How to dance ai se eu te pego
How "Ai Se Eu Te Pego" went from soccer anthem to summer jam
The next Macarena?
The '90s seem like a simpler time: The economy was booming, Internet comments hadn't been invented yet, and Ice Cube was still primarily a rapper.
But it was also a strange time when a dance craze called "The Macarena" invaded America, taking over the Billboard chart and the nation's hips. Surely that could never happen again, right?
America generally avoids foreign pop songs with cheesy dance moves. It's one of the things that makes us great. George W. Bush might have gotten us into a war in Iraq, but he kept us away from Las Ketchup.
As the Euro Cup heats up, there's another international phenomenon that's making waves stateside. In Brazil, "Ai Se Eu Te Pego" was a moderate hit by singer Michel Teló in the summer of 2011 when Brazilian footballer Neymar was caught on camera performing the song's hip-thrusty signature choreography.
But Neymar's moves were just the beginning. On Oct. 22, soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo performed the "Ai Se Eu Te Pego" dance to celebrate his goal for Real Madrid against Malaga CF. Within a couple weeks, the Teló video skyrocketed from 33,000 to 33 million hits on YouTube.
After Ronaldo, players from England to Greece have been dancing to the song on the field, in the locker room and beyond, the song has over 364 million views and the single has hit No. 1 in 17 countries — including on the U.S. Latin Billboard chart. But can a song called "Ai Se Eu Te Pego" crack the mainstream?
It's not unheard of for Spanish-language songs to make it on the Billboard charts (think Shakira's "La Tortura" and "Gasolina" by Pitbull) but America generally avoids foreign pop songs with cheesy dance moves. It's one of the things that makes us great. George W. Bush might have gotten us into a war in Iraq, but he kept us away from Las Ketchup.
Despite this, Teló's hit has spent 10 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at No.
81. As the Euro Cup puts it even more on the radar, it could stick around. The thing about "Ai Se Eu Te Pego" is that it has a way of getting in your head and staying there.
Is America ready for another Macarena? Start practicing your hip thrusts now.

The pool is a major draw for the resort.
Beach lovers, campers, and Texans getting away from it all now have a chill new option to waste away. Camp Margaritaville RV Resort Crystal Beach is officially open, following an ongoing renovation and ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Formerly known as Bolivar Beach Club & RV Resort, the 150-acre beachfront location on the Bolivar Peninsula boasts a resort-style camping experience with unique amenities that make the RV resort a memorable vacation spot.
RV drivers/users can rest easy knowing that electric, water and sewer hookups, complimentary Wi-Fi, dog parks, a gym, and facilities for showering and doing laundry await at the site.
Fun includes a beachside concert venue, a Texas-sized pool with a swim-up bar and 50 private poolside cabanas, and large turf playing field. Renovations will continue into next year, promising the Fins Bar & Grill Restaurant, sand volleyball courts, pickleball courts, a bar called License to Chill, and more.
Another huge draw: The resort offers close access to 27 miles of beaches along the peninsula. (Ahh.)
Crystal Beach is the fourth location within the Camp Margaritaville brand, and joins the company's existing Margaritaville Lake Resort, Lake Conroe. The lake resort, which rebranded and opened in the summer of 2020, includes 335 suites, an 18-hole golf course, a three-acre waterpark with a lazy river and outdoor pools.

Songfacts®:
Brazilian songwriters Sharon Acioly and Antônio Dyggs penned this song in 2008 and it was first recorded by Os Meninos de Seu Zeh, before being covered by various regional Brazilian bands.
Realizing that it had the potential to become a national hit in Brazil, Dyggs offered the tune to Brazilian singer-songwriter, Michel Teló. The songwriter's confidence in his tune proved correct, as not only did Teló's version top the national charts in 2011, but also it went to #1 in many other countries, including France, Germany, Italy, The Netherlands and Spain.The song reached the Billboard Hot 100, making Michel Teló the first Brazilian solo act to have a song enter the US singles chart since Sérgio Mendes in the 1960s.
The track sparked a dance phenomenon, helped by various footballers celebrating scoring a goal with its dance moves. Most famously, Cristiano Ronaldo of Real Madrid danced to the choreography of the song with Marcelo Vieira after he scored the first goal against Málaga CF on October 22, 2011.
Teló also released an English language version titled, "Oh, If I Catch You!"
The single release in the UK is a remix by Syco featuring teenage American rapper Becky G.
