background

Dagmar from "Promiflash" explained the background of the song as follows:

"[...]" Do you know the thing called Tacata '", the guys seem to be asking in the first line of their chart storm for no reason. What does it really mean? In the context of the song, the term is not to be taken literally. Rather, it describes the sexy dance of women who shake whatever they have to match the song. The lines “I like it when the ladies do tacatá. People dance tacatá. Move your butt tactatá ”, so always use the term to describe the fast, rhythmic sequence of movements, matching the tonal pronunciation of the word. In this sense: off on the dance floor! "
