Ill do a review for you :P

 

1. How Do You Do: Ultimate Opening track. a really strange choir chant the lords prayer, but then shakira comes in. the song is about how people believe in god but how he fails to anything to help people.

 

'hey do you feel our pain, or walk in our shoes. Have you ever felt the starve or is your belly always full?'

 

2. Don't Bother: Youve heard this :P I personally love it (obviously lol) but you werent o fond of it, so i wont go into detail :P

 

'She's almost 6 ft tall, she must think Im a flee, im really a cat you see, and its not my lost life at all'

 

3. Illegal: Imagine a laid back version of UYC, kinda like that, not as anthemic, but still great.

 

'It should be illegal to decieve a womans heart'

 

4. The Day And the time: the translation of 'Dia Especial' from FO1, not sure if you heard it. Really laid back, and it may not be a standout, but after listening to the album a few times, it really grows on you, and is really beautiful song

 

'My heart is waiting'

 

5. Animal City: this song is HOT. It's like the 2006 version of 'Whenever, Wherever' one of the standouts of the album. You'll be addicted

 

'Once you have become a star, youve got no right to bitch'

 

6. Dreams For Plans: really laid back song, one of the ballads on the album. really relaxing.

 

'have we changed our hopes for fearsand our dreams for plans'

 

7. Hey You: You'll be hooked from the figner click. Imagine 'My Humps' meets 'Downtown' and your halfway there. One of my favs on the album, and it drills itself in your brain and does not go away! :P

 

'Id like to be the owner of the zipper on your jeans and the thing that makes you happy'

 

8: Your Embrace: Kind of like dreams For Plans, really laid back, but really beautiful as well.

 

'without you this place looks like Lodnon it rains everyday'

 

9. Costume Makes The Clown: You've never seen shaki like this! a thunderous guitar brings her in when she purrs 'I told you I felt lucky with my humle breasts' Probably the rockiest song she has done, and I believe her most personal english lyrics to date. My friend says the riff reminds him of korn :o

 

fav line 'promises i made to you went down the sink, i really hope i havent hurt your self-esteem'

 

10. Something: A beautiful song with a french opening when she whispers 'I cannot live without your eyes' A really beatiful love song

 

fav line 'If this was meant to be, dont condemn me to be free'

 

11. Timor: Political Disco :cheer: really powerful lyrics to the backing track that WILL make you dance. My fav song of the album. You'll love it.

 

Fav line 'It's alright, It's alright, coz the news tells hal the truth: hearing what we wants the secret of eternal youth

 

12. Hips Don't Lie: Amazing song which will be the biggest song of 2006 :heart:

 

fav line 'never really knew she could dance like this, she make a man wanna speak spanish'

 

13: la Tortura Alternate Mix: Im sure you've heard La Tortura? if you havent, omg! :o this is the spanglsh version, and althought the spanish version is better, this so totally rocks

 

Fav Line' Fue Una Tortura, Pederte!'

 

It's one of the strongest albums of the year. not many artists can do songs Like Timor, then jump to Costume Makes The Clown, thenflip to Hips Dont Lie, but then again, thats what makes Shaki so great.

 

I think you'd grow to love all the tracks. However, you will lvoe these instantly

 

Animal City

Hey You

Hips Dont Lie

Timor

La Tortura

 

If you want, i can send you some of the songs and then you can decide if you like them?

There's no Hips Don't Lie type songs on OF2 but there are some much better songs than DB.

 

I don't think La Tortura will be on the OF2 re release in the UK. The Europe re release of OF2 has a Don't Bother mix instead.

i havent got FO or OF2, but i LOVE la tortura, HDL is great and DB is fantastic too and i love LS...but ive heard Timor and despite the political message its just such $h!t, and the day and the time is a really dull lifeless ballad...ive not heard anything else, will i like the album

Listen to full streams of all the songs here;

Then see what you think.

 

Listen to Animal City - it's the best one IMO. The best ballad is Your Embrace.

Well... I really LOVED Laundry Service, but was really disappointed when I heard Don't Bother, La Tortura and Hips Don't Lie, so I don't think i'll be buying :(

 

Still I do like Shakira, but not her new material :(
