"Mujeres" is a 1992 song by Guatemalan singer-songwriter Ricardo Arjona. It was released in 1992, and it became Arjona's first major international hit, becoming his first top 10 on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart in 1993, where it peaked at number 6.[1] It is also recognized as one of Arjona's signature songs. The lyrics of the song begin with a reference about God creating Eve as a companion for Adam; "No sé quién las inventó / no sé quién nos hizo ese favor / tuvo que ser Dios / que vio al hombre tan solo y sin dudarlo pensó en dos".[2]
