After this amazing month of world cup glory I just wanted to send a special thank you to the group Zangalewa for contributing the anthemic chorus from their hit song, Zangalewa, which inspired Waka Waka and symbolizes the true spirit of the World Cup — bringing together cultures and influences from all over the world. To hear the band’s original “Zangalewa” check out this link. Shakira

Check out this amazing video made by the people of a small town in Spain called Herreruela. It has a population of just 396 - of which, more than half participated in the video. The idea was, apparently, to mix rural ambiance with surreal situations while supporting the Spanish national team. Here at ShakiraHQ, we are very impressed.

Huge congratulations to Spain, on winning their first ever World Cup, with a narrow win over the Netherlands in South Africa yesterday. As you'll see from the video playlist above, Waka Waka (This Time For Africa) has been the soundtrack for many Spanish celebrations, from the stadium to Spain itself.

We also discovered today that Waka Waka is now Number One in all countries served by radio network Los 40 Principales - Spain, Mexico, Guatemala, Costa Rica and Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, Chile and Argentina. Only one artist, Alejandro Sanz, has ever achieved this before. Pretty amazing.
