Free Music Notes for Live & Off the Record (CD & DVD)
Free Music Review: MINDBLOWING
Hit: 5 Stars
This DVD is by far one the best musical DVD's I've ever bought.
But I feel that what is so compelling to me is the reason she put this out. She wanted to give her fans a glimpse of the person she is and the life she leads. She does this amazingly well. The documentary was obviously my favorite part and that of which, I watched first. Then watching the concert, I believe my perception was entirely different than if I had viewed them in reverse order.
From watching this, I can now safely say that Shakira is an amazingly indescribable person and I am honored to have seen just a part of her life and hear her words as they are. I was so thrilled to her what she has to say about so many things, not just about her in particular, but the everything else. The DVD had me laughing as she is a funny girl, but also almost tearing up watching the physical abuse that she went through in that one segment(watch to find out). Oh, and her drumming was great, I was surprised, and...coming from a drummer, she wasn't all too bad.
Shakira fans..you won't be disappointed...but are we ever?
Free Music Review: Impressive!
Hit: 5 Stars
I am very satisfied with having bought "Live & Off The Record." I'm happy to see that Shakira sung a good number of her Spanish hits like "Ciega, Sordomuda" and "Si Te Vas." There was also a track that I wouldn't have expected to be there, "Back In Black." Of course its just a cover of the original, but it shows Shakira's love for rock music. Just as a `heads up' to those who have Shakira's MTV Unplugged album, her performances of "Tú," and "Estoy Aquí" are almost identical to the Unplugged versions.The DVD is the best part of the album, I think. It has some personal & revealing moments in interviews, it helps you to get to know her better as an artist. I love, also, how she speaks Spanish throughout the whole thing. It shows again how she really has a sense of self and loves her native tongue.
This is a good buy for true Shakira fans!
Free Music Review: Great DVD
Hit: 5 Stars
This DVD offers a great live Shakira concert. Her perfomance is quite impressive, and her vocals are awesome. You just can appreciate how much she loves doing this. The documentary is pretty good too, you get a close look of how Shakira is in a "regular day" basis. It's really worth buying it, you'll be surprised.
The CD is fine, just the compilation of the songs you heard on the DVD. They didn't include 'Inevitable', but it's a fun CD to listen to.
By the way, what's the deal with trashing Shakira for her blonde hair and her English songs. She's a great artist even if she has green or blue hair....I know 'She sounds better in Spanish', but she sounds great in English too. I think she has the right to take her music anywhere she pleases to, and if that implies singing in English or dying her hair, well too bad for people who don't welcome changes.
Free Music Review: Even though is not the best, is still great
Hit: 5 Stars
I just can't see why people waste their time writing bad critics about this slbum... If you don't like it, just sell it!!! And I think Amazon should not allow people to come here and insult artsits and their music....Anyway, even though the show is not complete and the CD doesn't have the best performances, is still a great way to remember the great Tour of the Mongoose, one of the most amazing in history... Or am I wrong??? The show is great, and the documentary is a perfect way for Shakira fans to get to know her a little bit more... And Shakira still rocks!!! Her music still great, and this CD & DVD is the best way to show it.
P.S. If you don't like Shakira's voice, or music, or songs, or the DVD, please don't come here to talk bad about it, show some respect, if you can.
Free Music Review: My Favorite Shakira CD
Hit: 5 Stars
I purchased this CD after I heard the song "Poem To a Horse." I don't normally buy live CD's b/c I don't think most artists record them well. Shakira does. Shakira's vocals are strong and her voice is steady. You will not be disappointed if you are a Shakira fan.
This CD is a collection of her best and most popular hits. I don't speak fluent Spanish, but I enjoy the Spanish songs as much as the English ones. She sings her songs with such passion that it's impossible not to enjoy all of them. The crowd is constantly roaring or singing along with Shakira. It adds such energy to the CD that you cannot help but wish you were there.
I have not viewed the DVD yet, but according to reviews on this site, I will enjoy that even more than my CD.
