Review

This is a fast-paced salsa song. This great song talks about obstacles and how hard life is to achieve, but from a very positive point of view.

It´s originally a cover and you can read more about the history behind that Here

The 53-year-old singer began his artistic career in 1985. Marc Anthony has 10 million 069 thousand 913 monthly listeners on Spotify and 'Vivir mi Vida´ is included in his album '3.0' released in 2013. It was produced by Sergio George. It is the 11th album by Salsero. His first single is the song mentioned above, while the last is the same but in its pop version.

In the official video clip, Marc gives a nice introduction to the song as he moves through NYC and then arrives in the Bronx where many fans are waiting for him. He talks to them and signs some autographs. And then we see them singing this song on a little stage surrounded by people enjoying the music and dancing to it.

There´s an English version where you can compare both Spanish and English introductions.

Despite having a lot of figurative speech, it´s not a difficult song to learn because it repeats itself several times. There are a few keywords to learn and by the end of the song, for sure, it can be printed in your mind.

His intonation is quite neutral even though he uses a few phrases originally used by ordinary people from Central America. He does that frequently, given that the market for his music is pointed to all of the continent. So I think his music can be very useful to keep learning Spanish.
