"Cambia la Piel" (English: "Shed your skin") is a song by Puerto Rican singer Ricky Martin released as the only promotional single from his second English-language album, Sound Loaded (2000) in Spain and Latin America on October 15, 2001.
"Cambia la Piel" is a Spanish-language song written by Pau Donés Cirera, leader of the Spanish rock group Jarabe de Palo.[1] It was produced by Martin's collaborator, K. C. Porter.[1] Thanks to "Cambia la Piel" (among few other tracks), Porter won the Latin Grammy Award for Producer of the Year at the Latin Grammy Awards of 2001.[2] "Cambia la Piel" was released as the fourth (promotional only) single from Sound Loaded in Spain and Latin America on October 15, 2001.[3]
Critical reception
Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine wrote that adding a Spanish-language original song "Cambia la Piel" to Sound Loaded was a good idea.[4] He noted that Martin is better off singing in his native tongue, where his vocals seem more natural and less contrived.[4] Jose F. Promis from AllMusic called it a sizzling track.[5]
