it on many television programs and award shows, including the MTV Video Music Awards and the World Music Awards in 1999.

Many bands and singers covered the song, and it has been featured in several films and video games.

Background and release edit

In February 1999, Ricky Martin performed his smash hit "The Cup of Life" at the 41st Annual Grammy Awards, which was greeted with a massive standing ovation and met with acclaim from music critics.[1][2][3] On October 22, 1998, CNN confirmed that Martin had started working on his first English language album, following the success of Vuelve.[4] On March 6, 1999, almost two weeks after his Grammy performance, Billboard revealed the lead single's name as "Livin' la Vida Loca" in an article and mentioned that it is set for release later that month.[5] Martin wrote about the recording of the song in his book:

I would go so far as to say that during the process of recording the song we actually made magic. For "Livin' la Vida Loca" I had the good fortune of working once again with Draco Rosa and Desmond Child. Although I had made several records, I quickly realized that working with Desmond Child is working at an entirely new level.[6]

In 2018, during an interview with Attitude, Martin told the magazine that the release of the song was not decided until he started working on "Be Careful (Cuidado Con Mi Corazón)" with Madonna: "This album was almost going to be released without 'Livin' la Vida Loca', but three days before I walked into the studio with Madonna, we were done with 'Livin' La Vida Loca', so I showed her what I was presenting – and she was like, 'Yep! I'm ready to go into the studio with you!"[7]

Columbia Records released "Livin' la Vida Loca" to radio stations on March 27, 1999, as the lead single from the album.[8] Afterwards, standard-length commercial formats were released in the United States on April 20, 1999.[9][10] It was included as the first track on Martin's fifth studio album Ricky Martin, released May 11, 1999, and the Spanish version was included as the eleventh track.[11] On July 5, three remixes were released as a CD single in Germany,[12] Italy,[13] Spain,[14] and the United Kingdom.[15][16][17]

Musically, "Livin' la Vida Loca" is a Latin pop and dance song with elements of salsa, surf, and ska,[25] that features Latin percussion rhythms and horn riffs mixed with surf rock-inspired guitar riffs.[19][20][21] Suzy Exposito from Rolling Stone described the track as "salsa-rock fusion", and Marc Oxoby described it as an "energetic dance single" in his book, The 1990s.[22][23] Larry Flick from Billboard named it a "rock-etched uptempo tune".[9] During an interview with Digital Spy, Martin said that he has reworked the song several times for concerts, changing it "from heavy hardcore rock to being exclusively influenced by ska and it's been urban as well!"[24] According to the sheet music published by Alfred Publishing on Musicnotes.com, "Livin' la Vida Loca" is composed in the key of C♯ minor with a groove of 140 beats per minute.[26] Martin's vocals span from the low note of C♯ to the high note of G♯4.[26] The construction includes a syncopated brass intro and a Spanish chorus.[27]

"Livin' la Vida Loca" was written by American musicians Draco Rosa and Desmond Child, with its production being handled by Desmond Child. Also, Spanish songwriter Luis Gómez Escolar joined the original version's lyricists to write the Spanish version.[28] The original version of the song runs for a total of 4 minutes and 3 seconds,[11] and was recorded without using then-conventional recording studio equipment; instead, the track was created at Desmond Child's Gentlemen's Club Studio,[29] which uses a 169-track Pro Tools digital system.[30] The recording is also noted for its exceptional use of dynamic range compression to increase the track's perceived loudness.[31] Lyrically, "Livin' la Vida Loca", which translates to "Livin' the Crazy Life" in English,[18][32] is about an irresistible, particularly sinister wild woman who lives on the edge, seducing others into her crazy world,[18][19] with lyrics including, "Upside, inside out / She's livin' la vida loca / She'll push and pull you down / Livin' la vida loca".[33] Throughout the song, Martin sings about an evil seductress, who makes him go "dancing in the rain", and leaves him broke and alone in a "funky cheap hotel".[34]

Music video edit

Development and synopsis edit

 
A screenshot from the music video, depicting Martin performing in a nightclub.

