The acoustic version was released as a B-Side , not the original, so she could still release it as a single (the original of course). Plus I wouldn`t be surprised if it is the 3rd single, because shakira.com likes to give out clues sometimes. And they`ve put 4 instrumental songs on the site: "La Tortura", "No", "La Pared" & "Obtener un si". So maybe that`s shakira.com`s way of telling us what the next single is .

Escondite Ingles should be the next single. She has sold close to 500k right? is that bad or good?

It is excellent for an spanish album , it would be ok/good if it was an english album. She may be able to achieve platinum status with FO1 before OF2 is released.

For a Spanish album that`s excellent! Since Spanish Platino is 200k, and that`s just for shipments, she`s sold close to 500k, so I wonder how much she`s shipped. Probably close to 800k, which is 4x platino .

Oh thanks. I thought that was bad because of the sales of L.S.

I saw the video for this today on MTV Espanol; has a very Christina Aguilera Voice Within feel to the video.

Actually, if you're looking at it from that perspective. I think you'll find that Voice Within is more like "Tu".
Which Shakira released first.

I wasn't making this some Shakira/Christina thing; I was just trying to say what the video to it felt like to me.

I didn't really "get" the video to this. It reminds me of a song in English that I don't particularly like, but for the life of me I can't remember what song that is.

I'm still trying to understand this release. It's one of my least favorites on the album. It's okay though.

I said the video to this song was similar in nature to X-Tina's "Voice Within" not that the songs were similar.

This is has become my favorite song on the CD replacing "La Pared" and I think the videos is one of the best videos I've ever seen. It fits perfectly with the lyrics of the song, it's very emotional and beautifully shot. However, I am not sure how successful this song will be as a single. Latin Music seems to have a place for ballads still though, so this may succeed after "La Tortura" finally fades away.

The video premieres today (August 29) at Aol music: First View: Shakira Broken hearts hurt in any language. Be the first to see sexy Latina Shakira get over hers in this brand-new video for 'No.' It's an AOL Music exclusive. WORLD PREMIERE: Shakira Shakira's new music video, 'No,' proves that love and heartache know no language barriers. You don't have to be fluent in Spanish to appreciate the beauty or depth of the video, but for the next 24 hours, you do have to be on aolmusic.com to watch it. music.aol.com/franchise/firstview.adp

The video kind of reminds me of the video for Joan Osborne's "One Of Us" if I remember that video correctly. I haven't seen it in several years. This video is gorgeous though.. one of the best of the year.

I love the video but the song as a single doesn't cut it for me. I heard it today and I found the song hella long... I don't wanna listen that song in the radio again.

It's so similar to other black and white videos with chicks. "My Immortal" and "Voice Within" as examples but at least its watchable.

UGH. Is she out of her mind? Escondite Ingles should be the 3rd single.

I'm hoping for "La Pared". I love "No," but I wish "La Pared" would have been the 2nd single. It would have been nice to see that song getting the spotlight that "No" is getting. I love "No," but its too slow and long for radio.

Even Shakira said No is too long and slow for radio, she just wanted to release it because it's such a good song. I think La Pared is just as good of a song so why didn't she release that? Also, La Pared would've done great in Europe. Germany would've loved it.

"Las De La Intuición" would be my pick for the next single, it's one of my favorites
but now i'm hearing she might not even have more singles after "No" now that Oral Fixation vol. 2 will be coming out, and the first single "Your Dirty Little Secrets" coming out next month
