'darling it is no joke, this is lycanthropy'

SHAKIRA HA VUELTO! shakira’s back! it’s all about comebacks at the minute it seems and next on the docket is the very bendy shakira with a song about being a she wolf. it is brilliant. end of.

as a quick sidenote i remember seeing a show on mtv where some girl got to recreate one of shakira’s music videos and professed to be her biggest fan. i remember it because the girl was really annoying and despite having a rather plain american accent, insisted on tapping the r in shakira. it was incredibly irritating.

anyway, here is the video. it is fantastic in a very cheesy 1980s way. i adore it.

amazing, right? i love all the ah-oooh’s they’re fantastic. this song also has some of the best lyrics in recent memory.

i’ve been devoting myself to you monday to monday and friday to friday

not getting enough retribution or decent incentives to keep me at it

i’m starting to feel just a little abused like a coffee machine in an office

so i’m gonna go somewhere cozy to get me a lover and tell you about it

sitting across a bar, staring right at her prey

it’s going well so far, she’s gonna get her way

nocturnal creatures are not so prudent

the moon’s my teacher and i’m her student

AMAZING!

lycanthropy = the magical ability to assume the form and characteristics of a wolf.

shakira’s she wolf = bloody brilliant