The accompanying music video was filmed in Los Angeles, California, and directed by American director Wayne Isham,[146][147] who had also directed the videos for Martin's previous singles "Vuelve", "The Cup of Life", and "La Bomba".[148][149] The video cost US$500,000 making it one of the most expensive music videos ever made.[150] The visual was aired on March 25, 1999, on MTV,[151] and begins with a scene, showing a car hitting a fire hydrant on the sidewalk. Then, Martin is seen wearing a black shirt and pants, walking on stage in a nightclub and performing the song and dancing to it, backed by his band, playing horns, while a group of dancers and party-ready crowd are dancing to the song.[152][153][154]

At night, a young wild woman, portrayed by Croatian model Nina Morić, sits next to Martin, as he drives a car. She lives the ultimate crazy life and drives him crazy too, and shimmies and dances nearby. Lying on a pale brown blanket, he wakes up in a cheap New York City motel, and the woman grabs his hand from the window and brings him out. They flirt and kiss, while they walk on the sidewalk, and then Martin takes his jacket off and they kiss while dancing in the rain. In one of the later scenes, Martin is distracted while driving causing him to veer in another lane, resulting in another car knocking out a fire hydrant. Several women take their clothes off and dance in the rain, which is similar to the lyrics of the song.[33] The video ends with Martin's performance on the stage.[152][153][154]

Reception edit

TheThings ranked "Livin' la Vida Loca" as the 10th most iconic pop music video from the 1990s.[56] Leila Cobo from Billboard gave the video a positive review, saying: "From the moment he sashayed up to the mic in 'Livin La Vida Loca' all dressed in black, and gave us that look, the Menudo alum became the most memorable and watchable drop-dead handsome guy in pop music."[155] Also from Billboard, Larry Flick described it as "high-tech" and "ultra-sexy", mentioning the fact that it had "gotten strong attention from video out-lets like MTV and VH1".[9] Cristal Mesa from mitú named it Martin's best music video on her 2018 list,[156] and an author of Cultura Colectiva listed "Livin' la Vida Loca" among the "13 Videos to Appreciate Ricky Martin's Talent and Sickening Good Looks".[157] The music video has received a number of awards and nominations. At the 1999 MTV Video Music Awards, it was nominated for several categories, including Video of the Year, making Martin the first Latin artist in history to receive a nomination in this category.[158][159] It won two primary awards for Best Pop Video and Best Dance Video,[155] and was voted three additional awards in the International Viewer's Choice categories,[160] making it rank among the videos with most wins in the history of the MTV Video Music Awards.[152] Since then, Martin has become the most awarded Latin artist of all time in the ceremony.[161]

Valdez from Latin Times ranked his rendition as the sixth performance by a Latin artist at the MTV Video Music Awards, saying: "At the beginning we thought it was going to be a mystic performance, slow and focused on the vocals, but eventually it became a party and you definitely gotta see some of Ricky's best moves on full display during that performance."[178] Wonderwall.com editors picked his performance as one of their favorite moments from MTV VMAs until 2020.[179]

"Livin' la Vida Loca" was included on the set lists for Martin's the Livin' la Vida Loca Tour,[180] the One Night Only with Ricky Martin tour,[181] the Black and White Tour,[182] the Música + Alma + Sexo World Tour,[183] the Ricky Martin Live tour,[184] the Live in Mexico tour,[185] the One World Tour,[186] the All In residency,[187] the Ricky Martin en Concierto,[188] the Movimiento Tour,[189] and the Enrique Iglesias and Ricky Martin Live in Concert tour.[190] Martin's performance of the song in Puerto Rico during the Black and White Tour was included on the live album Ricky Martin...

She teased the crowd before bringing him out, saying: "I'm about to bring out somebody whose album I bought when I was 10. When he came out, he paved the way for so many incredible Latin artists to cross over to pop and become huge and make amazing music. He's such an inspiring person, I'm so lucky to have him here tonight."[195]

The 2000 album La Vida Mickey features re-make versions of Latin/pop songs with the voices of the Disney characters in the background singing along, and its title track, which is performed by Mark Lennon is a re-make of "Livin' la Vida Loca".[212] A version of the "Livin' la Vida Loca" performed by Eddie Murphy and Antonio Banderas (Donkey and Puss in Boots voice roles) is played at the end of the 2004 American computer-animated comedy film Shrek 2,[213] which also appears on its soundtrack. The Guardian described their performance as exuberant and as of April 2007, this cover version and Murphy's cover of "I'm a Believer" have sold over 3.6 million copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.[214][215] The original Martin's song was also featured in the American live-action/computer-animated adventure comedy film The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run (2020),[216] the Mexican mystery thriller streaming television series Who Killed Sara? (2021),[217] and the Ubisoft video games Just Dance 4 (2012)[218] Far Cry 6 (2021).[219] A pop-punk version of the song was played in the action role-playing video game Gotham Knights (2022).[220]

