Pies Descalzos

Amazon.com
The title of Shakira's breakthrough 1996 album translates to "naked feet," which somehow captures the combination of playfulness and earnestness that marks the music. Recorded when she was 18, Pies Descalzos finds the Colombian singer-songwriter striving to find her own style. The disc moves through dance pop and dance-hall-lite before landing on a convincing-enough guitar-rock amalgam. It's a likable record, but Shakira seemed to acknowledge its weaknesses when she chose only one of its songs for inclusion on the later (and much superior) MTV Unplugged. --Rickey Wright

Simply Perfect.......2007-06-16

This is the best CD along with Donde Estan Los Ladrones that Shakira has ever produced. Every song is wonderful; there are no filler tracks just plain execptional music. Viva Shakira and Colombia!!!

brilliant early work..........2007-05-11

...of the now international superstar....you don't need to know spanish to feel the sentiments of the songs, fall in love with the work nor admire the talents of this artist.

NACE UNA ESTRELLA..........2007-05-06

este es el disco que marca el inicio de la ERA SHAKIRA en toda america; este album supuso su internacionalizacion (sus dos primeros albumes no lograron popularizarse en el exterior aun) y su rapido ascenso a la cima de su fama; con este album, esta mujercita demostro ser GRANDE ENTRE LOS GRANDES; con sus primaros hitazos como ESTOY AQUI, PIES DESCALZOS, DONDE ESTAS CORAZON, temas romanticos como ANTOLOGIA, TE NECESITO, PIENSO EN TI, y temas de indole social como SE QUIERE SE MATA, incluso un poco de hip hop en UN POCO DE AMOR, QUIERO y blues en TE ESPERO SENTADA; este gran trabajo discografico fue EL PEQUENO GRAN PASO DE UNA PEQUENA GRAN ARTISTA...

fantastic..........2007-03-16

Shakira has a wonderful emotion in this album. Her voice is just a joy to listen to, whether you speak Spanish or not. I loved the mix of various beats in her her music. It's hard to pick a favorite song from this album, but especially love Antologia and un Poco de Amor.

Her 1st CD.......2007-01-11

I think this was her first CD. It came out before she was big in the English community. Me encanta esta CD!

Shakira best picks in 1996!.......2006-08-01

This is the second Shakira CD I ever got and I must say that it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I got this becuase I wanted to see her one step before "Donde Estan Los Ladrones?". Although this may not have the vigor of her second album, it is still something to WOW this artist. Although it is hard to pick favorites with a CD I waited so long to own, I should say that I truly enjoy "Estoy Aqui","Vuelve","Pies Descalzos", and "Se Quiere, Se Mata" - some of which were released as singles. I love the the theme of each each song and the raw emotion with which she sings each. I just wish that she never had the crossover on her first American album, for which she will always be remembered. This was when Shakira was authentic and true to her roots, and it will forever be cherished as one of my favorite Shakira discs.

When listening to song 10 and 11 switch them (piez descalzos).......2006-02-28

When you listen to song 10 it is 11 and vice versa.

Best Album She has Ever Done!.......2006-01-15

Back in the day where Shakira was real and had a unique style, I should know since in Colombia everyone has watched her since day one. I remember the first time I heard this wonderful album... It was like so personal, poetic, philosophical and UNIQUE... At this time Shakira was hardly known, she was not famous at all. But soon in Colombia her style was being recognized. I declare that the most artistic stage in Shakira was with this album. It really set her apart, now as you hear new albums of the modern Shakira.. You are like where is this girl I once had known or at least I thought I knew. Everything was fine even when DONDE ESTA LOS LADRONES came out, after that all her work in my opinion has been worthless, is like she has lost the person she once was, the typical Colombian girl dreamer... I mean she forgot her roots... You can see it in her songs... It's just sad... In Colombia she is remembered for PIES DESCALZOS album.. She is loved for it, now see for yourself and ask for Shakira.. They will say: We love old Shakira, this new one she is pretending to be in the past years, we dont know about and want nothing to do with it. I state that my favorite album of all times in general even including other artists is PIES DESCALZOS, you have to hear it attentively and relate to it, to truly understand it's meaning, that new songs just dont have it.

~ Stephanie ~ OLD SHAKIRA'S FAN, GIRL WE WANT YOU AS REAL AS YOU STARTED, DONT LET YOUR LIFESTYLE CHANGE THE DREAMER, FULL OF HOPE FRIENDLY PERSON YOU ONCE WERE... IT WILL REFLECT IN YOUR SONGS...

La escencia de los comienzos de Shakira...!! .......2005-11-02

Este CD demuestra q la calidad musical no pasa por el presupuesto que se le otorge... Desde Estoy Aqui hasta Se quiere, se mata, pasando por 11 estupendas canciones prevalece el verdadero Rock latino...

1. Estoy Aqui: parece ser un trabalengua pero es muy divertida y las connotaciones vocales nunca dejan de sorprender... es el primer single y llego al #2 en Billboard Hot Latin Tracks en 1996...

