A Spanish-language version of "She Bangs" was recorded under the same title and reached the summit of the Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart in the United States. To promote the original version of the song, Martin performed it on several television programs and award shows, including both the Billboard Music Awards and the MTV Europe Music Awards in 2000. The music video for the song was filmed in the Bahamas and directed by Wayne Isham. The suggested sexual content of the video caused controversy and led to it being banned in several Latin American countries. Despite the backlash, the visual won the Latin Grammy Award for Best Music Video, the Lo Nuestro Award for Video of the Year, and the Billboard Music Video Award for Best Clip of the Year — Latin, all in 2001. The song has been covered by several artists, including William Hung on American Idol in 2004. His cover version received generally unfavorable responses from both the judges at the show and music critics.

Background and release

From 1999 to 2000, Martin embarked on his fifth tour the Livin' la Vida Loca Tour to promote his first English album Ricky Martin.[1][2] While on tour in 2000, Martin returned to the studio and began recording material for Sound Loaded.[3][4] On August 29, 2000, El Siglo de Torreón revealed the lead single's name as "She Bangs" in an article and mentioned that in addition to the original version of the song that is in English, it will feature a Spanish version. In an interview with the newspaper, Martin's then representative Ricardo Cordero said "'She Bangs' is going to show Ricky one step further up in his career", and announced the possibilities of Martin performing an acoustic concert for MTV. Also, Martin's publicist Nanette Camboy told El Siglo de Torreón that although "Ricky is still putting the final touches on his production in studios in Miami and New York", the song's music video had already been shot in the Bahamas on August 15, 2000.[5]

Columbia Records released "She Bangs" to radio stations in several countries on September 22, 2000, as the lead single from the album. Thereafter, the song was released to the singles markets in October.[5][6] "She Bangs" was included as the first track on Martin's sixth studio album Sound Loaded, released November 14, 2000, and the Spanish version was included as the tenth track.[7]

Musically, "She Bangs" is a dance song that features Latin and salsa music influences, and lasts for 4:42.[8][9][10] According to Alfred Publishing Company's digital sheet music for the song, "She Bangs" is composed in the key of F# minor and set in the time signature of common time, with a groove of 142 beats per minute.[11] Martin's vocals span from the low note of D4 to the high note of F#5.[11] The song's instrumentation features "powerful" percussion, trumpet blasts, and tropical beats.[10][12] Chris Willman of Entertainment Weekly wrote that the song begins with a "teasing snatch" of a "sputtering" Spanish guitar, before the disco beats start. The beats are followed by an "equally inevitable [...] driving" horn section, which Willman called reminiscent of the one on Martin's 1999 single "Livin' la Vida Loca".[13] "She Bangs" was written by Desmond Child, Walter Afanasieff, and Draco Rosa, while the production was handled by Afanasieff and Rosa. Also, Glenn Monroig, Julia Sierra and Daniel López joined the original version's lyricists to write the Spanish version.[14]

Lyrically, "She Bangs" is similar to the singer's previous singles "María" (1995) and "Livin la Vida Loca"; it tells a "tale of a wild woman who may be hard to let go and even harder to hold".[12] Desmond Child told ABC News that "She Bangs" is "a metaphor for the universe", and explained about it: "You know the big bang theory? So the universe is really this 'mother universe' — she bangs, and explodes [...] She moves. The planets, the galaxies, are all moving. That's what it means."[15] Billboard wrote that the song's lyrics are "insane" and will make cynics drive away in a triumph, "Talk to me, tell me the news/ You'll wear me out like a pair of shoes/We'll dance until the band goes home/Then you're gone, yeah baby."[10]

