CD Reviews

A Beautiful Latina Album.
G. Merritt | Boulder, CO | 05/16/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Consider this album Exhibit "A" to my argument that, as a country we should embrace the rich Latin American culture, rather than building fences at our borders. Born in Colombia (and fluent in English, Brazilian Portuguese, Spanish, Arabic, French, and Italian), Shakira is a Latina singer-songwriter, musician, record producer, and dancer, best known for her powerful, contralto voice and sensual Arabic dance moves. This album reveals two things: Shakira is a perfectionist, and there is beauty in the Latin culture. Her critically-acclaimed 1999 MTV Unplugged performance in New York features 11 songs drawn mostly from her popular 1998 Spanish album, Dónde Están los Ladrones?, which was nominated for a Grammy Award. Those tracks include:



1. Octavo Día (En Vivo) 6:05

2. Si Te Vas (En Vivo) 3:54

3. Dónde Están Los Ladrones (En Vivo) 3:22

4. Moscas En La Casa (En Vivo) 4:02

5. Ciega, Sordomuda (En Vivo) 4:09

6. Inevitable (En Vivo) 3:39

7. Estoy Aquí (En Vivo) 4:58

8. Tú (En Vivo) 5:22

9. Sombra De Ti (En Vivo) 4:07

10. No Creo (En Vivo) 4:08

11. Ojos Así (En Vivo) 6:50

Great voice

"I saw Shakira uplugged on TV and just had to get that CD. She has a great voice and it is a pure joy to see her perform. Hope I will be able to visit her live some time."
Great performance at an intimate setting
P. Reeves | Rocky Mountains | 09/03/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Mainly I have to agree with the other positive reviews. While Shakira has continued to evolve, this unplugged performance captured an incredibly entertaining period of her career that, personally, I hope she returns to someday. Note that there are subtitles to all of the songs in both Spanish and English. If you're not fluent in Spanish, the English subs make the experience far richer. Some of the lyrics are (intentionally) hilarious.



All but one or two of the songs are in the "come back/don't leave, I can't live without you" genre, and while it seems just a bit obsessive, they are all very well done. Guess this is why she got the "Colombian Alanis Morrisette" label prior to the release of Laundry Service (after which, no one would connect the two!)."
