Review
"Macarena" is a dance song by Spanish pop duo Los del Río, about a woman of the same name. The song uses a type of clave rhythm. Originally appearing on the 1993 album A mí me gusta, a subsequent remix by Miami-based producers The Bayside Boys became an international hit and inspired a dance craze in the latter half of 1996 and part of 1997. This version topped both the Billboard Hot 100 and the Cash Box Top 100 in the US. The song got the group ranked the "No. 1 Greatest One-Hit Wonder of All Time" by VH1 in 2002. In 2012, it was ranked No. 7 on Billboard's All Time Top 100. It also ranked at No. 1 on Billboard's All Time Latin Songs.
They wrote the song in the key of A♭ major, moves at a tempo of 103 beats per minute, and follows the repeated chord progression A♭–G♭ throughout.
As a result of their lounge act, Los del Río came to tour South America in 1992. While visiting Venezuela, they went to a private party held by the Venezuelan businessman Gustavo Cisneros. During the celebration, a local flamenco teacher, Diana Patricia Cubillán Herrera, danced for the guests, and Los del Río was pleasantly surprised by Cubillán's dance skills. Spontaneously, Antonio Romero Monge, said "¡Diana, dale a tu cuerpo alegría y cosas buenas!'" ("Give your body some joy, Diana"). When Monge wrote the song, he changed the name to Macarena, in honor of Antonio's daughter Esperanza Macarena.
Enjoy the master piece of Spanish Music, practice, improve your vocabulary and give your body some joy with LA MACARENA
