Volume 2 says hi darling

[The Bling 12,253]

Copy pasting all of that was AWFUL and making some words italics or bold and the tagging and dear God Wish I had done all of these earlier

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR PARTICIPATING It was a lot more fun that I expected it to be

Next Shakira megarate will most likely be She Wolf so stay perchedT please. It will take some time though as I want to take some time off this site to study for my finals

Thank all of you once again see you soon

Don't bother is amazing but can't lift up an album alone to the level of vol.1 

Spoiler

Or maybe it does

Día De Enero (January Day)

I met you on a January day

With the moon upon my nose

And as I saw I could trust you

In your eyes, I got lost

 

Was it my fickle heart?

Was it your sweet touch?

 

Now that we’ve been all around the world

Just like Mutt and Jeff

I seem to have found some scratches

That you got, here and there

No worries though, my crazy love

Will heal them all…

 

I’ll have the world turn all around us

I’ll leave you as if you’d just been born

And things will happen fast

Soon you’ll see how bright the sun truly is

More than anyone else, you deserve happiness

 

[CHORUS:]

You will see

How, piece by piece, your wounds’re going to heal

You will see

How life itself, will set sea and salt apart

 

And even though, you’ve been a stranger

Even to the land that saw you grow

If I ask you, ‘What comes now?’

You’ll always say, ‘What did you say?’

And no matter what, bandoneons will always be your soft spot

 

Even when you seem absent mind,

Slowly taking step after step,

I know what causes you this pain

That’s why I wanted to give this song to you

 

[CHORUS:]

X2

 

@Kandy life: 10 Song of hope, kindness, and love. Perfect for January days 

@Flippy: 10 One of the most beautiful songs on the album. It shows how much you can love someone & try to put them back together after they've been broken and she adds a few cute lines in the lyrics to give it a little playful and hopeful feeling to it. I just love it so much!

Favorite lyrics: "Tú más que nadie mereces ser feliz. Ya vas a ver cómo van sanando poco a poco tus heridas"

@badgirlmeat: 9 lovely song, the lyrics are so cute, but the person the song is about...  . used to be my favorite before but it isn't anymore because i listened a lot to it.

@Texas Joanne: 8 a blissful song. always makes me fee happy and calm. perfect for a walk on the beach. so sweet 

@Salvador Sequea: 7 Día De Enero is so lovely is almost Illegal.mp3 for Shakira to never have sang that song live.

@corvus albus: 6 Interesting premise but lackluster execution

Lower than Lo Imprescindible?

Día Especial (Special Day) [‘The Day And The Time’ in Oral Fixation Vol. 2]

I don’t know if it’s too late for you

I want to challenge my comfort

There’s no use in pretending anymore

 

I don’t know how transient your fault is

I no longer blame you

The clock hands are far ahead now

 

Tears went dry

Storms are quiet now

Beating like the sun

My ageless heart

Will forever wait

 

[CHORUS:]

Today, is a special day

I want to believe in this chance

We took a leap in the dark

And now, I can see again

A light in the dark

 

I’m no longer as confused as I used to

If I don’t build us up, you won’t let me down

And falling’s easier than it seems

 

The world I believed in

Both eternal and fleeting

I’d rather end it

Even if you’d rather hide from me

Your vulnerability

 

[CHORUS:]

 

Beating like the sun

My ageless heart waits

 

[CHORUS:]

 

@badgirlmeat: 10 love her work with Cerati (R.I.P.), both really talented artists working together. definitely in my top two from this album 

@Kandy life: 10 Amazing, amazing track! Listening to it feels like seeing the sun after 10 days of darkness. 

@Flippy: 8 I feel like the spanish version has a lot more of feeling for some reason. I like it a lot and it's one of those songs that I would listen to while I'm on a road trip thinking about the life that could've been with an ex. 

Favorite lyrics: "Ya no estoy tan confusa como ayer, solo la ilusión trae desilusión y es tan fácil de caer"

@Texas Joanne: 6 i love this song, I wouldn’t say its my favorite

@corvus albus: 6 The highlight of the song are the last 90 seconds.

9? Really?
