"Livin' La Vida Loca" by Ricky Martin - 1999


Listen Later

This week Lindsey Deacon returns to the studio to talk about the quirky nature of leather pants, and the number one hit from 1999, "Livin' La Vida Loca" by Ricky Martin. Crafted by a team of legendary music producers for a former member of the long running Puerto Rican boy-band franchise Menudo, this song stormed American pop culture and opened the door for a wave of latin flavored pop music by international artists. Why is the woman in the video so crazy? What were the subtle clues that Ricky Martin was actually gay the whole time? Why are there so many heavy metal cover versions of this song? All these questions and more will be answered on this week's episode of Single File.
