The track was written by Cheín García-Alonso, Lester Mendez and Enrique Iglesias. It became his 16th number-one single in the Billboard Hot Latin Tracks. At the time, Enrique would get past Luis Miguel who had 15 number-ones at the time. However, Miguel would tie Iglesias in November 2003 with his 16th (and final) number-one hit, "Te Necesito". "Para Qué La Vida" is the only Spanish-language song that has been played over 1,000,000 times in the United States.
The track debuted on the United States Billboard Hot Latin Tracks chart at number 39 on March 29, 2003,[1] and rose to number 1 nine weeks later,[2] spending one week at the summit. The single spent eighteen weeks in the chart.
