Aserejé

Aserejé, also known as "The Ketchup Song," is a song by the Spanish pop group Las Ketchup. It was released in 2002 as the lead single from their debut album, Hijas del Tomate. The song achieved massive international success, topping the charts in numerous countries and becoming one of the best-selling singles of the 21st century.

The lyrics of Aserejé are sung in a Spanish dialect and tell the story of Diego, a young man who goes to a nightclub and dances all night. The chorus is a phonetic approximation of English phrases, leading to widespread misinterpretation and parodies. The most famous part of the chorus is "Aserejé, ja de jé, de jebe tu de jebere, seibiunouva, majavaja, " which is said to be derived from a misheard rendition of The Sugarhill Gang's "Rapper's Delight." This nonsensical chant contributed significantly to the song's catchy and memorable quality.

The music video for Aserejé features the three sisters of Las Ketchup dancing on a beach, which became an iconic image associated with the song. The song's upbeat tempo and infectious melody made it a global phenomenon, and it remains a popular party anthem. Despite its simple lyrics, Aserejé's cultural impact is notable for its widespread popularity and the numerous interpretations and parodies it inspired.