Critical reception

"She Bangs" was met with widely positive reviews from music critics. The staff of Billboard magazine praised the song and wrote that "She Bangs" is "simply manic with exuberance and energy", being designed to ignite the flavor of "Livin' la Vida Loca". According to the staff, the single was just what the radio needed at the time of release, a "summertime smash" in the fall season.[10] Also from Billboard, Taylor Mims described it as a "danceable track meshed a salsa flare with heavy rock guitar and an irresistible pop beat for universal appeal".[6] Similarly to the staff, Allison Stewart from the Chicago Tribune called the song "clamorous" but thought that it replicates "La Vida Loca".[9] Sean Piccoli and Lawrence A. Johnson of the Sun-Sentinel agreed with Stewart and noted that the resemblance of the song is a result of both songs being produced by Rosa. The two of them further noted that the song's credits include a personnel consisting of 34 people, opining the "life of any serious party knows: It's all about the entourage".[16]

Writing for O, The Oprah Magazine, Amanda Mitchell complimented the song, saying it "solidified Martin's place as a crossover artist thanks to the salsa-infused pop and the double entendre lyrics". She also ranked "She Bangs" as Martin's best song on her 2019 list.[17] In 2020, MTV Argentina ranked it as one of Martin's best songs,[18] and Luca Mastinu from Optimagazine listed it as one of Martin's five greatest hits. He also called the track a "Latin American bomb" and stated that it "is still present in the playlists of all the occasions when you need to ignite the party".[19] Geoff Boucher of the Los Angeles Times noted that the erotic images of the song and accompanying music video are "up a notch" from "Livin' la Vida Loca" "and will likely do no harm to Martin's hunk status".[12] In a review of Sound Loaded, the Orlando Sentinel's Jim Abbott labeled "She Bangs" and "Loaded" as "'bon-bon' shakers".[20] Both Felix Contreras from NPR and Rolling Stone staff described "She Bangs" as a "megahit".[21][22]

Accolades

Jose F. Promis from AllMusic called the song "electrifying" and stated that it is arguably one of best songs of the 2000s,[23] and Billboard ranked the track as the 85th greatest song of 2000.[6] At the 43rd Annual Grammy Awards in 2001, "She Bangs" was nominated for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance.[24] The track was recognized as one of the best-performing pop songs at the 2002 BMI Pop Awards.[25] At the 16th Annual International Dance Music Awards, presented in 2001, the single won the award for Best Latin 12".[26]

Music video

Development and synopsis

 
A screenshot from the music video, depicting Martin dancing in an underwater nightclub.

The music video for "She Bangs" was directed by Wayne Isham and shot at the Atlantis Paradise Island hotel in the Bahamas. Isham had worked on some of Martin's previous videos, including the ones for "La Copa de la Vida" (1998) and "Shake Your Bon-Bon".[5] The singer described the concept of the video as being part of a trilogy with "María" and "Livin' la Vida Loca", "with this girl who drives me crazy because she's crazy, she won't talk to me or tell me her name".[55] Martin told Univision he envisioned the visual taking place in Atlantis and felt that the Bahamas was the perfect place to film it.[56] Jamie King was responsible for the creative direction of the video and over 100 people were involved in the production process.[57] A body double for Martin was used during the scenes with sharks.[56] The Spanish version of the music video premiered on September 26, 2000, for the Hispanophone market, while the English version debuted on MTV's Making the Video series the following day.[58]

The video begins with a group of women on a beach at night swimming to an underwater nightclub, with Martin following them. Martin explained that filming the scene was hard for him because he had to resist without taking air for a long time, as well as having to mime the lyrics without blowing bubbles out of his mouth.[55] Upon entering the nightclub, Martin proceeds to sing "She Bangs" as he dances with the people in the club, with several scenes resembling an orgy. In one scene, Martin sees himself being seduced by mermaids and is later taken into a closet, in which he dances erotically with several women. Near the end of the visual, Martin spills a bottle of water on himself and the people nearby him. The music video concludes with him returning to the surface at daylight.[59] American actor and dancer Channing Tatum makes an appearance in the video as a shirtless bartender and dancer among many other dancers, which was at the beginning of his career.[60][61]

