Shakira Writing Next Album

Live DVD/CD package due at the end of the month

March 11, 2004 12:00 AM ET

Shakira is writing songs for her next album, the follow-up to 2001's English-language breakthrough Laundry Service. An October or November release is being targeted for the new set of songs.

In the meantime, the Colombian superstar is offering Live and Off the Record on March 30th, an audio/visual documentation of last year's Tour of the Mongoose to tide fans over. The set will be packaged as a two-and-a-half-hour DVD with a ten-song bonus CD. The DVD consists of ninety minutes of Mongoose material, with tracks dating back to her 1996 debut Pies Descalzos ("Estoy Aqui"). Laundry Service and its predecessor, 1998's Donde Estan los Ladrones?, are best represented with eight and five songs on the DVD, respectively. Both the DVD and CD include Shakira's previously unreleased cover of AC/DC's "Back in Black."

The DVD will also include behind-the-scenes material from tour stops including Paris, London, Madrid, New York, Mexico and Bogota.

“Youth Knows No Pain”

Lykke Li | 2011

“Like on 'Youth Knows No Pain' — we are the ones that should demonstrate, because we can take it,” Likke Li said. “We can pierce ourselves, take Ecstasy, dance all night and still go to work at our McDonald's jobs.” Despite the hedonistic sentiment in the song, the Swedish singer also admitted in hindsight her youth had repercussions. “I remember when I was 18-19 and feeling that I know it all,” Li said. “I always feel that I know it all. But that song is about realizing you don’t, and reflecting, ‘Boy, if I only knew what would follow.’”
