Cinco Minutos (English: Five Minutes) is a pop song written by singer-songwriters Erika Ender and Amerika Jiménez, and interpreted by the Mexican singer Gloria Trevi. It was produced by Armando Ávila, and is the second single from the artist's seventh studio album Una Rosa Blu (2007).
Cinco Minutos was released in March 2008 in Mexico and the United States. It stayed in the popularity lists and top spots of Billboard Magazine and Monitor Latino for 45 consecutive weeks. For this song, co-writer Erika Ender received in 2009 and 2010 the SESAC award in the category Song of the Year. Gloria Trevi received the 2009 Billboard award for Cinco Minutos in the female category Tema Pop Airplay del Año, and a new nomination in the female category of 2010, Artista Regional Mexicano Airplay del Año, for the duranguense remix with Los Horóscopos de Durango.
After the moderate success of her previous single, Psicofonía, in the charts, Inmaculada was announced as the second single of the album, in support of a campaign against the Female homicides in Ciudad Juárez. Despite what was said through the talk show La Oreja in November 2007, this decision was modified a few months later and announced on her website, naming Cinco Minutos and El Favor de la Soledad as the following singles: the first in Mexico and the latter in the United States.
Cinco Minutos received its official debut into mainstream Mexican radio in March 2008, accompanied by the music video, filmed in Tenerife, Spain, and as part of the setlist for her Una Rosa Blu concert tour. A small controversy did arise over a possible plagiarism of the name of Madonna's single, 4 Minutes.
