He was also in a Latin Teen Idol group called Menudo when he was between the ages of 9-16 or 17 years old. Then, he went into acting afterwards. Ricky Martin was 30 years old when he recorded this song and video.
He played a character named Miguel... I don't think he was ever a doctor. He was an aspiring singer. Left the show to pursue his music career (both him and his character).
😁 They closed down NYC when they performed at Madison Square Garden! 🥰 Of course, I was 1 of the JHS girls screaming outside the Hotel! 😉 Had that Spanish Harlem hookup for tickets yo! 🤩
He has been a mega Latin heartthrob for a couple decades!! This is probably his biggest hit or one of them, but he's got many other great songs. He's super talented.
Love that you loved this song! As others have said, he's been a Latin hearthtrob for years. I really love "La Bomba" for dancing! For a ballad, "Tu Recuerdo" is just amazing.
I definitely had a Ricky Martin phase. I'd recommend Shake Your Bon Bon and Copa de la Vida which he wrote and sang for the 1998 World Cup. There is an all English version of that one but the version that has both Spanish and English is better in my opinion.
It chokes me up a bit that out of 76 comments so far only one person mentioned Ricky’s sexual orientation and it wasn’t a negative comment but a comment about the irony of the song and his being gay. The reason i am even commenting about the subject is that as a gay guy its refreshing to not have to see the hateful comments I’ve come to expect. Adogg i know I don’t need to tell you this but you’ve got some great people following you. i want to thank every person who commented on this video with comments about Ricky’s music and not who he sleeps with. Be well.
I wonder if it has to do with his fan base? It's got to be 99.99% female and that kind of eye candy can do what they want! I have also heard that he is a truly nice person and it's hard to hate that.
I disagree with the statement that he's homosexual. Because he's said that he likes both men and women. And he has felt legitimate attraction to women. He even said he'd be open to being with women if he felt the desire. To me, that sounds like a bisexual.
@@billbertboyce324 soo ok then you disagree with the man himself then? On March 29, 2010, Martin publicly came out as gay in a post on his official website, stating: "I am proud to say that I am a fortunate homosexual man.”
@@michaelsander6039 he says that, but he also says this: _I know that _*_I like both men and women,_*_ I'm against sexual labels, we are simply human beings with emotional and sexual needs_ - Ricky Martin (2016, Fama! Magazine interview) If you have any attraction to both men and women, you're not homosexual/gay according to the dictionary and science. You're bisexual. Homosexual means being attracted to only the same sex. Bisexual means being attracted to both men and women.
@@billbertboyce324 not that it matters but you are using old quotes. Ricky is gay. He’s proud to be gay as i and many like me are. My initial comment made the only point I was trying to make which was that I thought it was cool that his sexuality wasn’t important to the commenters and what was important was his art.
This was his biggest hit he was 27 l think used to love this song definitely one that gets you moving even now see you had to move as well thank you 😷✌👍
Love Ricky Martin!!!! His song Maria is the bomb. It's in Spanish but the beat is sick. The video is Maria (Spanglish) (Remastered).It has 176 million views😁🎶🎵🎧💙
You can't stop to moving with this song, it appeared in the movie Shrek 2. I recommend you react to "Smooth" by Santana ft. Rob Thomas, the rhythm is cool!
Ricky Martin is Puerto Rican. He is beloved by the Puerto Rican people. This is one of his first crossover hits. He started singing in Spanish and, then he sang in both Spanish and English. He just droppped a song in Spanish.
Yo this was literally my first album (we’re both from Puerto Rico and went to the same school- at different times). He’s an integral part of my music journey fo sho! Check out La Bomba! 🙏🏼❤️💯😁
Ricky Martin came into the music world in a Latin boy band group called Menudo a Latin version of New Kids On The Block in the 80s he was very popular with veteran Singers like Gloria Estevan Jennifer Lopez Enrique Iglesias and even though he was an actor that made him a star on the soap opera show General Hospital he was huge as a singer! Glad you love this song and yes this song makes you dance my wife hates to dance but when she hears this song she cant help but shake her hips which I love!!
Released March 1999, and in 1994 he was 13yrs old on Ophra, so he would be 18-19 when released on the radio, the video came some time later. So early 20's like you said.
Glad you discovered Ricky M. Great artists. He singled handedly put Latino music back on map after Grammy performance. He was performing at the Grammys and literally stole the show. Next day,next month,next year it was al about Ricky M. Even fashion changed thanks to this guy. Honestly hard to measure how big he was . Checked the Grammy performance and also Maria,Maria.
Puerto Rico in the house!!! Ricky Martin is a world icon! This song is an anthem! Loved your reaction. React to Ricky Martin, "Cancion Bonita"... this one is pretty new. YOU WILL MOVE! Good vibes always from NYC! The girl is who's making him live a crazy life! Also, react to Ricky Martin and Christina Aguilera, "Nobody wants to be lonely"... fire!!!!! Good vibes always, from NYC!
One thing I like about this one you did. You let the song play out and not pause and talk every 5 or 10 seconds like others. Once they do that, I am done, on to the next. You give it some play to listen. Kudos.
I had a Ricky Martin phase 😂it was in 1999 and a few years after that . Oh ,such fun !😍at parties and at salsotecs. 👏💕 Along with some other great artists like JLO,Marc Anthony ,Britney Spears ,Enrique Iglesias and so on . Here are some suggestions :” La Bomba ” and ” Copa de la vida ”,” with Ricky Martin . I’m sure there are a few I don’t remember right now. Have the cd:s though 😂other great songs by other artists from that era : ”Salome” ,”Bailamos” with Enrique iglesias , ” Suavemente ” Elvis crespo. ( merengue).” Cuba que lindos son ” Celia Cruz . A whole lot of salsa was popular at that time as I recall.