Reception and controversy

The explicit sexual scenes of the music video were met with criticism from the audience; several American television stations cut the scenes when airing the video. According to the Daily Record's John Dingwall, with the visual, Martin ditched his teen idol image by transforming to a more mature one.[55] It was consequently banned in several Latin American countries, such as the Dominican Republic.[62] Martin told MTV News that the video represented freedom rather than his sexuality.[63] Writing for Mitú, Cristal Mesa complimented the visual, saying: "The use of underwater Martin shots cropped onto the dance floor is pretty amazing". She also ranked "She Bangs" as Martin's 15th best music video on her 2018 list.[64] At the 2nd Annual Latin Grammy Awards in 2001, the video was awarded Best Short Form Music Video.[65] That same year, it won the award for Video of the Year at the 13th Lo Nuestro Awards, as well as Best Clip of the Year — Latin at the Billboard Music Video Awards.[66][67]

Live performances

Martin gave his first live performance of "She Bangs" on the BBC's Top of the Pops on November 3, 2000.[68] Later that year, he performed it live at the 2000 Billboard Music Awards on December 5.[69] To promote the song in Mexico, he performed it on the television programs Al Fin de Semana and Otro Rollo that same year.[70] At the 2000 MTV Europe Music Awards, Martin was accompanied by underwater dancers in tanks while he sung "She Bangs".[71] In his only North American concert of 2001, "She Bangs" was one of the songs Martin performed during the annual Wango Tango in Los Angeles.[72] In the same year, it was sung by Martin at the 43rd Annual TV Week Logie Awards.[73]

The song was included on the set lists for Martin's 2011 Música + Alma + Sexo World Tour,[74] 2013 Australian Tour,[75] and the Enrique Iglesias and Ricky Martin Live in Concert tour.[76] Martin also performed "She Bangs" along with his other hits during the 55th Viña del Mar International Song Festival on February 23, 2014.[77] He performed "Livin' la Vida Loca", "She Bangs" and "Adrenalina" with the show's finalists, and "La Copa de la Vida" with Cristina Scuccia on season two of The Voice of Italy in 2014.[78] Also, on May 13, 2015, he performed "Mr. Put It Down", "Livin' la Vida Loca", "She Bangs", and "The Cup of Life" alongside Clark Beckham, Nick Fradiani, Quentin Alexander, Qaasim Middleton, and Rayvon Owen on fourteenth season's finale of American Idol.[79]

Cover versions and appearances in media

"She Bangs" has been covered by several contestants on various music talent shows. Ronny B performed "She Bangs" on season three of America's Got Talent in 2008. His rendition was poorly received, with judge David Hasselhoff remarking that Ronny B had "zero talent", and he was immediately eliminated afterwards.[80][81] In 2020, Llama (Drew Carey) delivered a performance of "She Bangs" on season three of The Masked Singer,[82] and in 2010, Wagnar performed the track along with a cover version of "Love Shack" by the B-52's on series seven of The X Factor. Wagner was ranked as one of the most iconic X Factor contestants of all time by Grazia.[83] "She Bangs" was featured in the American computer-animated jukebox musical comedy film Sing 2 (2021).[84]

Hong Kong–born American motivational speaker and former singer William Hung gained notoriety when he auditioned for the third season of American Idol in 2004. Hung was strongly criticized for his singing and dancing; judge Simon Cowell interrupted his audition and asked him, "You can't sing, you can't dance, so what do you want me to say?"[85] Despite the negative reception, Hung gained a following after his performance and ultimately signed to Koch Entertainment.[86] Hung released a cover of "She Bangs" on his debut studio album Inspiration (2004), with the cover being generally panned. AllMusic editor Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote that Hung "sang it as if the song meant something to him even though he didn't understand the words, which gave the Berkeley civil engineering student innocence or, to some of his harsher critics, the appearance of being mildly retarded".[87] Chris Carle of IGN said that it is the "best track... but that's like saying a tetanus shot is the best kind of injection you can get".[88] Clem Bestow wrote for Stylus Magazine that Hung's performance of the song is "like a tone-deaf taxi driver and dancing like an epileptic octopus".[89] The music video for Hung's version was directed by Jeff Richter and filmed in Los Angeles.[90]

