Product Description

Colombian superstar Shakira's first English-language disc, Laundry Service, carries the pointed credit "Entire Album Produced by Shakira." That might be a signal to U.S. fans who helped two of her previous discs go platinum under the media radar--a sign that this planned breakthrough has more to offer than the input of a score of image makers and outside writers. And it does; even the occasional clunky lyric comes directly from her overflowing heart. Laundry Service's meld of danceable pop and rockier ideas and textures follows the similar path of the singer-songwriter's previous work. Indeed, for all its high-end production values, the record is ultimately one of the least glossy crossover vehicles imaginable. Despite an occasional lean toward Celine Dion territory ("Underneath Your Clothes"), it has a freshness that's sure to win over new listeners even after the first single, the sly "Whenever, Wherever," has reached the saturation point. While still not fully formed as an artist, she's getting close to something of her own--something that may flower after she dumps the vocal Alanis-isms. For now, it's still a pleasure to watch her grow. --Rickey Wright

Format:Audio CD
This album is written well for the first album sung in English by Shakira. All the English songs are good except for Ready for the good times and the English version of Ojos Asi(Eyes Like Yours).In Spanish Ojos Asi has more of a fast beat, it is much better. Que Me Quedes Tu, Te Dejo Madrid, and the Spanish versions of Whenever Wherever, and Objection Tango are better in Spanish. Overall it's a good CD and I would recommend you buy this Cd before you buy an all Spanish Cd because you can learn some of the songs on this Cd en espanol.

Originally buying this album because of the memories it had for me - a particular song that had been played at a "dance" with friends - I never thought I would love it for anything more than the few songs used. I am not often a fan of "modern pop," my tastes being more akin to Bowie than Britney, but this album, though inferior to Shakira's earlier, less bleach-blonde-influenced "Donde Estan las Ladrones" has great vocal, Alanis-style excellent, though often oddly worded lyrics, danceable but still melodic music, and great skill - Shakira wrote the lyrics and music herself.
Although, I must say, I prefer the pre-blonde image of the performer, personally.

If you haven't bought this CD ,yet you should.It is such a great CD with her smash hits Whenever Wherever,Underneath Your Clothes,and Objection(Tango).Although the hole CD is music to your ears with songs like The One and Eyes Like Yours that are
destined to be hits.This CD as sold over 3 million copies in the US alone since mid November 2001.I think you'll love listening to this CD and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
