"Te Busqué" is a song recorded by Canadian singer Nelly Furtado for her third studio album Loose (2006). It features guest vocals from Juanes, who co-wrote the song with Furtado and its sole producer Lester Mendez. The song was released as the fifth European single from Loose on July 20, 2007, by Geffen Records and Mosley Music Group.

Writing and production

Furtado originally wrote the song in mid-2005 to a beat that Lester Mendez had created, with the verses in English and the choruses in Spanish. Furtado disliked the chorus and discussed it with Juanes, who had collaborated with Furtado on his single "Fotografía" (2003) and who had played at the Universal Amphitheatre in Los Angeles, where Furtado and Mendez were working.[1] Juanes agreed to co-write a duet with Furtado for the album, and he flew from Mexico to Toronto, Ontario, where they wrote the song in two days. Juanes played electric and acoustic guitar on the track.[2]

The song is a smooth Latin pop ballad,[3] which according to Talia Kraines from BBC Music, "it conjures up imaginations of romantic sunsets."[4] Chuck Taylor from Billboard noted that the song "tap[s] into Furtado's portuguese roots.[5]

Release and commercial performance

Due to the limited success of Furtado's hip hop and R&B-influenced 2006 singles "Promiscuous" and "Maneater" in Spain, "Te Busqué" began receiving airplay in the country, despite not being officially serviced to radio.[6] The heavy rotation prompted the song to reach the summit on the Los 40 Principales chart in Spain.[7] Furthermore, an accompanying music video for "Te Busqué" was scheduled to be filmed in December 2006,[6] which ultimately failed to come to fruition.

In select European countries, "Te Busqué" was released as the fifth single from Loose on July 20, 2007, reaching the top 20 in Germany, the Netherlands and Russia.[8][9] In the US, "Te Busqué" was not released as a single but received enough airplay on Latin radio stations to reach number 24 on the Billboard Latin Pop Airplay chart.[10]
