Product description

Planet Patrol ~ Oral Fixation Vol. 2

Amazon.com

The English-language Oral Fixation Vol. 2 finds Shakira reclaiming some of the bite she showcased on 1998's smashing Donde Estan Los Ladrones? The Colombian rock goddess is making up for lost time: this is her second disc of new material in 2005. It's quite a feat, considering the four-year gap since Laundry Service, her scattershot, English-language debut album. Oral Fixation Vol. 2 is more mature and better focused than the spin-cycle pop of that 2001 disc. Kick-off track "How Do You Do" starts with a haunting reading of "The Lord's Prayer" before launching into a risky questioning of faith and religion. Shakira touches on the highs and lows of celebrity on a trio of tracks--the bittersweet "Your Embrace," the guitar-driven "Costume Makes the Clown," and the disco-fied, politically charged "Timor." Selfish men and failed relationships--two oft-mentioned topics of interest--anchor much of Oral Fixation Vol. 2. First single "Don't Bother" is a bitter ode to strength, jealousy, and survival; "Dreams for Plans" is a wistful collage of relationship memories; and Carlos Santana slides a sexy guitar riff under soulful standout track "Illegal." The purple haze of Prince hangs over "Animal City," one of the disc's most inventive moments. It's a free-wheeling melange of rock riffs, electronic accents, mariachi horns and confident vocals. Two songs from Fijacion Oral Vol. 1 make appearances--the somber "Something" and "The Day and the Time," which improves greatly upon its Spanish counterpart. Vol. 1, while at times enjoyable, was a portrait of a gifted artist struggling to keep her footing and retain her confidence. Oral Fixation Vol. 2 finds Shakira embracing the eclectic beauty within. It's a wonderful sound. --Joey Guerra

5.0 out of 5 stars This is some of Shakira's best work.
Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2006

This is a must-have for any Shakira fan. "Costume Makes the Clown" and the politically-charged "Timor" are some of the shining moments on this album, along with "Illegal" and "The Day and the Time." "Something"'s haunting melody and chorus make it a great love song. Shakira touches a lot of her familiar themes in new ways, and although in some respects it diverges from the styles of her other albums, the new directions she goes in work well. And of course, "Hips Don't Lie" is a great dance hit, even if it's a little lyrically light. (I must say that I think that dedicated fans were screwed over royally, since those of us who rushed out to buy it the second the album came out found ourselves just buying it again later when the dualdisc and then the "Hips Don't Lie" versions came out months later - just another way the record companies are out to screw fans). But other than that, the album is a shining success.

5.0 out of 5 stars Arguably her best English Album
Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2014
Verified Purchase
The credibility she failed to obtain in English on her breakthrough album, Laundry Service is certainly not continued on this album. The lyrics are poetic and lucid as she writes about a cheating lover in her rawest rock tune "Don't Bother" and chants questions to God in a Cher like vibrato on "How Do You Do". If those lyrics do not convince you of Shakira's poetic imagery and talent as a song writer, then her criticism of the government and media on her Anti-war ballad "Timor" will. And how can you not love the irresistable " Hips Don't Lie". What you will find is that this album is completely different from American mainstream music and sets her apart from other pop divas like Rihanna or Beyonce for her intelligible lyrics, distinct voice, and ability to fuse all different types of music.

As a relatively new Shakira fan, this was recommended by a friend. I am so pleased I listened & bought it. I have played it so often it's easy to keep hearing her melodies in my head whenever I wish. Shakira truly has a superb instrument in her voice and it shines in this CD. I do not speak Spanish, but there really is no need if you just listen, her ability to project emotion is unbelievable.

Ihave been a creatureot habit from the 60s and early 70s and quit listening to popular music when it got loud and miss-understandable in the 80s and 90s. I accidemtly discovered Katy Perry last fall and not only can i understad every word of her beautiful and unique voice plus backup and staging is fun and fantastic. As to this album, I really like Shakira's voice and love the way she bounces back and forth from perfect spanish and english (American style) plus her lyrics are good and -- again =s I can understand her. I recommend this album.

Oh Shakira, Shakira --- Hips don't lie and neither do my ears when I put this one on.... why else would Wyclef Jean and Rick Rubin want to work with her? OK, OK -- well other than the fact that she is HOT!!! When she sings and pounds out the sounds she make even those of us that don't "habla" understand that talent has no language barriers. This album definitely deserved every award it earned and the only thing that would have made it better was having the video included.

Hi I'm mrs Islander. I've been a Shakira fan for some time, I'm part Spanish, and I understand some Spanish. She makes me move. Her singing and dancing are incredible. This CD is in English and I love it. I also have Shakira CD in Spanish. She is just so talented. Me and hubby listen to Shakira all the time. I can't wait for more Shakira CDs.

Había estado buscando este disco por todos lados y finalmente que llegó, fui el más feliz. Es la obra maestra de Shakira, una joya que no se puede quedar en lo digital. La versión es importada, que lo hace un peso más especial jeje.
