"Tú Serás la Historia de Mi Vida" is a song by Colombian singer-songwriter Shakira from her second studio album Peligro (1993). The song was released as the fourth and final single off the album in July 1993. It is a latin pop song written by Desmond Child and produced by Eduardo Paz. Despite not being commercially successful, the song has resonated deeply with Shakira's fans.[1] [2]

Background

Following the release of her commercially unsuccessful debut album Magia in 1991, Shakira released her second album Peligro in 1993. However, she was dissatisfied with the final product and refused to promote it. As a result, the album sold poorly, less than 1000 copies.[3] [4]

"Tú Serás la Historia de Mi Vida" is written by American songwriter and producer Desmond Child.[5] [6] The song is not for sale or officially on streaming anywhere outside of old physical copies of Peligro due to Shakira blocking the re-release of her first two albums citing their "immaturity".[7]

Release and promotion

Upon its release as a single, the song became the only single off the album to receive radio airplay. The song was the only one off the album to have an official music video released for.

Shakira promoted the song performing it live at the Show de las Estrellas Colombia in 1993, where she performed multiple songs off the album, including "Brujería", "Eres", and "Controlas Mi Destino",[8] and at La Guajira in 1994,[9] where she also performed her first single "Magia".[10] Shakira also performed the song on some Colombian dates of her Tour Pies Descalzos (1995-1997).[11]
