Teletubby 149,978 Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 About "Don't Wait Up" "This song is a song that I've been waiting to write and have for a long time. This is actually heaven-sent. I feel that this, it was meant to be" Shakira said during a interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1. "It has been living inside of me in some sort of metaphysical way, and it just sort of materialized. But it's been there for a while. I've been looking for the song. I wanted a house song and this song has taken me through so many roads and it has taken me on an adventure, unexpected places" About music video: "It has been a super creative journey that has, I think, made me grow professionally and creatively and artistically." "It was a lot of work. I spent two months preparing this video, finding the right director, talking to him every day on my WhatsApp, every minute of the day. And we were just brainstorming the whole time." "I made sure that the water wasn't cold because I'm such a chicken for cold water unless I have a full wetsuit. But the director was like, you're not going with a full wet suit on this video. You're going to be in a bathing suit, in a bikini. I'm like, no, no, no, I'm not going to be in a bikini, surfing in a bikini," "I'm not that fit. I need to wear something to hold everything in properly, but okay, I'll give you some legs. I said that." "So we kind of compromised. He was very confused because he's seen me my entire life exposing my midriff, but this time, I was like, no, no, no. I'm going to be on a board. I want to be comfortable, I don't want to be sucking anything in." . source She also said: "Last night I was working in the studio with Poo Bear and Sasha Sirota, who are also amazing creators and amazing people."

NewUsername 11,424 Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 I wonder if this is just artist promo talk or if she really thinks this (which is good for her, then, but...), because even though it is an ear worm, it's definitely a bit 'bland' compared to her earlier work.
