(3 out of 5 stars)
"In early 2002, a friend from Bogota told me of this new, young singer
that was becoming a rage in Colombia.
I listened to her earlier work and realized that this young artist would be hot -
it was just a matter of time.
Shakira does not dissapoint.
Best songs:
Las De La Intuicion
En Tus Pupilas
Para Obtener Un Si
How Do You Do
La Tortura - Sanz Alternative
A remarkable burst of creativity combining Latin, Anglo, Reggae, Arabic, Mexican - pop rock.
A fusion of different cultural sounds resulting in something fresh and wonderful.
Volume One is Latin.
Even though you may not understand the words, the music takes you to a place
where barriers do not exsist.
Volume Two is in English.
The lyrics are weak.
Not a great collection of songs, but ...
The DVD (especially the first music video) is excellent."