2. Antologia: quizas la mejor balada de Shakira hasta el dia de hoy... la letra no parece haber estado hecha por una adolescente de solo 17 años... al cantar "porque todo el tiempo que pase junto a ti dejo tejido su hilo dentro de mi"... realmente conmovedora!...

3. Un Poco de Amor: con una onda reggue, y con simples estrofas en ingles es una cancion q te hara mover... la letra es muy pegadiza!...

4. Quiero: una cancion q trata sobre una chica obsesiva por su amor... "quiero excederme perseguirte pretenderte, quiero amarte noche y dia, quiero gastarme la vida"... comienzan las primeras frases sarcasticas en sus letras!...

5. Te necesito: una hermosa cancion para dedicarle a tu pareja... el sonido es muy calmo y la letra arrasadora!

6. Te espero sentada: siguiendo con la tematica del amor y romantisimo obsesivo, Shakira parece cada vez cortarse mas la venas en sus letras... esta por ejemplo relata a una mujer intuitiva que espera a su pareja por horas, aunque sepa que nunca va a llegar... al final se escuchan unos susurros de shaky...

7. Vuelve: Cancion rockera, con una letra muy inteligente que relata (con sarcasmo e ironia) como queda una mujer cuando desea q su amor regrese... la guitarra electrica es un elemento fundamental en la cancion... mucha potencia!...

8. Pies descalzos, sueños blancos: la cancion mas rock del album y quiza la mejor, cancion de critica social a toda la gente hipocrita y abstracta q no se percata de la realidad y prefiere mirar para otro lado... la cancion mas ironica del album!...

9. Pienso en ti: PURA ACAPELLA... Shakira demuestra su capacidad vocal en una cancion a pura acapella que te dejara sin aliento... al principio parece una cancion religiosa, pero al final conmueve gratamente!...

10. Donde estas Corazon: la primer cancion que se dio a conocer del album... fue incluidas en un CD colombiano en 1996 llamado "Llena tu cabeza de rock" y fue un hecho sin precedentes... tanto que grabo 2 videos clips de esta cancion para exportartla a toda latinoamerica...

11. Se quiere, se mata: la cancion mas controversial del album... quien nunca opino del ABORTO???... Shakira en una mezcla de ironias y realidad nos deja en claro su oposicion al mismo!...

Shakira Rocks!.......2005-10-22

This is my favorite album, not just Shakira's, in general, the only song I would say is not so good is "Pienso En Ti", but i like it too.
Each song is something perfect, the creative and perfectly written lyrics make it a masterpiece.
Song Rating:
1. Estoy Aquí: The first song, I love it, it's outstanding!Couldn't be better! 10/10
2. Antología: It's excellent, her voice is bright and perfect! 10/10
3. Un Poco De Amor: Good song with the participation of another person I personally don't know who is but is a marvelous song! 10/10
4. Quiero: It's way cool, Shakira's style, it's really great!
5. Te Necesito: Really cool! My favorite part: The Chorus, is so catchy and perfect!10/10
6. Te Espero Sentada: It's a good song! It's really cool! It's better 'cause when your listening it you have the expectation that after it comes "Pies Descalzos"!10/10
7. Pies Descalzos: Along with "Se Quiere...Se Mata" my favorite song, specially the cool and fun lyrics and her voice! The last part: "Saludar al vecino, acostarse a una hora..." it's my favorite, to sing it without breathing it's so hard. I love this song so much!
8. Vuelve: Cool song! Love the lyrics! So interesting! The music is sooo cool!
9. Pienso En Ti: It's a nice song (the one I like the least), but it's so slow so it gets boring, but I still hear it! It has the same thing that "Te Espero Sentada", you're waiting for "¿Dónde Estás Corazón?
10. ¿Dónde Estás Corazón?: An amazing song, really fun and has some fast parts like "Pies Descalzos", "Estoy Aquí" and "Se Quiere...Se Mata"(my favorite part of the songs!)and I love it!
11. Se Quiere...Se Mata: Along with "Pies Descalzos", my favorite song! What I specially love is the story, the lyrics, it's an interesting story, funny and a perfect closing song to the perfection that "Pies Descalzos, Sueños Blancos" represents!
First I had the audio cassette (tape) when it got out and I bought the CD when I tragicly lost the tape!
I'm glad I have it now and I never stop listenig to it!
Shakira Rocks!
Shakira Rules!
Shakira's The Best Singer From The Whole World!

Barefoot on the beach.......2001-10-12

Artemio makes no attempt to be anything other than what he is in this album, a barefooted crooner from Veracruz. He has a great but uncultivated vocal range. "Yo no se que pienses tu" is the catchiest number on the album, but his zest for delivering his messages through music is evident throughout. Gentle electric backs up Artemio's acoustic guitar. The album is worth a listen if you yearn to be reminded of a less complex time and world. As a sidebar: This is not the same singer as Artemio Pena.
