"Sound Loaded" is the sixth album by the Puerto Rican singer Ricky Martin. Released by Sony on December 26, 2000 (see 2000 in music), it has been credited for world wide sales of over 7,000,000 copies. This album is Ricky’s fourth marketed in the United States, and is his second album in English. It includes the single "She Bangs" a song that came to prominence again in 2004 after William Hung performed it during his failed "American Idol" audition, and "Nobody Wants to Be Lonely" which was later turned into a duet with Christina Aguilera, though she is not featured on the version included here. The album is considered to have been unsuccessful in comparison with Martin's previous effort, 1999's self-titled "Ricky Martin".
