《Macarena》（瑪卡雷娜）

這是一首連續創下13周美國公告牌排行榜首記錄的歌，真的很不可思議啊。不過這首歌節奏明快，聽起來讓人心情舒暢。我想這也許是人們喜歡這首歌的一個很重要的原因吧。

西班牙二重唱河邊人二重唱（Los Del Rio）的專輯《馬卡麗娜》（Macarena）是世界上最成功的拉丁音樂（Latin）唱片，全球銷量超過了1千萬張。1996年，它打進了美國榜14個星期，並在百強專輯名單中保持了整整60個星期。“Los Del Rio”這個西班牙單詞是河邊之人的意思，組合由拉斐爾瑞茲（Raphael Ruiz）和安東尼奧羅莫若（Antonio Romero）組成，他倆都來自西班牙的塞維爾。回溯上個世紀60年代，當《馬卡麗娜》（Macarena）在美國榜上取得第一時，二重唱組合已經錄製了300多首歌。儘管他們以前的作品也是流行式弗萊明戈風格的，但《馬卡麗娜》（Macarena）真正俘虜了歐美樂迷的心。《馬卡麗娜》（Macarena）掀起的舞曲熱更席捲美國，單曲在英國也上到了亞軍位置，成為婚禮、俱樂部和舞會必不可少的曲目。
