It's thrilling--in any language--to hear new music from Colombian superstar Shakira. And it's been a long time coming. Shakira's English crossover opus, Laundry Service, was released in 2001. The Spanish Donde Estan Los Ladrones came three years before that. Fijacion Oral, Volumen 1 is the first of two new discs; an English counterpart is due in November. Shakira's bleating, biting voice is in fine form, and it gives the material an electric urgency. She's girlish and innocent during the glittering "Dia de Enero" and sensual and seductive amid the thundering beats of "Lo Imprescindible." A talented stable of producers, including former Soda Stereo vocalist Gustavo Cerati, has swathed Shakira in rhythm-based arrangements. But the album's best moments come when Shakira channels her inner--and innate--rock goddess. "La Tortura" is a hurts-so-good break-up duet with Alejandro Sanz, and "Escondite Ingles" rides a beach-party guitar groove. --Joey Guerra

nOT what I expected.......2005-06-15
Cant say its a total waist but if youre expecting something like La Tortura (which is perfect by the way)because most of them dont have the same rythym and beat.
What I do like is that the music is varied but not hot.
The tracks I liked are the following:
1La pared
2 La tortura
3 uN DIA ESPECIAL
4 nO
5lA TORTURA rEMIX-FOR REGGEATON FAMS
