Background
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.
To garner a greater airplay in Mexican folk music radio stations, the melody was remixed into Duranguense with the group Los Horóscopos de Durango. Trevi traveled to Miami to meet with the vocalists of the group, Marisol and Vicky Terrazas, with whom the remix was recorded during the night of April 17, 2008. The remix was a commercial success both in radio play, and digital versions.

Famous quotes containing the word background:
“They were more than hostile. In the first place, I was a south Georgian and I was looked upon as a fiscal conservative, and the Atlanta newspapers quite erroneously, because they didn’t know anything about me or my background here in Plains, decided that I was also a racial conservative.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“Silence is the universal refuge, the sequel to all dull discourses and all foolish acts, a balm to our every chagrin, as welcome after satiety as after disappointment; that background which the painter may not daub, be he master or bungler, and which, however awkward a figure we may have made in the foreground, remains ever our inviolable asylum, where no indignity can assail, no personality can disturb us.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“In the true sense one’s native land, with its background of tradition, early impressions, reminiscences and other things dear to one, is not enough to make sensitive human beings feel at home.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