On June 3, 2018, Martin invited Hung as a surprise guest to his concert at the Monte Carlo Theater in Las Vegas, and the two performed the original together.[8] In an interview with Variety, 20 years after the release of "She Bangs", Hung told the magazine that he's "grateful" to have Martin's song, and explained that "otherwise I wouldn’t be where I am today. I just enjoyed the song right from the beginning. I thought it sounded cool and very upbeat. It was unique compared to everything else I was hearing back in the early two thousands."[91] On May 2, 2022, coinciding with American Idol's 20th anniversary, Hung returned to the show "to reprise his epic" performance of the song.[92]

English album Ricky Martin 1 2 While on tour in 2000 Martin returned to the studio and began recording material for Sound Loaded 3 4 On August 29 2000 El Siglo de Torreon revealed the lead single s name as She Bangs in an article and mentioned that in addition to the original version of the song that is in English it will feature a Spanish version In an interview with the newspaper Martin s then representative Ricardo Cordero said She Bangs is going to show Ricky one step further up in his career and announced the possibilities of Martin performing an acoustic concert for MTV Also Martin s publicist Nanette Camboy told El Siglo de Torreon that although Ricky is still putting the final touches on his production in studios in Miami and New York the song s music video had already been shot in the Bahamas on August 15 2000 5 Columbia Records released She Bangs to radio stations in several countries on September 22 2000 as the lead single from the album Thereafter the song was released to the singles markets in October 5 6 She Bangs was included as the first track on Martin s sixth studio album Sound Loaded released November 14 2000 and the Spanish version was included as the tenth track 7 Composition and lyrics Edit She Bangs source source A 15 second sample of the chorus which features an uptempo melody 8 Problems playing this file See media help Musically She Bangs is a dance song that features Latin and salsa music influences and lasts for 4 42 8 9 10 According to Alfred Publishing Company s digital sheet music for the song She Bangs is composed in the key of F minor and set in the time signature of common time with a groove of 142 beats per minute 11 Martin s vocals span from the low note of D4 to the high note of F 5 11 The song s instrumentation features powerful percussion trumpet blasts and tropical beats 10 12 Chris Willman of Entertainment Weekly wrote that the song begins with a teasing snatch of a sputtering Spanish guitar before the disco beats start The beats are followed by an equally inevitable driving horn section which Willman called reminiscent of the one on Martin s 1999 single Livin la Vida Loca 13 She Bangs was written by Desmond Child Walter Afanasieff and Draco Rosa while the production was handled by Afanasieff and Rosa Also Glenn Monroig Julia Sierra and Daniel Lopez joined the original version s lyricists to write the Spanish version 14 Lyrically She Bangs is similar to the singer s previous singles Maria 1995 and Livin la Vida Loca it tells a tale of a wild woman who may be hard to let go and even harder to hold 12 Desmond Child told ABC News that She Bangs is a metaphor for the universe and explained about it You know the big bang theory So the universe is really this mother universe she bangs and explodes She moves The planets the galaxies are all moving That s what it means 15 Billboard wrote that the song s lyrics are insane and will make cynics drive away in a triumph Talk to me tell me the news You ll wear me out like a pair of shoes We ll dance until the band goes home Then you re gone yeah baby 10 Critical reception Edit She Bangs was met with widely positive reviews from music critics The staff of Billboard magazine praised the song and wrote that She Bangs is simply manic with exuberance and energy being designed to ignite the flavor of Livin la Vida Loca According to the staff the single was just what the radio needed at the time of release a summertime smash in the fall season 10 Also from Billboard Taylor Mims described it as a danceable track meshed a salsa flare with heavy rock guitar and an irresistible pop beat for universal appeal 6 Similarly to the staff Allison Stewart from the Chicago Tribune called the song clamorous but thought that it replicates La Vida Loca 9 Sean Piccoli and Lawrence A Johnson of the Sun Sentinel agreed with Stewart and noted that the resemblance of the song is a result of both songs being produced by Rosa The two of them further noted that the song s credits include a personnel consisting of 34 people opining the life of any serious party knows It s all about the entourage 16 Writing for O The Oprah Magazine Amanda Mitchell complimented the song saying it solidified Martin s place as a crossover artist thanks to the salsa infused pop and the double entendre lyrics She also ranked She Bangs as Martin s best song on her 2019 list 17 In 2020 MTV Argentina ranked it as one of Martin s best songs 18 and Luca Mastinu from Optimagazine listed it as one of Martin s five greatest hits He also called the track a Latin American bomb and stated that it is still present in the playlists of all the occasions when you need to ignite the party 19 Geoff Boucher of the Los Angeles Times noted that the erotic images of the song and accompanying music video are up a notch from Livin la Vida Loca and will likely do no harm to Martin s hunk status 12 In a review of Sound Loaded the Orlando Sentinel s Jim Abbott labeled She Bangs and Loaded as bon bon shakers 20 Both Felix Contreras from NPR and Rolling Stone staff described She Bangs as a megahit 21 22 Accolades Edit Jose F Promis from AllMusic called the song electrifying and stated that it is arguably one of best songs of the 2000s 23 and Billboard ranked the track as the 85th greatest song of 2000 6 At the 43rd Annual Grammy Awards in 2001 She Bangs was nominated for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance 24 The track was recognized as one of the best performing pop songs at the 2002 BMI Pop Awards 25 At the 16th Annual International Dance Music Awards presented in 2001

