There are some songs that even if you have listened gazillion times, you won’t get over it. Subsequently, there are some tracks of Shakira that have always captivated fans over the years. Among them is the iconic song ‘Waka Waka’ which holds a special place in the hearts of many. Released in 2010 as the official anthem for the FIFA World Cup, the song became an instant sensation.

Remarkably, even after a decade after its release, the song has become a sensational hit, garnering over $3.70 billion views on YouTube. In fact, Shakira’s famous track is on the verge of breaking the record of Katy Perry’s ‘Roar’. The song was released in 2013 and has since then garnered 3.85 billion views.
