Are you Macarena?

[arianayaris]

I can't believe no one thought to pick a song before. Congratulations OSorgini! I am in fact The Macarena



The "Macarena" instantly became one of the most famous dance songs in the world when the single was first released in the US on August 15, 1995 by Los del Rio. Los del Río (meaning "Those from the River") is a Spanish music duo composed of musicians Antonio Romero Monge and Rafael Ruíz. As a duo, Romero and Ruiz were a consistent act since the early 1960’s but, in the summer of 1996, they enjoyed the success of their multi-platinum smash summer hit, Macarena, which sold over four million copies in the United States and spent a record 14 weeks at #1. The "Macarena" became the longest running #1 and best selling debut single of all time in American music history. It was ranked the "#1 Greatest One-Hit Wonder of all Time" by VH1 in 2002. The song ranks at #5 on Billboard's All Time Top 100 and ranks at #1 on Billboard's All Time Latin Songs.

The Spanish duo was inspired to record this on a trip to Venezuela when they spotted a beautiful flamenco dancer. The song is about a woman named Macarena. She is the girlfriend of a the Spanish Army soldier named Victorino who cheats on him with two of his male friends when he is sworn in. She dreams of shopping at El Corte Inglés (the major Spanish department store chain), moving to New York City and getting a new boyfriend.

The song was recorded in 1992, and released in 1993 as a rumba. This was the first of six versions of the song that can be associated to Los Del Rio. During its heyday, the song was played frequently at athletic games, rallies, conventions, etc. In 1996, many believe a world record for group dancing was set, when a crowd of 50,000 people danced the Macarena in Yankee Stadium in NYC. The song also broke records by remaining in the Hot 100 chart for 62 weeks. In 1997, the song had sold 11 million copies.

Note: I said the song was in Spanish because this is how it was recorded originally and how I know it even though I was aware of the Bayside Boys remix that's mostly in English.
