"She Bangs" is a song performed by Ricky Martin, from his 2000 album Sound Loaded. An up-tempo, salsa-influenced song with double entendres about the singer's infatuation with a woman, Martin's recording earned him continued crossover success around the world.

The song was co-written by Desmond Child, who co-wrote Martin's number one hit "Livin' la Vida Loca" as well as several hits for Bon Jovi and other rock artists in the 1980s and '90s. Another co-writer was Martin's former Menudo bandmate Draco Rosa. The song was produced by Rosa and co-writer Walter Afanasieff; Afanasieff had won the previous year's Grammy Award for Song of the Year for producing Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On".

Sound Loaded was the follow-up to Martin's 1999 crossover breakthrough album Ricky Martin and "She Bangs" was released to radio in advance of the album as its first single. By 2000, the main Billboard Hot 100 and Hot Latin Songs charts had splintered into a myriad of sub-charts and the song became a hit on several of these, debuting on the Hot 100 and other charts beginning the week of October 7, 2000, and reaching its various chart peaks throughout November, December and January.

Music videos

The music video was shot in mid-August, directed by Wayne Isham was the subject of a season 3 episode of the MTV series Making the Video, a behind-the-scenes documentary style show that features the on-set filming and in-studio editing of popular artists' clips. It aired in September 2000 and became an MTV hit, receiving heavy rotation on the channel. Dancer Channing Tatum is also featured. A Spanish version of the music video was also released.

Chart performance

The song reached number twelve on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, while a Spanish-language version reached number one on the Hot Latin Songs for one week. The song hit number one on the Tropical Songs chart for five weeks. The song also hit number two on the Latin Pop Songs chart, and number eight on the Hot 100 Airplay and Pop Songs charts. "She Bangs" went to number twenty-four on the Adult Pop Songs and number thirty on the Rhythmic Top 40. In December, remixes debuted on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart, ultimately peaking at number twenty-seven in January 2001. Although released long before the digital era, it has sold 152,000 digital copies in the US.[1] The song also peaked at number two in Canada.

In the United Kingdom, "She Bangs" became Martin's second most popular song, peaking at number three. In Australia, the song debuted at number three and remained in the top ten for six more weeks. The song also hit the top five in Spain, New Zealand, Finland and Norway, going to the number one spot in Sweden and Italy. The single was certified Gold in Sweden and Silver in the UK.
