For some reason just the song name makes me think this will be another Don't Bother and flop in the U.S. Yeah, that's what I thought at first. I don't know if I'm ready for another Hips Don't Lie. I don't think another HDL would work. It was hot then, but I don't think she should continue in that direction at all.

I think I have liked everything she has come out with even if I've never been a big follower or bought her albums or singles. I have to admit her stuff is usually catchy so I am sure this will be more of the same! Looking forward to hearing it.

For some reason just the song name makes me think this will be another Don't Bother and flop in the U.S. Not that this means much, but last Tuesday she was auditioning dancers for her new video. They auditioned to a "dancey/trace like song," according to the people that where there. Was this an instrumental of She Wolf? I don't know, but since she did audition dancers for her "She Wolf" video, I'm guessing the song is a dance song?

Very excited for this! The title makes me think it will be a 2009 "Ojos Asi". Which will make me very happy.

I hope this new single has a multi-layered sound of sorts. I for one would love to hear something that maintains that rock and roll edge that made her famous to begin with, but also incorporates something along the line of the aggressive rhythm, electronia leaning of "Timor" perhaps. Or perhaps something that leans somewhat contemporary R&B but is also infused with traditional Latin or Arabic instruments/sounds to make it sound original and somewhat unconventional, which Shakira has also built her career upon.
She has gone this far by sounding friendly enough for contemporary radio while also making an honest effort to bend the rules and make it sound as unconventional as possible. And I think Shakira, who has control of her career in the most part, understands that better than anybody, so I'm optimistic she won't simply try and duplicate "Hips Don't Lie" fivefold.
Sincerely, Noah Eaton

Yeah, I was thinking of something along the lines of "Las de la Intuition" too, she just seems to be heading in that musical direction. I LOVE that track. The good thing about Shakira is she has been able to produce a successful dance/pop spanish album as well as a killer rock spanish album... and then successfully crossed over into english! She's amazing.

I came across "Shakira" through an x-relationship in 2002.... "Estoy Aqui"... was the track and it is still my favorite..apparently it was released in 1996..... but I Luv it regardless years after it's release!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In regards to "Beautiful Liar".. the Free Mason's remix made that track for me.
Love Shakira!

That better not be the song...I doubt it is...Sounds like a random bluegrass instrumental.

Oh my god you guys are such tools. That's just some random crappy bluegrass sample and it's not even anything more than a 15 second instrumental - if the actual song sounds like that it will be shit.

Actually the clip I heard sounds very addicting; it has been looping in my head for the past hour. If the actual song sounds anything like the clip it'll be brilliant.

Sounds great from the clip, fresh and different from everything else on the radio. Loving the bluegrass influences.
