History

Background

The song "Chihuahua" is based on Latin pop hit single of the same name by Louis Oliveira and His Bandodalua Boys.

Hit success and releases

The song became the sixth best-selling single of the 21st century in France, with 1.020.000 units sold.[1]

"Chihuahua" also features on DJ BoBo's compilations Chihuahua (2002) and Greatest Hits (2006), and on the live albums Live in Concert (2003) and Vampires Are Alive – The Show (2008).

Videoclip and usage in the media

There were two music videos, the first one having been produced as an animated feature. The song, which was accompanied with a choreographed dance, was used for a French TV advert for Coca-Cola.

Cover versions

In the same year, the song was covered by The Booming People, and achieved a moderate success (#60 in France, No. 3 in Belgium (Flanders) and No. 2 in Belgium (Wallonia).[2] Also in 2003, Brazilian singer Eliana covered this song as "Meu Cachorrinho (Chihuahua)" and released as a single, with new lyrics written in Portuguese.

In December 2004, "Chihuahua" was covered by Cantopop singer Joey Yung. In 2005, Greek band Candy Girls recorded a Greek version of the song. In 2008, the Belgian child trio Dalton Sisters covered the song in Dutch for the Dutch version of Beverly Hills Chihuahua.

In 2004, The main characters of the children's anime Doraemon covered this song with the same lyrics as the original, and put it on the disc with the same name. The difference in the beginning is Doraemon saying "Shizuka, Giant, Nobita, Suneo, Let's dance!"[citation needed]