EditDevelopment and synopsis Edit A screenshot from the music video depicting Martin dancing in an underwater nightclub The music video for She Bangs was directed by Wayne Isham and shot at the Atlantis Paradise Island hotel in the Bahamas Isham had worked on some of Martin s previous videos including the ones for La Copa de la Vida 1998 and Shake Your Bon Bon 5 The singer described the concept of the video as being part of a trilogy with Maria and Livin la Vida Loca with this girl who drives me crazy because she s crazy she won t talk to me or tell me her name 55 Martin told Univision he envisioned the visual taking place in Atlantis and felt that the Bahamas was the perfect place to film it 56 Jamie King was responsible for the creative direction of the video and over 100 people were involved in the production process 57 A body double for Martin was used during the scenes with sharks 56 The Spanish version of the music video premiered on September 26 2000 for the Hispanophone market while the English version debuted on MTV s Making the Video series the following day 58 The video begins with a group of women on a beach at night swimming to an underwater nightclub with Martin following them Martin explained that filming the scene was hard for him because he had to resist without taking air for a long time as well as having to mime the lyrics without blowing bubbles out of his mouth 55 Upon entering the nightclub Martin proceeds to sing She Bangs as he dances with the people in the club with several scenes resembling an orgy In one scene Martin sees himself being seduced by mermaids and is later taken into a closet in which he dances erotically with several women Near the end of the visual Martin spills a bottle of water on himself and the people nearby him The music video concludes with him returning to the surface at daylight 59 American actor and dancer Channing Tatum makes an appearance in the video as a shirtless bartender and dancer among many other dancers which was at the beginning of his career 60 61 Reception and controversy Edit The explicit sexual scenes of the music video were met with criticism from the audience several American television stations cut the scenes when airing the video According to the Daily Record s John Dingwall with the visual Martin ditched his teen idol image by transforming to a more mature one 55 It was consequently banned in several Latin American countries such as the Dominican Republic 62 Martin told MTV News that the video represented freedom rather than his sexuality 63 Writing for Mitu Cristal Mesa complimented the visual saying The use of underwater Martin shots cropped onto the dance floor is pretty amazing She also ranked She Bangs as Martin s 15th best music video on her 2018 list 64 At the 2nd Annual Latin Grammy Awards in 2001 the video was awarded Best Short Form Music Video 65 That same year it won the award for Video of the Year at the 13th Lo Nuestro Awards as well as Best Clip of the Year Latin at the Billboard Music Video Awards 66 67 Live performances EditMartin gave his first live performance of She Bangs on the BBC s Top of the Pops on November 3 2000 68 Later that year he performed it live at the 2000 Billboard Music Awards on December 5 69 To promote the song in Mexico he performed it on the television programs Al Fin de Semana and Otro Rollo that same year 70 At the 2000 MTV Europe Music Awards Martin was accompanied by underwater dancers in tanks while he sung She Bangs 71 In his only North American concert of 2001 She Bangs was one of the songs Martin performed during the annual Wango Tango in Los Angeles 72 In the same year it was sung by Martin at the 43rd Annual TV Week Logie Awards 73 The song was included on the set lists