'Around the World' is actually a cover of 'Pesenka' by Ruki Vverkh (meaning 'A Song' by Hands Up).
As is noted in your linked video, the popular version of 'Macarena' is the remix by Bayside Boys. The original is a bit different.
Dr. Alban was born in Nigeria and migrated to Sweden of all places, at 23 years old, and became a DJ to finance his study of dentistry. Curiously, there were plenty of people moving from Africa to Central and Northern Europe back then, supplying the demand for black MCs in eurodance.
'Pump Up the Jam' features model Felly Kilingi in the video, although the actual woman vocal was performed by Ya Kid K — who only got credited on the US reissue of the single, and appeared in the following video ‘Get Up (Before The Night Is Over)’.
A lot of new info here, thank you! You are a gentleman and a scholar of the fine art of eurotrash.
