The Sunday Swoon
Shakira.
[p.s. doing my usual websiting today because it's the only free time I have all week to really sit and read my fave blogs in detail when I stopped over at Pictures & Conversations, reader Paul's fabulous music blog, and listened to the Colombian singer's new song "She-Wolf" or "Loba" in Spanish. Now I was surprised by the pop disco elements at first but after a few dozen spins, I'm loving the song and all the new themes, anticipating the new album, and being reminded again that Shakira isn't a wolf... but a stone fox!]
[p.s.s. the song's 8,000 times better in Spanish.]
[p.s.s.s. oh, and get ready, but later this week those Spanish skills will come in handy as we talk Spanish music! Noticias at eleven!]

Not only is the song hot as Hades, but that cover art is frakkin' sexy as all get out. I'm not a huge fan of the "woman behind bars" look but that leotard and heels combo is to die for and her bum and hair look amazing. The pic you choose is pretty gorge also, nothing hotter than thigh-high boots.
Did anyone else notice the opening couple of beats are the same as the opening of Daft Punk's "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger"? I love the song in Spanish, I also think her Spanish launguage "La Totura" is her best single ever.
I know Paul! And I didn't notice what you say about "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" but now that I listen again (my 3,768th time), I think you're on to something!
And while I'm glad she tries, she could totally only sing in Spanish and I would love it!
