The band, which collaborated with some music stars such as Debbie Harry, Mick Jones, Celia Cruz, Rubén Blades and Fishbone, received the MTV Latino Video Music Award in 1994 for the single "Matador", in what probably was the peak of popularity of the band. On September 29 of that year they produced an MTV Unplugged concert. The Cadillacs also won the 1998 Grammy Award for Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album, and were nominated in the 2000 Latin Grammy Awards for Best Band and Best Music Video ("La Vida"), which received the now-defunct International Viewer's Choice Award (Southern Region) at the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards.

ibas a llegar al sol
no es la misma ciudad
todo está tranquilo, hoy.
Pero va a ser como ayer, vas a ser
oh, tan grande como un Dios
yo voy a verte.
Las luces se apagan otra vez
algo te recuerda
quisiera verte como ayer
tengo que salir al sol.
Pero va a ser como ayer, vas a ser
oh, tan grande como un Dios
yo voy a verte.
Pero va a ser como ayer, vas a ser
oh, tan grande como un Dios
yo voy a verte.
