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, ILaundry Service/I, was released in 2001. The Spanish IDonde Estan Los Ladrones/I came three years before that. IFijacion Oral, Volumen 1/I 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. I--Joey Guerra/I

 Shakira - produccion latina - musicos latinos December 11, 2008
Marcos (Japan)
Yo estaba esperando otra cosa. Despues que anuncio que planeaba dos discos, uno en espan~ol, y el otro en ingles, yo esperaba que el disco en espan~ol hubiese traido unas gran influencias latinas. Estuve muy equivocado. br / br /Con excepcion de "La Tortura", en ritmo de reggaeton, suena mas como la musica de artistas como Coldplay, pero cantado por Shakira. Y hablando de Coldplay, se copiaron de su tocar de piano. Si el nombre del productor, Rick Rubin, y los musicos que no me acuerdo sus nombre ahora, no suenan latinos, menos latino sono su estilo de tocar la musica. br / br /Obviamente le gusto a mucha gente le gusto y estoy en la minoria. Pero si crees que escucharas un poco de instrumentacion latina como la trompeta Mejicana de "Ciego Sordomuda" o los instrumentos de viento andinos en "Suerte" te equivocaras.
 Easily her best work; an artistic triumph May 5, 2008
J. D. Seagraves (Michigan)
This album is simply amazing. After the commercial success of her first U.S. release, LAUNDRY, Shakira went back to her artistic roots with this all-Spanish album. The musicality, lyricism, and tone of this CD puts all of her prior and later work to shame. Even the English VOL. 2, a great album in its own right, pales in comparison. Shortly after its release, "Hips Don't Lie" (which is not included on the original version of VOL. 2) became a big hit. I don't assume Shakira will ever return to this sort of artistic work, preferring to make millions making mindless pop songs, and who can blame her? At least she gave the world this one resounding triumph of sound.
Beautiful Music! September 29, 2007
M. Usic
This CD is an outpouring of Shakira's more mature, thoughtful and emotional side. The CD is full of songs that are more mellow than "Grandes Exitos." br / br /Overall, the all-Spanish CD is excellent and offers a lovely, toned-down version of Shakira's vocal style.
My Shakira Fijacion. September 22, 2007
G. Merritt (Boulder, CO)
"The song's not a hit until makes my hips move!"--Shakira br / br /Okay, I confess. I have a Shakira Fijacion. She's beautiful, she writes her own music, she can dance, she's multilingual, I've read she's very smart and, oh yeah, she can sing. I really like this cd. Although "Hips Don't Lie" may rank as her biggest hit single, Fijacion Oral Vol. 1 remains my favorite Shakira cd to date. Produced by studio genius Rick Rubin, Fijacion Oral Vol. 1 is the Columbian superstar's first all-Spanish album since 1998's Donde Estan los Ladrones?. Songs include: br / br /1. En Tus Pupilas br /2. La Pared br /3. La Tortura br /4. Obtener Un Si br /5. Dia Especial br /6. Escondite Ingles br /7. No br /8. Las De La Intuicion br /9. Dia De Enero br /10. Lo Imprescindible br /11. La Pared (Version Acustica) br /12. La Tortura (Shaketon Remix) br / br /From track one to twelve, backed by strong rhythms and tight musical arrangements, Shakira's sensual and seductive vocals are in fine form. The only thing better than listening to this cd is watching Shakira perform these songs live on Shakira: Live Off The Record. But I should warn you. Once you see Shakira perform, it's hard to look away. br / br /G. Merritt
FIJACION DE LA SHAKIROMANIA May 6, 2007
C. Bellegarrigue (El Salvador)
Otro gran trabajo de una poderosa artista; con este disco Shakira incursiona en nuevas facetas de su carrera, como el cantar en duetos con Alejandro Sanz (otro grande) en LA TORTURA, y hacerse acompanar de Gustavo Ceratti (lider de Soda Estereo) en DIA ESPECIAL; tambien incursiona nuevos generos como la samba en OBTENER UN SI (como si fuera una melodia tipica de sergio Mendes y Brazil'66) y el reggaeton en LA TORTURA; siempre sorprendiendonos con impactantes baladas como TUS PUPILAS y LA PARED y deleitandonos con melodias romanticas como DIA DE ENERO (la cual se la dedica a su novio) y baladas rock como la tremenda NO (que gran balada!!), Shakira no deja de sorprendernos con excelentes discos !!!
