Livin' la Vida Loca

Momentum

This song has not appeared on a Rotation chart, so it has no score and no receipts. The rank history below is the ledger; a score is only published once the momentum run puts it on a chart.

Why it's here

The song was written by Draco Rosa and Desmond Child and produced by Child, becoming the first number-one song made entirely in Pro Tools. [1] It topped the Billboard Hot 100 for five consecutive weeks, making Martin the first solo male artist in over a year to reach number one and the first for his label, Columbia. [2] It was nominated for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Male Pop Vocal Performance, and Best Instrumental Arrangement Accompanying Vocalist(s) at the 42nd Annual Grammy Awards, and in 2022 was selected by the Library of Congress for induction into the National Recording Registry. [3]

In culture

Every place this record has lived. A solid chip states a fact and carries the citation that earns it; a dashed one is a connection somebody drew, and carries their name instead.
