New Shakira single ft. Wyclef Jean- Hips Dont Lie - Page 2

I don't blame them though. OF2 definitely takes time. I don't know if those who purchased it felt the same way, but for the first few spins, every chorus in each song on OF2 came across as horribly anti-climatic (EXCEPT TIMOR, thats an instant killer). The verses and instruments made an exellent build up, but the chorus comes out rather.. without explosions? I only got over it after around 4 spins. Probably this deterred people from buying it..

Really? I loved Timor too of course, but I also though Illegal and How do You do were beautiful and good singalongs. It's not as good as FO1, but I enjoy it

I got a pic of the making-of of HDL... it looks kinda cool acctually... I still dont know if I like this song or not...

Mad_Cactuar · #23 23rd February 2006, 08:38 PM

The tracks grow on you a lot though.. Like some horrid critical illness. Except it isn't horrid. I thought Illegal would have been the second single... Dreams For Plans, How Do You Do and Costumes Make The Clowns aren't bad too!

Nice piccie! Reminds me of Check On It if only for those curtains. xD I like the song already, been listening to it through her official site..

Yup, that happened to me too, actually both FO1 and OF2 grew on me after a few listens, but FO1 grew a lot more, lol.

FO1 is awesome driving music. You should hear my awesome 'approximate spanish karaoke' where I groove to La Tortura in the car. Tres sexy (not).

Well, this song is nice! It may rise the OF2 sales, although I didn't like it very much, I prefer the other Shakira albums, especially when she sings in spanish =D~

The video is out! Its really nice, very cultural setting and atmosphere. And the dances Shakira does are outrageous and so sexy.

**Corybobory** · #28 8th March 2006, 07:53 PM

I love the video! It way better than the song

I saw this thread bumped and was like YES MC saw it!!!

I quite like it. I think it will do well.

The video's OUTRAGEOUS! Shakira's dancing was amazing, as usual!

I LOVE the original song. I was so addicted to the DD2: havana nights soundtrack. This song is fine.... I prefer the original.

IRIS_intense · #31 17th March 2006, 01:47 PM

I like "Dance like this" 10x than this one..Maybe because im not used to listening to Shakira singing RnB types of songs..

Mad_Cactuar · #32 18th March 2006, 12:38 AM

And the video finally appeared on MTV! The dance she did in the white dress is so sexy!!! And the one with those sequins on her back. Strangely though, the song feels so old as in 1990s. The quality is.. o__O

Sorry for double posting, but I think I should add that Hips Don't Lie can now be downloaded at Shakira's virtual club through a copy of Oral Fixation Vol.2! So get there all of you who purchased the CD, you all deserve the goodies!

*goes there*

EDIT: That's what the site says, but I don't see any Hips Don't Lie up there.. o__O

I haven't been following Shakira news AT ALL, so I just found out about this like 2 weeks ago. I really can't get into Oral Fixation Vol. 2. I absolutely love Vol. 1. Maybe she should stick to Spanish music. What I didn't like was that like two of the songs off it were just English versions of songs from Vol. 1. LAME. Yeah, but I still love Shakira.

cleftjuston · #35 7th April 2006, 07:01 AM

i watched the pv on mtv and thought that this song was way better than don't bother

stardusties · #36 7th April 2006, 07:07 AM

It's cute, but yea...it's not a dancing song...plus it's very repetative, hardly any body to the lyrics =\, the beat's nice though

**Corybobory** · #37 7th April 2006, 08:34 AM

^Not a dancing song? You really think so? I think it'd be good to dance to... it's no La Tortura, but you can still break out the Shaki moves with it... hehehe

I've decided I kind of like this song now. It took a while to grow on me... I think the awesome video helped. It's nowhere NEAR my favourites though

My La Tortura ringtone stays...!!

MsMiyabi · #38 7th April 2006, 12:54 PM

I LOVE THE SONG AND THE VIDEO. I personally think it's better than Don't Bother.

happytoadstool · #39 7th April 2006, 03:49 PM

i got introduced to the song through her recent american Idol perofrmance and I love it so much! Now i want to listen to other shakira albums

i never knew why i didn't buy her previous english album when i fell in love with shakira during her english debut

stardusties · #40 7th April 2006, 04:01 PM

yea La Tortura was awsome x3!
