Loads of people do! Panpipes rule!

One too many words. It should read,

"Who Likes This Bitch Shakira?"

JM, Sunday, 14 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

She is a new nadir.

Clarke B., Sunday, 14 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

what/who is nadir???

He was the green party candidate in the 2000 US presidential election.

So Shakira is taking valuable attention away from Britney while Christina swoops in and steals the crown.

god don't ask me, i like everything.

A nadir is the opposite of an apex - the lowest point in a given "curve of quality," so to speak. Wouldn't it be interesting to see how many degrees of separation are between Shakira and Ralphie?

if she continues to make boatloads of $$ is she gonna do a "britney" and no longer be able to sing the "small and humble" line of that annoying song?

william, Sunday, 14 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

She's 'Dirty Britney'...

I like her single.

The samples of the album on the single are rub.

DV, Monday, 15 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

The album is great. Even songs that are objectively awful like "Underneath Your Clothes" are fantastic.

Tim, Monday, 15 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I've not heard her record(s) but I've seen her perform "Wherever, Whenever" twice on TOTP. Truly bizarre vocal noises where the singing would normally be! (NOT a bad thing in itself, but...)

Jeff W, Monday, 15 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I didnt like her until I heard her on French radio. But now I do.

Tom, Monday, 15 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Are you sure that wasnt her doing suerte(whenever wherever in spanish, 10 times better)

Chupa-Cabras, Monday, 15 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I actively hate "Underneath Your Clothes", but I get extremely happy whenever I hear it on the radio because it makes me laugh and laugh. "Whenever, Wherever" is a great song because of the "small and humble" line.

Dan Perry, Monday, 15 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Shakira's voice is like a hot leaden poker sticking into my eardrums. She's like an ethnic Alanis Morrisette, meaning she is just as screechy and atonal but also throws in "transporting" trills and shrieks to make it all the more unbearable. I'd gladly murder them both.

Ally, Monday, 15 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I freely admit to wanting to pay money to see that.

Ned Raggett, Monday, 15 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Can I join in?

RickyT, Monday, 15 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I LIKE SHAKIRA. But not that "small and humble" line, that's terrible, I like the horses and the "I'm at your feet". She's got really good energy, and how 'bout those pan pipes?

Otis Wheeler, Monday, 15 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

As I was telling Rainy, the twisted grammar of "And these two eyes that for no other/The day you leave will cry a river" pleases me very much. "Mountains" line = perfect sense, genius but overpublicized.

Graham, Monday, 15 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

That kitteny voice trick at the end of 'Underneath Your Clothes' is giving me the most unrelenting E.G. Daily flashbacks.

six months pass...
so who in this bitch apart from Tim has the LP? I'm still not convinced about "Whenever..." but "Underneath..." is a great song and "Objection (Tango)" sounded like a cracking single this morning (great video, also). Are there any songs that match these two on the LP?

Jeff W, Wednesday, 16 October 2002 07:20 (twenty-three years ago)

Te Dejo Madrid + Eyes Like Yours

"Ojos Asi" from her last Spanish-language album is a great piece of faux-Middle Eastern pop. Other than that, she's pretty much worthless.

I reviewed the album (for Popmatters.com) and I think it is a way-overproduced messy guilty pleasure with some pretty good songs underneath it all. Some of the non-singles are great, some are crap, but it's all part of a package with Shakira. I know her voice is annoying and her English language skills need help, but I have no problem with her except the fear of the future; she should just be a rock star shaking her culo all over the place instead of a balladeer.

i think her video's great, when you mute it and put on some amon tobin.
what's this humble line about btw?
