The tour of the Mongoose was Shakira's first super production, it was the first time she performed in Europe, and her first time in most of North America. When the tour arrived at Latin America people were impressed with the stage, lighting, and Shakira's performance. It was the first time a latin woman did something like that... A spectacular show! 💖
@@janesbriggs4406 selena never was a star in Europe...just US and part of latin america...probabky if she'd had more time. But her music wasn't so international as shakira's
She used to belly dance as a kid. There is a video of her when she was younger in a belly dance competition. She definitely uses her 2 heritages to perfection. Colombian and Lebanese.
Felicidades por ésta reacción , lo haces muy bien, sabes de lo que hablas y explicas todo muy bien detallado sobre cada cosa de shakira, todo lo que yo sentí y vi en el video lo explicaste muy bien , excelente reación
Glad you liked this one! One of Shakira’s musical trademarks is bringing in Middle Eastern flavors to many of her songs, but Ojos Así is definitely her ultimate tribute to her half-Lebanese heritage, and it even features some Arabic lyrics (the chanting you referred to). To address some of your other points and questions, and share some other facts: 1. This song was actually the first time she brought her now-signature bellydancing into her career. She was very rock-focused before this song, but ultimately, Ojos Así in 1999 would be foreshadowing for her bellydance-focused crossover with Whenever, Wherever in 2001. This performance was from 2003, the opening number of her first world tour after her crossover success. 2. If you check out the music video for the song from 1999, you’ll hear the “Single Version”, which is a bit more electronic than the actual album version from 1998 (which is a bit heavier on the Middle Eastern influence, but still more electronic than the live version you just saw). That said, as you noticed, the live version takes the song’s Middle Eastern vibes to a whole other (and more organic) level. The 2006 tour version even starts with a classic Egyptian song as an intro. 3. I’m not sure what you were hearing that you thought was a synth, particularly during the dance break. But the string instrument was indeed a violin, as you noticed (a very popular instrument in Middle Eastern music, used in a very distinct way), and I believe the other instrument was a mandolin of some kind (giving a sound similar to an oud, but not exact). I’m basically an expert about this song (and Shakira’s music in general, but Ojos Así on another level), so let me know if you have any questions!
This performance is actually from “The Tour of the Mongoose” / the snake is actually a symbolism, mongooses are known to attack Cobras and kill them. I believe Shakira just wanted to portray her take on “el Bien y el Mal”
Correction... the mongoose tour was an amazing production, starts backwards. The cobra was spitting her out..Shakira was the mongoose on the show. Explained towards the end of the concert on a video montage if I remember correctly. But yes good vs. evil
Awesome! I look forward to more reactions on Shakira live performances. She’s such an intriguing artist since she seems underrated in the English market, but a juggernaut in almost every other market.
What I just can't believe about her (in a good way) is her control with her breathing. Those dance moves look like it would make someone be short of breath and yet when she starts singing and dancing at the same time, you could barely hear her gasping for air.
The oral fixation tour has great sound productions there! You should give it a look !! Shakira is such a living legend for all Latin community!! Long live to the Latin queen of music!!!
I love how you described the whole video in details of course is SHAKIRA OUR GODDESS QUEEN LATINA shes perfection in person and please react to more videos of her
This performance belongs to The Mangoose Tour, that's why a big snake (a cobra) appears on the stage. Simbolicly represents that small town girl latina Shakira "eating" the monster showbiz world through her music and her talent.
Isso não é world music. Isso é música com influência árabe!!!! E é ma-ra-vi-lho-so. Aliás, existe isso de world music, ou é só uma definição fácil para estadunidense?
hello dereck,I think your information about gloria and emilio is grong,they didnt have anything to do with this song and album,the albun was produced by shakira,and fernando ochoa.emilio and gloria, were the producer with shakira only of the song TU.
Emilio was the producer of the album. He and Shakira are both half Lebanese, so this song was important to both of them. Gloria wasn’t involved, though she did translate the lyrics for the English version.
omg your channel is way to awesome i love the variety you give to us tk you so much !! *Shakira-La Tortura ft Alejandro Live* is legendary live performance tcheck it out 🥰
I’m a HUGE 100% fan of Shakira and I noticed your did 2 cuts of the song. I was gonna give you a thumbs down but not, I’ll give you thumbs up. Next time don’t cut shakiras video please.! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

What about Selena Quintanilla ? (1971-1995) ?
Right...I was there

I know it is quite randomly asking but do anybody know of a good place to watch new movies online?
@Tomas Abram I use Flixzone. Just search on google for it =)
Shakira's father's family is from Lebanon so that's why she seems such a natural to an Arab groove! جميلة
Look ojos ASI PARIS PARRI OU LONDON ou MARROCO 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ SCOTLAND VERY 🤷🏻♀️ BEST... IT S OLD 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Ready for the good Times live & off the record
I was about to recomend that!!!
Ufff una joya

No need for back up dancers with her most of the time because she is so hypnotizing and people can't take their eyes off of her. She is incredible!
She used to belly dance as a kid. There is a video of her when she was younger in a belly dance competition. She definitely uses her 2 heritages to perfection. Colombian and Lebanese.
Shakira es pura sensualidad.
Nobody can do what Shakira does. Truly unique & original. Thats why she's my favorite.
una Voz que impresiona una fansh y planeta

I think this is one of her most produced performances. Shakira doesn't need too much too impress. She is the main attraction

@@rpvee the producers of the album were,shakira,fernando ochoa,javier garza and emilio was the executive producer.
@@everjvn Regardless, he was certainly directly involved in the production.
