“Macarena (Bayside Boys Mix)” – Los del Río (English/Spanish – August 3, 1996, For Fourteen Weeks)
Macarena, mixed by the Bayside Boys, topped the Billboard Hot 100 for a good 14 weeks. The original version of the song also made it to the Billboard Hot 100, but its stay was short-lived compared to the mixed version.

The Bayside Boys swapped the Spanish verses with English ones to reach a broader set of audience. Los Del Rio, the duo behind the original song, wrote the song after being inspired by Diana Patricia Cubillán Herrera, the flamenco dancer from Venezuela. However, it isn’t likely that she was performing the same dance at the time, for which the song is now famous.
