"La Vida Es Un Carnaval" (Spanish pronunciation:[laˈβiðaesuŋkaɾnaˈβal]; English: "Life Is a Carnival") is a song performed by Cuban recording artist Celia Cruz. The song was written by Victor Daniel, produced by Isidro Infante, arranged by Isidro Infante and released as the lead single from Cruz's studio album Mi Vida Es Cantar (1998). The song won the award for Tropical Song of the Year at the 2003 Lo Nuestro Awards.[1]
It has become one of Cruz's signature songs, leading to the song being covered by several artists, including salsa singers Victor Manuelle and La India among others.
This song was featured in the 2000 Mexican film, Amores perros, and also in the 2002 film Antwone Fisher. The title of Samuele Sbrighi's 2006 Italian film of the same name, set in Cuba, is also inspired by the song.