The song has been covered by many contestants on various music talent shows. Chico Slimani performed "Livin' la Vida Loca" on series two of The X Factor in 2005.[221] Ray Quinn performed it on series three in 2006,[222][223] Wagner on series seven in 2010,[224][225] Stevi Ritchie on series 11 in 2014,[226] and Matt Linnen on series 14 in 2017.[227] In 2018, Luke Anthony covered the track on season seven of The Voice Australia, while his rendition failed to impress the audience.[228] Princess La Tremenda and Kynnie Williams delivered a performance of the song on the third season of The Voice Brasil in 2014.[229] Joey Fatone performed the song as "Rabbit" on the first season of the American television series The Masked Singer in 2019.[230] On the second season of The Masked Singer Australia in 2020, Simon Pryce gave it a performance as "Puppet".[231]

Legacy and influence edit

"The singer's mega hit came out in 1999, and helped turn the late '90s into a Latin pop explosion."

—Entertainment Tonight's Liz Calvario in 2019.[42]

Martin is regarded by the media as the "Original Latin Crossover King".[232] Angie Romero from Billboard wrote: "If you look up 'crossover' in the dictionary, there should be a photo of Ricky shaking his bon bon and/or 'Livin' la Vida Loca'."[233] Following his performance of "The Cup of Life" at the Grammys, and the success of "Livin' la Vida Loca" and Ricky Martin (1999), he opened the gates for many Latin artists such as Jennifer Lopez, Shakira, Christina Aguilera, Marc Anthony, Santana, and Enrique Iglesias who released their crossover albums and followed him onto the top of the charts.[27][44][234] According to Entertainment Tonight, "Livin' la Vida Loca" paved the way for a large number of other Latin artists,[42] and is "credited as the song that helped other Latin artists break through to English-speaking markets".[235]

As believed by Spin, the song "lit the fuse for the Latin pop explosion of the '90s". Lucas Villa from Spin wrote about it: "When the world went loca for Ricky, he led the way for other Latin music superstars like Spain's Enrique Iglesias, Colombia's Shakira and Nuyoricans like Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony to make their marks beyond the Spanish-speaking crowds."[236] He also described Martin as "a trailblazer in globalizing Latinx culture" in his Grammy.com article.[237] Also from Grammy.com, Ernesto Lechner described "Livin' la Vida Loca" as "the manifesto for all the fun-loving, tropically tinged Latin hit singles that followed", stating that Martin led "the Latin music explosion that took over the U.S. at the tail end of the '90s".[238] According to The Independent, the single is "widely regarded as the song that began the first Latin pop explosion".[239] People's Jason Sheeler credited it as the song that "led the way for the late-'90s so-called 'Latin explosion' that dominated pop music into the new century: Shakira, Enrique Iglesias, Marc Anthony, and Jennifer Lopez".[240]

Leila Cobo named the track one of the genre's biggest singles of the past 50 years in his 2021 book Decoding "Despacito": An Oral History of Latin Music.[241] She also wrote about his impact in "Whenever, Wherever" chapter: "Ricky Martin's phenomenal success opened the door for a string of Latin artists who waved the flags of their heritage, but who sang in English."[242] Additionally, she compared Martin's song with "Despacito" in one of her Billboard articles: "'Livin', like 'Despacito', became not just a global hit but a cultural phenomena that transcended all barriers of language and nationality."[78] In another article, she described it as the song that "ignited the late-'90s Latin explosion".[243] Also from Billboard, Gary Trust wrote: "The song helmed a Latin pop boom in the U.S., with Jenner Lopez, Marc Anthony and others crossing over, as well."[244] Writing for LiveAbout.com, Bill Lamb credited the song as "the record which kicked off a wave of major Latin performers hitting the pop mainstream".[72] During an interview with mitú in 2021, Colombian singer-songwriter Maluma told the channel about Latin Music globalization: "This has been work that started with Ricky Martin's 'Livin' La Vida Loca' and Shakira like 15 or 20 years ago."[245] Puerto Rican rapper and singer Wisin has described its music video as the video of another artist that has impacted him the most.[246] Colombian singer-songwriter J Balvin referenced "Livin' la Vida Loca" on his song "Reggaetón" (2018) since Martin "gave as clear a depiction of his actualized artistic dreams".[247]