for Martin s 2011 Musica Alma Sexo World Tour 74 2013 Australian Tour 75 and the Enrique Iglesias and Ricky Martin Live in Concert tour 76 Martin also performed She Bangs along with his other hits during the 55th Vina del Mar International Song Festival on February 23 2014 77 He performed Livin la Vida Loca She Bangs and Adrenalina with the show s finalists and La Copa de la Vida with Cristina Scuccia on season two of The Voice of Italy in 2014 78 Also on May 13 2015 he performed Mr Put It Down Livin la Vida Loca She Bangs and The Cup of Life alongside Clark Beckham Nick Fradiani Quentin Alexander Qaasim Middleton and Rayvon Owen on fourteenth season s finale of American Idol 79 Cover versions and appearances in media Edit She Bangs has been covered by several contestants on various music talent shows Ronny B performed She Bangs on season three of America s Got Talent in 2008 His rendition was poorly received with judge David Hasselhoff remarking that Ronny B had zero talent and he was immediately eliminated afterwards 80 81 In 2020 Llama Drew Carey delivered a performance of She Bangs on season three of The Masked Singer 82 and in 2010 Wagnar performed the track along with a cover version of Love Shack by the B 52 s on series seven of The X Factor Wagner was ranked as one of the most iconic X Factor contestants of all time by Grazia 83 She Bangs was featured in the American computer animated jukebox musical comedy film Sing 2 2021 84 William Hung version Edit She Bangs Song by William Hungfrom the album InspirationReleased2004 2004 Recorded2004Length3 32LabelKoch EntertainmentSongwriter s Desmond Child Walter Afanasieff Robi Draco Rosa Glenn Monroig Julia Sierra Daniel LopezHong Kong born American motivational speaker and former singer William Hung gained notoriety when he auditioned for the third season of American Idol in 2004 Hung was strongly criticized for his singing and dancing judge Simon Cowell interrupted his audition and asked him You can t sing you can t dance so what do you want me to say 85 Despite the negative reception Hung gained a following after his performance and ultimately signed to Koch Entertainment 86 Hung released a cover of She Bangs on his debut studio album Inspiration 2004 with the cover being generally panned AllMusic editor Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote that Hung sang it as if the song meant something to him even though he didn t understand the words which gave the Berkeley civil engineering student innocence or to some of his harsher critics the appearance of being mildly retarded 87 Chris Carle of IGN said that it is the best track but that s like saying a tetanus shot is the best kind of injection you can get 88 Clem Bestow wrote for Stylus Magazine that Hung s performance of the song is like a tone deaf taxi driver and dancing like an epileptic octopus 89 The music video for Hung s version was directed by Jeff Richter and filmed in Los Angeles 90 On June 3 2018 Martin invited Hung as a surprise guest to his concert at the Monte Carlo Theater in Las Vegas and the two performed the original together 8 In an interview with Variety 20 years after the release of She Bangs Hung told the magazine that he s grateful to have Martin s song and explained that otherwise I wouldn t be where I am today I just enjoyed the song right from the beginning I thought it sounded cool and very upbeat It was unique compared to everything else I was hearing back in the early two thousands 91 On May 2 2022 coinciding with American Idol s 20th anniversary Hung returned to the show to reprise his epic performance of the song 92 Formats and track listings EditAustralian maxi single 93 She Bangs English Edit 4 02 She Bangs Obadam s English Radio Edit 3 59 Por
