Product Description

From Amazon.com

Rock-pop dance queen Shakira from Colombia is back with a sophomore album that pretty much mines the same field as her debut, with predictably similar sounds. "Ciega, Sordamuda" has the same urgent dance beat reminiscent of "Estoy Aquí," the monster club hit from her debut, Pies Descalzos. The singer/songwriter, whose whispery, quavering vocals sound like a cross between Alanis Morrisette and Dolores O'Riordan of the Cranberries, wrote or cowrote all 11 tracks. Surprisingly, considering that noted producer ace Emilio Estefan is at the helm here, there is very little variance here from her debut. The tunes are mostly either rock-edged dance numbers or reflective melancholy ballads; the best include the echoey "Tú" and the meandering "Sombra de Ti." --Ramiro Burr


CD Description

Latin pop innovator Shakira represents the kind of eventuality for which Alanis Morissette, Bob Dylan and Beck are all precedents. Eventually, all parallel lines intersect, or so that particular mathematical theory suggests, and so it is with separate but co-existing styles. In the world of contemporary music, fusion is an inevitability. Thus, DONDE ESTAN LOS LADRONES. This album finds the charismatic songstress combining traditional Latin roots (represented by the occasional acoustic touches) with post-Alanis angry-young-woman sensibilities, Sheryl Crow-esque pop eclecticism and an electrifying rock & roll rhythm. Those expecting polite recreations of Latin styles past will be sorely disappointed, but listeners for whom crossover is the norm will find a wealth of satisfaction in DONDE ESTAN LOS LADRONES, whether or not they understand the words.

5.0 out of 5 stars Poor Jennifer Lopez doesn't have a Latin prayer., 1 Jan 2004
By David H (Kent, England) - See all my reviews
Right. Lets get this straight. This album is bleedin' fantastic. Released less than 6 years ago, it's the kind of pop music you'd kill to see on the radio these days, especially when we're subjected to boring mediocrity like Black Eyed Peas, Justin Timberlake and Christina Aguilera. From the quirky cathiness of "Ciego Sordomuda" and the sweet balladry of "Moscas En La Casa" to the gonzo pop perfection of "Ojos Asi". I can't even begin to tell you just how lively this record is. Shakira's music is eccentric and colourful like Bjork and yet at the same time glossy and accessible like Michael Jackson or Britney Spears. The combination of these two traits results in one of the most pleasurable dance-pop albums I've ever heard. Make no mistake, this is right up there with Madonna's best work. It's just so frustrating how the completely talentless and boring Jennifer Lopez has proved to be a much greater latin crossover success. Are people really that bothered that the lyrics are in Spanish? If they are then it's their loss.

5.0 out of 5 stars Shakira's finest moment by far., 30 Jul 2006
By Mr. T. S. Guy (York, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Listening to this album makes me despair at the timidity of mainstream British radio and music television. By outright refusing to play anything in any other language than English, they have missed out on a real treat.

Shakira may be best known here in the UK for her English language hits "Whenever Wherever", "Underneath Your Clothes", "Hips Don't Lie" etc., but it is when she sings in her native Spanish that she really shines as an artist. The lyrics that frequently sound awkward in English sound poetic in Spanish, and her delivery is generally stronger and more confident.

Dónde Están los Ladrones (Where are the Thieves) is probably Shakira's finest moment yet - I say probably as I haven't heard Pies Descalzos or her impossible-to-find earlier material yet. But it is musically superior and more interesting than either of her English language albums, and it outshines Fijación Oral too.

Highlights of the album include the powerful, guitar-driven ballad "Inevitable", the title track, "No Creo (I Don't Believe)", "Ciega, Sordomuda (Deaf, Dumb and Blind)" and "Moscas En La Casa (Flies in the House)".

This release includes two bonus tracks - Shakira's early hit "Estoy Aquí (I Am Here)" (a slightly different version to that found on her greatest hits), and a remix of the single "Ojos Así (Eyes Like Those)". Although these are a pleasant addition to the album, they do not justify buying it again if you already have the version without bonus tracks, as the remixes are very similar to the original versions.

If you really enjoy this album, it may be worth considering buying Shakira's MTV Unplugged album too - she performs every song from this album with the exception of "Que Vuelvas". The performances on the unplugged album often vary quite widely from the versions here, so it is a fresh take on the same material.

5.0 out of 5 stars dont miss this!, 2 Dec 2006
By Joe (Yorkshire) - See all my reviews
How many supposedly great albums have you spent good money on, from some reviewers recommendation, only to be played a couple of times and left in the rack to act as a graphical illustration of the hype and hollowness of the Uk music scene. How many foreign language albums have you bought for six quid out of curiosity and wore out the lens on your cd player with?
Take a chance on this, I have spent more time listening to this over the last year than I have mainstream radio, even though I dont understand a word (although the same goes for radio). This is captivating and pushes all the right musical buttons from the insistently rocky 'Si te vas' to the soaring melody of 'no creo' through the peerless 'Tu' to the bittersweet beauty of 'sombra de ti' and all the other gems in between. It is such a shame that Shakira gets so little UK airplay singing in English let alone Spanish.
