stick to singing in Spanish!
Shakira has definite potential for making good music (Laundry Service), but Oral Fixation isn't it! Hips Don't Lie and La Tortura are the only two songs that are worth listening to on this cd. Laundry Service is a better Shakira cd because it has a mix between Spanish songs and English songs. But making an English singing cd cold turkey isn't cool. She wanted to explore both fields and that's fine, I'm cool with that. But Shakira, please go back to singing in Spanish!
Unfair!
For Shakira fans who supported her by buying the initial release of the album it's unfair to have to have a re-release with 2 new songs added. Next time I'll wait to buy her CD or just rip it from someone else. In this day and age when artists are constantly asking their fans to buy the CD instead of burning a copy from a friend, I would expect the artists to show some loyalty as well. I'm not buying the same CD twice for 2 extra songs, even though those 2 songs are probably the best on the album.
Deep and Bizarre...
I have been a Shakira fan since I was 14 years old with her smash hit album "Pies Descalzos". This album reminded me alot of "Pies Descalzos". At first, some of the songs were too slow and too deep in thought for me to actually sit there and listen to it like the song "Dreams for Plans" and "Illegal", but then, the more I listened, the more I enjoyed it. There are so many themes and interpretations of these songs. It is like an indepth novel which has many interpretations. It's not a fun, catchy album like "Laundry Service" so you actually have to read into the song to enjoy it. It is exceptionally well written and creative!
