If you were a kid growing up in the 90s, chances are you loved the Macarena song and the dance that went along with it. From 1996 to 1997, the Macarena, despite being sung in Spanish, was #1 on the Billboard Hot Singles charts. It was so catchy and popular, Elementary schools would play the song over the intercom as a “fun” thing for their students. Somewhere along the way people came to their senses and realized the song was incredibly obnoxious and the dance was ridiculous. If they knew what the lyrics were about, it’s doubtful they’d play it so openly for kids in school.
