Background and Composition
editOn August 2, 2018 Thalía did a Facebook Live video to thank her fans for her previous video No Me Acuerdo reaching 200 million views on YouTube.[2] At the beginning of the video she says "Hello! Estan ahi mis vidas? Estan ahi? Me oyen? Me escuchan?" and then begins to sing and dance "Me escuchan? Me oyen? Me escuchan, me oyen, me sienten? Yo estoy felíz felíz felíz. Felíz de que los tengo! De que los tengo, tengo, tengo!". At the end of the video she said "Gracias, gracias. Tiki tiki tin, tiki tiki tin tin tin, taka taka tan. Los amo! Bye, bye, bye,bye, bye, bye, bye. Como le apago?".[3] The way she said all those things went viral for being very funny to a lot of people that they started recording themselves saying the same things in the same way, thus starting a new meme called the Thalía Challenge.[4] As more people posted their Thalía Challenge videos online, even several celebrities, the video got more attention that a YouTuber named Chuy Nuñez did an autone remix of the video and uploaded it to his Facebook and YouTube channel on August 22, 2018.[5] On August 31, 2018 Thalía released a studio recorded version of the song on all digital platforms.[6]
