Background

[edit]

"Obsesión" was originally recorded and released by the Latin group Aventura, hitting #1 in France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Belgium plus two weeks at the top of the Europe-wide chart and selling 1.5 million copies in the process.

3rd Wish discovered the track and together with Mintman and the US musician Baby Bash, re-recorded the track predominantly in English, which was musically performed and produced by Mintman. The song again reached the upper parts of European charts. It also reached #15 in the UK Singles Chart in December 2004.^[1]
