The Hero hitmaker's flamenco-style party anthem was released last year (14) and the promo for the Spanish-language recording, which featured collaborators Descemer Bueno and Gente de Zona, has since set a major new milestone on the video-sharing platform, reports Billboard.com.

Iglesias, who is currently on tour with his Sex & Love shows, has expressed his gratitude to fans in a video message on Instagram.com, in which he says, "Hey guys, we're here in Europe for a few shows. I wanted to thank all my fans for getting Bailando, the Spanish version, to one billion views... So gracias (thank you), I love you guys!"

In the accompanying caption, he brands the achievement "incredible".
