This remix, accompanied by a lyric video, marks a significant milestone as it is the first official remix of the Barbie anthem by AQUA.

Tiësto echoed these sentiments, expressing his honor in remixing one of the most iconic pop songs in history. He shared that his daughter’s love for the song inspired the remix, adding a personal touch to the project.

AQUA, best known for their late ’90s hits, shot to fame with their debut album ‘Aquarium’ in 1997. Their song ‘Barbie Girl’ became a global phenomenon, with its playful aesthetic and catchy lyrics. Today, AQUA continues to tour worldwide, bringing back the nostalgia of the late ’90s.
