The most I can say for this song is that it's not "Underneath Your Clothes."ย What a truly wretched listening experience. That's the only song from the CD that I really like. The song I mentioned earlier, "Objection" is okay, but can get annoying. "Whenever, Wherever" I do not like at all.

Love it! I thought "Suerte" was even better though, and I don't even know Spanish.

They wouldn't let her join the school choir when she was younger because her teacher told her she sounded like a goat And her teacher was right. After that happened whenever Shakira would win a singing contest Shakira would go up to the teacher and put her awards on his desk and tell him "Look what the goat voice got me." I LOVE Suerte/WW and I miss her :)ย I can't wait for her to release her new Spanish album :)ย Her new album will be out in a month or two

I LOVED THIS. Both the English and Spanish versions were JAMs. The video was hot, too. Unfortunately, I didn't love the album. :( I remember one time I was listening to "Ready for the Good Times" and I knocked over a huge stack of CDs and they all crashed to my wooden floor. I was so pissed and I never listened to the song again.

This was probably my favourite song back in 2002. I really loved this song.

I liked this one a lot as well.
I'm looking forward to her new English album in November.
I hope the singles are as catchy as the the ones from "Laundry Service".

I like her Spanish songs better; I agreed with a review I read of Laundry Service I can't remember if it was Blender or RollingStone, I think Blender. They said her English language songs just sound so silly, where as the spanish versions of her songs sound hella sexy. I like her voice when she is singing in Spanish far more than in English. Though this was better than "Underneath Your Clothes," I loathed that song to the point that I wanted to break the radio or TV where ever i heard or saw the song being played. Now Ojos Asi, that is a hellahot song, though I hate the English version.

Her breakthrough single in America, and the first-ever #1 on what would become the Pulse 100. Myself, I liked it too -- a #4 peak on my personal chart. However, the real reason I'm making this topic is to point out its crazy-ass run on TRL (and so I can finally delete the file on my computer which had this saved): 8-9-6-10-6-10-9-6-4-8-4-8-4-5-4-6-9-10-5-4-5-5-7-7-2-7-5-7-9-8-9-7-3-5-7-4- 5-3-7-9-6-7-3-4-7-6-7-off-off-10-7-7-9-off-9-6-8-7-8-6-off-8-4-3-5-9-5-9-9 It went to #6 on the Hot 100 in 2002 and oh yeah did you hear that TRL will soon be cancelled on MTV due to poor ratings?

This is pretty good. My favorite of hers is "Underneath Your Clothes".

I love this song. I also love the video, I thought the scenery was gorgeous especially when she was dancing in between those horses.

This is the song that got me into Shakira. I like it, but I prefer "Underneath Your Clothes" and "Objection."

This was, and still is, excellent. I prefer Ojos Asi & La Tortura, but this is still my favorite English single from her. She's yet to release another English track that's quite on this level.

Great song.
The MadTV parody of the song/video is epic.

LOVE this song. What a throwback.
Outside of US, this song was HUGE and put her on the map. I love the panpipes in the song, it's really catchy, and the chorus is really catchy.

The studio version vocals in this one are horrid, she sings it way better live.

Wow, can't believe there's no thread for this!
2002 pop classic. It was HUGE in Europe, and did decent in North America, peaking at #6 on the Hot 100. This song just makes me happy whenever I listen to it, the chorus is what really makes the song what it is. I loved the water video for this song, it really fit with the theme of the song in my opinion.
Still hear it as a recurrent on radio every now and then, and it brings me back to 2002. The fact that she has not one but two GLOBAL smashes is amazing for her as an artist - even Beyonce doesn't have that.

I don't really have a desire to listen to it nowadays, but I did like it when it was released.
