I became a Shakira fan after hearing Whenever, Wherever on the radio. I eventually bought Donde Estan Los Ladrones even though I didn't understand a word of Spanish...at the time. I still couldn't get enough, so I bought her MTV Unplugged DVD. The whole performance was fantastic. Shakira's English songs are good, but her Spanish songs are... on another level. The show opens with Octavo Dia, which is one of my favorites from DELL. It has great lyrics and a catchy melody. Si Te Vas and Donde Estan Los Ladrones are high-energy songs with rock flavour. The next song is the popular version of Ciega, Sordomuda, and it's awesome. Inevitable is a beautiful song and features Shakira displaying her guitar skills. Moscas en la Casa has a nice feel to it and is very well done, while Estoy Aqui is updated, sounding funky. Tu is my personal favorite of all the Unplugged songs. It's accompanied by piano and violin and she sings it with so much passion and emotion making it a very beautiful song. Sombra de Ti is another slow song that has a lot of meaning to Shakira. For the last two songs Shakira turns up the energy once more with a spunky version of No Creo and an extended Ojos Asi to finish things off with a bang.

Shakira has the beauty and grace of any supermodel with a voice to match. Her MTV Unplugged appearance showcases these qualities, as well as her exquisite dancing in songs such as the delectable "Ojos AsÃ." Her lyrics are honest and her range profound, making this concert truly one of her best.
Both this DVD and the accompanying CD are highly recommended to fans and admirers alike. It's rare to find a recorded performance as exquisite as this.

This is by far the best music video ever produced. Shakira is an extremely talanted young artist who breaths new life into the Latin music scene. This video inspires the mind too be as creative and outgoing as the artist. Shakira also demonstrates exquisit dance styles that will keep your eyes glued to the television set. The bonus footage provideds even more insight into this artists work. Subtitles also help to make the experience enjoyable for all.

To appreciate all that Shakira is, you MUST see this concert. Having missed it when it aired on television, I only had the live cd to listen to; the DVD is 10 times better. Not only is it in Dolby Digital 5.1 surround, but there is also an option for english subtitles (for people like myself with a very limited Spanish vocabulary) as well as a behind the scenes featurette. The clarity of the sound in dolby digital makes it seem like you're really at the concert. And then, theres the performance. Shakira makes singing look so easy. You can tell that she is a master of her art (even though this concert is 3 years old) and knows how to captivate an audience. My personal favorites are the reworked "Estoy Aqui", "Inevitable", and "Tu", which is the greatest song a person can sing to another human being. Get this cd, turn the lights off, light a candle, and prepare to be amazed.

I have had Shakira Unplugged on bootleg for quite sometime on VHS and now that I see there is a DVD out there I am going crazy. To all of you Shakira fans out there "It's Here!" She finally made it to DVD. What we all have been waiting for.
I do prefer her latin albums rather than her English album for the simple reason that there was a loss of a latin rock like beat. It sounds too newage/pop (which is not bad,just different.) You have all her good stuff on "Shakira-MTV Unplugged". It is sort of a Best of Shakira. You get a piece from her previous two albums.
And duh, this won an Emmy! of course it is good. If you call yourself a SHAKIRA fan, you have this disc in your collection.
