Free Music Notes for Laundry Service
Free Music Review: PODEROSA EN AMBOS IDIOMAS!!!
Hit: 5 Stars
Shakira siempre fue mi artista latina favorita; es increible lo que alguien con gran talento puede hacer cuando tiene una gran confianza en si mismo y gente que lo apoye y crea en el; este es para mi el mejor disco de Shakira, donde ella lo ha entregado practicamente todo; canciones como TANGO, SUERTE (WHENEVER) y TE DEJO MADRID son autenticos bombazos de puro rock; lindas baladas como UNDERNEATH YOUR CLOTHES, YOU'RE THE ONE, melodias pop impresionantes como FOOL, QUE ME QUEDES TU, en total, y hasta musica al puro estilo hindu como EYES LIKE YOURS; este disco es indispensable para no solo los fans de Shakira, sino para todo fan del pop en general (por cierto, que bien pronuncia el idioma ingles).Free Music Review: A guilty pleasure

I really don't care much for pop music, much less latin pop music when that crossover explosion happened (which I completely blame on Ricky Martin for creating) but I'll make an exception with Shakira's "Laundry Service". The first time I actually heard her music was when the music video for "Whatever, Whenever" came out six years ago. The song was pure ear candy with its infectious pop hooks. So I eventually bought Shakira's "Laundry Service". Much to my surprise I actually enjoyed the cd. The music is filled with catchy pop/rock hooks without being overly polished. I think the songwriting is kinda weak and at times silly. I thought Shakira sounds the best singing in her native tongue than in english but that's just me. Another flaw is Shakira's vocals which is somewhat shrill at times but otherwise this album is a fun, guilty pleasure of mine.Free Music Review: Excellent Sound, a Good First Crossover!

This is an excellent first English Language disc by an artist who was already well established in the Latin world. The rock sounds are here especially with Underneath Your Clothes, which sounds a lot like Aerosmith's Dream On. Those of you who enjoyed her superior prior works (Pies Descalzo and Donde Estan Los Ladrones) may be a little disappointed in the commerical direction that this one went (take the pop candy song Whenever). Also some of the English lyrics are really non-sensical and we are not sure what the title Laundry Service has to do with anything on the disc. This is what prevented me from giving the disc 5 stars. Shakira has a good sense for great sound and music is her strong point over lyrics. But her Lebonese roots engrained in many of her sounds gives her music a unique feel to it that will keep her as a megastar for many years to come!Free Music Review: Tremendous step for Latin-influenced English rock

Like a new toy or a brand new pair of shoes Colombia-born and bred superstar Shakira is just as likable and irresistible on Laundry. Despite having never spoken English before making this disc she sounds quite adept singing it, as evident in lead single "Whenever, Wherever," by far the best song on record. This unique blend of Latin rhythms and Middle East-influenced instrumentation isn't just heard in the smash aforementioned lead single--it echoes throughout the entire disc. From the thundering tango opener "Objection" to the soft-and-soaring "Underneath" Shakira bleats her Latin heart out over great tracks like "Rules," "Ready," "Fool," "Te Dejo Madrid" and the English-language version of "Ojos Asi" (Shakira's big international hit) known here as "Eyes Like Yours." "Suerte" and "Te Aviso, Te Anuncio" ("Whenever, Wherever" and "Objection," respectively) are presented as bonuses in Shakira's native Spanish, and sound just as good, if not a little better (since the performer sounds more comfortable, and understandly so). There's a slight misstep here and there, but overall Laundry is arguably the best Latin-tinged album since Selena's last.Free Music Review: How many different ways can you say hot?

The looks, the voice...not to mention the content of the CD. Great fun.
