The Macarena lives on in the hearts and minds (and wedding dancefloors) of so many people around the world, but it’s hard to overstate the popularity this song and dance enjoyed in the 1990s. It even reached the 1996 Democratic convention! Well, almost. Al Gore took to the stage and said: ‘And if I could have your silence, I would like to demonstrate for you the Al Gore version of the Macarena.’ The man did no such thing, he simply stood still. Legend.