I remember watching the 2000 Grammy’s. He wasn’t huge yet but he performed this song and blew everyone away. I remember Rosie O’Donnell was hosting that year. She came out on stage after he was done and was like “What was that!” She was shell shocked like the rest of us. His career basically exploded after that.
Haha I didn't see a reaction to Ricky Martin comin! Absolutely amazing. Since we are on the latino vibe, PLEASE do yourself a favor and listen to Rosalìa! I strongly recommend her song "A Palè", you are gonna love it.
Saw this while scrolling and it reminded me of “Thong Song” by Cisco. Lmaooooo. Not the same but the same era. You GOTTA do it if you haven’t. It was the jam.
Ricky is one sexy guy. I think he's biggest in the Latin music category, but he definitely had his share of fame. Definite cross-over Great reaction..... One suggestion, if you don't mind.... I personally wish you'd rewind 5 seconds or so when you pause. Sometimes you miss something, that some might think important. I dunno, it's a good habit to get into, I think
Such fun with you as you react to music. This one was fab,! And put you at the top of my list of favorite folks reacting to songs on TH-cam. You go RealAdogg! Wishing I was 50 years younger…..
I'm 68 and this still makes me get up and dance.
Years ago ricky was in a soap opera called general hospital. He played a doctor with long beautiful hair. Great song, thanks for your reactions. 👍👍😎
Yes yes... General Hospital is where i first heard of him at least 20 maybe 30 years ago.
He was also in a Latin Teen Idol group called Menudo when he was between the ages of 9-16 or 17 years old. Then, he went into acting afterwards. Ricky Martin was 30 years old when he recorded this song and video.
He played a character named Miguel... I don't think he was ever a doctor. He was an aspiring singer. Left the show to pursue his music career (both him and his character).
Little Ricky was in the boy band Menudo formed in 1977.
😁 They closed down NYC when they performed at Madison Square Garden! 🥰 Of course, I was 1 of the JHS girls screaming outside the Hotel! 😉 Had that Spanish Harlem hookup for tickets yo! 🤩
I had no idea he was that old.
He has been a mega Latin heartthrob for a couple decades!! This is probably his biggest hit or one of them, but he's got many other great songs. He's super talented.
And the funniest thing about it is he’s gay😂
Ricky Martin is a judge on The Voice Australia - nice dude!
He was born in 1971 (he'll be 50 on Christmas eve). This came out in March 1999. He was 27 turning 28 that year.
Love that you loved this song! As others have said, he's been a Latin hearthtrob for years. I really love "La Bomba" for dancing! For a ballad, "Tu Recuerdo" is just amazing.
You may have heard this in one of the Shrek movies. I believe Donkey sang it.
Donkey and Puss in Boots sang this song at the end of Shrek 2
Whats crazy is my mom used to live down the street from him when they were little kids they used to hang out as kids lol
They did this in Shrek the Second. " Puss and Donkey y'all ". Love it!💙💙👍👍
I definitely had a Ricky Martin phase. I'd recommend Shake Your Bon Bon and Copa de la Vida which he wrote and sang for the 1998 World Cup. There is an all English version of that one but the version that has both Spanish and English is better in my opinion.
Also Adrenalina. 🤤

Ricky is an actor and singer. He was on the soap opera General Hospital back in the day before becoming a huge musical artist/performer.
You can't stop to moving with this song, it appeared in the movie Shrek 2. I recommend you react to "Smooth" by Santana ft. Rob Thomas, the rhythm is cool!

LOVE THIS SONG! I have a few of his albums.
Would love to see you react to She bangs and Shake your bon bon. Very sexy songs! Woo! Ricky's music is just so much fun to hear and watch. 😎💜
Ricky Martin is Puerto Rican. He is beloved by the Puerto Rican people. This is one of his first crossover hits. He started singing in Spanish and, then he sang in both Spanish and English. He just droppped a song in Spanish.
Ricky is the king of Latin pop. Mega star in Latin America
Someone said you are dancing in your chair so just move it to your feet! Great reaction, thanks! Appreciate your doing this one and glad you liked it.

I'm mid 50s and always lovec this song ! He was gorgeous. Macarena was also a great song back then by a different band.
All I Ever Had is a song of his that went under the radar. It is Excellent!! You would enjoy it!! Keep up the great reactions! 👍
Two reactions:
“Hey Jude” by The Beatles
“Hey Jude” by Wilson Pickett (a killer cover version)
Wilson Pickett is amazing!
Had a BLAST back then when this played! HAD to get up & dance! 🥰🎶
Yep, they used this song in the final scene of Shrek. It was Eddie Murphy (Donkey) and Antonio Banderas (Puss in Boots) singing it there!
Ricky is Great, GREAT for dancing!
The irony about Ricky and this song - is that he's out gay. He's great though!
One thing I like about this one you did. You let the song play out and not pause and talk every 5 or 10 seconds like others. Once they do that, I am done, on to the next. You give it some play to listen. Kudos.
It means living my crazy life. 8-20-2021
