Metal Injection shared this unfortunate discovery pointing to other videos that have surfaced of the same filmed balcony but set to different songs, including Cher’s cover of ABBA’s “The Winner Takes It All.”
The biggest bummer about this news form Metal Injection? It appears the original video featured Los del Rio’s “Macarena.” UGH!
