It was released on March 23, 1999, from Martin 's self - titled debut English - language album ( he had previously released several albums in Spanish ). The song was composed by Desmond Child and Draco Rosa and topped the charts during 1999. La vida loca is Spanish for `` the crazy life. '' `` Livin ' la Vida Loca '' is generally seen as the song that began the Latin pop explosion of 1999 and made the transition of other Spanish - speaking artists ( first Enrique Iglesias and Marc Anthony and then later Shakira, Thalía, and Paulina Rubio ) into the English - speaking market easier. Before this time, most non-Latino Americans had never heard of Martin until what CNN reported was a show - stopping performance of `` La Copa de la Vida '' at the 41st Grammy Awards show, which became a catalyst in bringing Latin pop to the forefront of the U.S. music scene. `` Livin ' la Vida Loca '' sold over 8 million copies, making it one of the best selling singles of all time. The song received various Grammy Awards nominations and Ricky Martin obtain enormous success inside the United States and worldwide. In 2007, the song was ranked at number 28 on the list of 100 Greatest Songs of the 90 's by VH1. It is Martin 's signature song and still maintains a cult following. Martin performed the song on second series of The Voice Australia with fellow judges Delta Goodrem, Joel Madden and Seal.

This song was the first U.S. number one single to be recorded without using then - conventional recording studio equipment ; instead the track was created at Desmond Child 's Gentlemen 's Club Studio, which utilizes a 64 - track Pro Tools system. The recording is also noted for its exceptional use of dynamic range compression to increase the track 's perceived loudness. Music video The video for `` Livin ' la Vida Loca '', directed by Wayne Isham and starring Croatian model Nina Morić, was shot in Los Angeles in 1999. It aired later the same month, and received six nominations at the 1999 MTV Video Music Awards including Video of the Year, Best Male Video, Best Choreography in a Video and Viewer 's Choice. It won two primary awards for Best Pop Video, and Best Dance Video, and was voted three additional awards in the international Viewers Choice categories. It also won Ritmo Latino Music Award for Music Video of the Year. The video features Ricky Martin performing in a pub with his band and hanging out with a lady ( Nina Morić ) at different locations. One scene shows several women taking their shirts off and perform choreographed dance moves while it rains ; this scene coincides with the line in the pre-chorus `` She 'll make you take your clothes off and go dancing in the rain ''. Various snippets of the video seem to merge into each other, over the duration of the song. Towards the end of the video, Martin gets distracted by his lady partner while driving, causing another car to veer and hit a fire hydrant, releasing a fountain of water ; this was also the first scene of the video.
