General comments:

I have been unsubscribed for a couple of months now due to a holiday trip to Chile and Argentina and a lack of free time, but I had to get back to let you know about an amazing artist named Shakira.
     She's from Colombia, of Arabic origin, and is all the rage in South America. I first discovered her on Amazon, while I was searching for music by Mana (an excellent Mexican rock band). I listened to a couple of her songs and then decided to try her album ¿Dónde están los ladrones?. At first she sounded too much like Alanis Morissette and for a couple of months I dismissed her as a clone. However, during my recent trip I learned all about her from my niece and realized just how immensely popular she is there. Seeing a few clips of her MTV unplugged convinced me about how good she is. Her song 'Ojos así' is simply a brilliant amalgam of cultures.
     She has three albums out: Pies Descalzos (I recently got this and don't have an opinion), ¿Dónde están los ladrones? (excellent), MTV Unplugged (songs are mostly from ¿Dónde están los ladrones?...but rearranged and turned into something unique). (kyrlidis@earthlink.net)

*Definitely* worth a listen. I've been a huge fan for about a year or so now. The first song I heard of hers was "Te Espero Sentada" from Pies Descalzos. I enjoy both Pies Descalzos and ¿Dónde están los ladrones? but listen to the latter far more often. It was in my player for a couple of months straight. I also have the Remix album when I was on a "buy anything Shakira kick," but am not fond of remixes so never listen to it.
     I think she's brilliant—and for those who don't speak Spanish, she provides the lyrics. Albeit, she doesn't give translations, but gives you a leg-up on figuring the songs out. ;-)
     Favorite songs: "Inevitable", "Octavo Dia", "Ojos Asi", "Te Espero Sentada".
     Enjoy! :-) (ho@his.com

I knew nothing about Shakira until she started the cross-over but I think she looks AMAZING and watching her perform is nearly a religious experience haha. I have laundry service and am blown away, I can't wait until she masters English enough to become a kick-ass songwriter like she is in Spanish. Her song "inevitable" in Spanish is amazing!!!!!! That's all for now I find her incredibly talented and not to mention mesmerizingly beautiful. I've never been a fan of "Latin music" per se but I've been listening to her English cd non-stop and love the rock influence in her music. Her voice just grabs me. (RocketsTail@aol.com)

Comments:

I love this album so much I find it hard to say anything constructively critical about it. It should be a must-try for all fans of rock/pop music. Overall it's a really upbeat album, one that lifts my spirits and energy level and gets me dancing. The music isn't terribly different from the songs on Pies Descalzos, but somehow it feels like a stronger album to me. And it doesn't matter anyway, since they're both so good. There are upbeat dance songs, aching love ballads, even a smattering of politics. Don't mistake Shakira for your average puff singer or this album for mere candy; there's real substance here in her lyrics and depth in her songwriting, and that makes it all the more fun to dance to.

Comments:

If you like ¿Dónde están los ladrones?, this album is definitely worth getting, even though all but 1 of the 11 songs are from ¿Dónde están los ladrones?. The acoustic arrangements bring out the instrumentation much more than on the cd. Shakira's voice is strong, and the music is energetic. And quite a few songs are markedly different from their original versions, namely "Ciega, Sordumuda" which gets a mariachi treatment, "Estoy Aquí" and "No Creo" which gets a Caribbean flavor.

Comments:

I was ready for Laundry Service to be disastrous. I was curious many months back when I heard she was working on an English language album. I was excited when I first heard she had a new album, weirded out when I saw the cover. I can understand the urge to do the cross-over thing, whether that came from her, the record company, or both. But Shakira was a great singer and songwriter in Spanish and a beautiful woman as a brunette. I readily admit being annoyed seeing her dye her hair blond and vamp around like Britney Spears. (No, I am not against people changing their hair color, though I do think people generally look better with their natural color). Of course, now she is getting attention, mentions in mainstream magazines, and late-night appearances on the talk shows and Saturday Night Live. I personally would prefer to see her be a really good but less well-known Spanish language singer than a popular and famous but mediocre English language singer.
     Surprisingly, it's a decent album. "Tango" is catchy and still employs that blend of rock, Latin, and Middle Eastern sounds she has, and the traditional instruments are used on the song. There's some fun stuff on here, including the English language version of "Ojos Así" and the first single, "Whenever, Wherever," which is made interesting through the use of native Colombian instrumentation. I think the Spanish songs are generally better than the English ones (3 are originals, 2 are Spanish language versions of the first 2 singles). And while I admire her learning English and writing and producing the album herself, I think she should have used a co-lyricist. Gloria Estefan did a great job with the translation of "Ojos Así". Some of the lyrics on the English language songs are really bad, but the music is upbeat. There's nothing really awful on Laundry Service, but there's nothing as good as the music on Pies Descalzos or ¿Dónde están los ladrones?. (JoAnn Whetsell)

Comments:

Please note that this is a copy-protected disc.

Shakira is back with an album that makes Laundry Service pale in comparison. Although the English language is gone (it will return in Oral Fixation, Vol. 2), American music influences are still present and mixed with reggae (or is it calypso?) and some 60s/70s influences. There seems to be more attention to the background atmosphere of the songs than on her past albums; one song sounds like it could be on the soundtrack to a Doris Day movie (I still like it). In short, it's a strong and varied album with ballads and dance tracks that are enjoyable to listen to and stand up well to repeated listens. Even the 2 alternative versions at the end are good. (For just a little more money, the DVD version includes English translations of the lyrics and a cute "making of" video.) (JoAnn Whetsell)

Shakira's second album of 2005 is not as good as its Spanish language counterpart, but it's much better than her English language debut, Laundry Service. Two of the songs are repeats from Vol. 1; the rest are all new. And while most of them are about different aspects of love and relationships, she addresses the mainstream's waning attention to people living through crises on the closing track, "Timor," and tackles religion on the opening track, "How Do You Do," a risky song that begins and ends with the intonations of a choir. In between is a lot of catchy pop-rock, albeit with better beats and melodies than lyrics. (JoAnn Whetsell)

Comments:

The lyrics aren't great (okay, often insipid) and the wolf call on the title track is alternately hilarious and absurd, but the beats are infectious and I love the inflections of music from around the world. The album makes me shake my booty, and that's always a good thing. (JoAnn Whetsell)

Comments:

No spark throughout most of the album. The exception is the lovely "Empire" which for some reason reminds me of Seal? odd. (Andrew, mixplusik@gmail.com)

A cool pop album but, sadly, not much more. Rating: 52/100. Best tracks: "Chasing Shadows," "Broken Record," "Empire." (raschee@gmail.com)

Not terrible, but not terribly interesting either. "Empire" is by far the best song here, although I really (surprisingly) like the Blake Shelton duet "Medicine" as well. Good for Shakira for trying some different things though (country, ska, and reggae influences, and do I hear thumb piano?), but I actually think the second half of the album ("23," "The One Thing") is better even though the songs are more straightforward pop/rock. (JoAnn Whetsell)
