THE REVIEW

I take advantage of the opportunity provided to me by DeBaser.it and thank everyone who read my first two reviews. I also take this opportunity to write the last review of the year 2004, a year marked by pop, musically speaking, at least as far as I am concerned [really?]. I also take this opportunity to thank our Prime Minister for the hard work he does for us, but which has brought us back among the top six industrialized countries in the world (we were the fifth), which fills us with pride. Finally, I take this opportunity again to thank DeBaser and their managers for the space kindly granted to me.

As I mentioned at the beginning, I will now write the last review of 2004, and choosing an appropriate album is a very difficult if not challenging task. I thought about it for a long time and chose a very special album, the first album sung in English by the Queen of Colombian Latin Pop: Shakira!
The previous ones were sung in Spanish and had achieved great success throughout the Latin American area, making her reach a popularity similar to that of Jennifer Lopez, whose style of singing and expression she partly mirrors.
But let's get to the contents: this album contains the very famous song "Whenever Wherever" (yes, the one from the video), but also other beautiful songs, such as the opening cd, "Objection (Tango)", or "Fool", "Te Dejo Madrid" and the ironic "Poem To a Horse", which tells us that Shakira, besides being beautiful and dancing like (almost) no one else, is also very ironic. The production is always very well taken care of.

A beautiful album, 5***** a must-have. And again, many wishes for a happy 2005 to everyone.
