《Macarena》(玛卡雷娜)是西班牙二重唱河边人二重唱(Los Del Rio)的专辑,是世界上最成功的拉丁音乐(Latin)唱片,全球销量超过了1千万张。1996年,它打进了美国榜14个星期,并在百强专辑名单中保持了整整60个星期。
这是一首连续创下13周美国公告牌排行榜首记录的歌,真的很不可思议。不过这首歌节奏明快,听起来让人心情舒畅。我想这也许是人们喜欢这首歌的一个很重要的原因吧。
“Los Del Rio”这个西班牙单词是河边之人的意思,组合由拉斐尔瑞兹(Raphael Ruiz)和安东尼奥罗莫若(Antonio Romero)组成,他俩都来自西班牙的塞维尔。回溯上个世纪60年代,当《马卡丽娜》(Macarena)在美国榜上取得第一时,二重唱组合已经录制了300多首歌。尽管他们以前的作品也是流行式弗莱明戈风格的,但《马卡丽娜》(Macarena)真正俘虏了欧美乐迷的心。《马卡丽娜》(Macarena)掀起的舞曲热更席卷美国,单曲在英国也上到了亚军位置,成为婚礼、俱乐部和舞会必不可少的曲目。
