Episode 25: Whenever Wherever - Shakira
What would a song sound as if it was written and performed by someone who was a massive star in Latin America but wanted to break into the western market? Sit back, take a deep breath and get ready to dive into the jumbled mess that is Shakira's "Whenever Wherever."
Bio:
"Whenever, Wherever" is a song by Colombian singer-songwriter Shakira for her fifth studio album and English-language debut, Laundry Service. It was released on August 27, 2001, by Epic Records as the lead single from the album. The song was written, composed, and produced by Shakira and Tim Mitchell, with additional songwriting from Gloria Estefan. "Whenever, Wherever" is a mix of Latin music and world beat that is heavily influenced by Andean music. The Spanish version of the song, titled "Suerte" (literally "Luck"), lyrically discusses how fortunate Shakira is to have found her romantic partner.
