Será Será de Shakira


Today’s video, by popular demand is Shakira Hips Don’t Lie, although in Spanish the song is called Será Será.

Shakira was born in 1977 (so she’s now 41) in Barranquilla, a city located on the northern Caribbean coast of Colombia. Her paternal grandparents emigrated from Lebanon to New York, where her father was born. He was taken to Colombia, aged 5.

The name Shakira is Arabic and translates as "grateful". From her mother, she has Spanish and Italian ancestry.

Her full name is Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll and she rose to prominence in Latin America with her major-label debut, Pies Descalzos (Barefoot) in 1996, and her fourth album, Dónde Están los Ladrones? (Where are the Thieves) in 1998. By 2001, she was a major name in Latin America and had sold over 10 million albums.

Shakira entered the English-language market with her fifth album, Laundry Service in 2001. Its lead single, "Whenever, Wherever", became one of the most successful singles of 2002. Her success in English continued with her sixth and seventh albums in 2005, the latter of which spawned the best selling single of the Noughties, "Hips Don't Lie".

Her official song for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)", became the biggest-selling World Cup song of all time with 10 million downloads. With over 1.8 billion views, it is one of the most viewed music videos on YouTube.

She has four of the 20 top-selling hits of the 2000s, more than any other artist. 

Shakira served as a coach on the American version of The Voice in 2013 and 2014. She has received numerous awards, including five MTV Video Music Awards, three Grammies, 13 Latin Grammies, seven Billboard Music Awards and 39 Billboard Latin Music Awards. She has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and had sold over 125 million records worldwide as of 2012 (over 70 million albums sold), making her the best-selling South American singer of all time.

Her partner is Gerard Piqué is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Barcelona and the Spain national team. They have been together for eight years and have two sons. There are constant rumours of a split, especially in the Mail Online.

Shakira performs charity work through her Pies Descalzos Foundation and, in 2011, she was appointed by US President Barack Obama to his Advisory Commission on Educational Excellence for Hispanics. From 2012 to 2015, she was listed among world's top 100 most powerful women in the world by Forbes. In 2017, she was the only artist listed as one of the world's greatest leaders by Fortune, ranked at 27th.

So let’s watch the video. This video does contain strong images of a sexual nature, do if you´re offended by such things I suggest you listen to the music and read the lyrics. I did find the lyrics quite hard to translate and have shied away from some of the sexual innuendo. I’ll leave you to decide if I should have been more explicit.


Serà, Serà


Yo no sabia que ella bailaba así, (bailaba así)
aquella noche yo me enloquecí (enloquecí)
como se llama, si, bonita, si, mi casa, su casa.
Shakira, Shakira

Tu sabes que palabra usar para hacerme suspirar
no internes intento ya va llegando el momento
Será será que lo que nunca fue es para hacerse hoy
y sientes y siento mira si sigue así baby es perfecto.

Amor yo no me canso de verte
y decirte lo que siento,
en mis brazos yo quiero tenerte,
y que sientas lo que siento.
Cuando te veo caminar no me puedo controlar,
amor te mueves como el viento,
solo quisiera bailar ser el dueño de tu corazón y vete ver el tiempo.

Yo no sabia que ella bailaba así (bailaba así)
aquélla noche yo me enloquecí (enloquecí)
como se llama, si, bonita, si mi casa, su casa
Shakira, Shakira

Tu sabes que palabra usar para hacerme suspirar
no internes intento ya va llegando el momento.
Será será que lo que nunca fue es para hacerse hoy
y sientes y siento mira si sigue así baby es perfecto.

Hay lo que será será y lo que nunca fue es para que sea ya.
Me buscas te encuentro mira si sigue así baby es perfecto.

Amor a hora que empiezas a verme de esa forma animal,
ya no se lo que pienses hacerme si esta bien o esta mal.
Mi voluntad se hecho a perder no hay ciego peor que el
que no quiere ver.
Si lo que hago con las manos lo deshago con los pies,
lo que hay es lo que ves.

Baila en la calle de noche
Baila en la calle de día
Baila en la calle de noche
Baila en la calle de día

Yo no sabia que ella bailaba así (bailaba así)
aquella noche yo me enloquecí (enloquecí) como se llama,
si, bonita, si, mi casa, su casa
Shakira, Shakira

Tu sabes que palabra usar para hacerme suspirar
no internes intento ya va llegando el momento.

Señorita, feel the conga mueve tu cintura como toda Colombia

(Yeah, oh, yeah
Sing it, sing it)

Mira en barranquilla se baila así, say it !
En barranquilla se baila así

Yeah, she’s so sexy, yeah you my fantasy
Refugee get back with the Fugees
From a third-world country
I go back like with ?? cream
For humpty hump
We need a whole club, Jay-Z
Nobody see I ain’t what I watch
The Colombian’s a hitch
I ain’t guilty, it’s a musical transaction
Boo-boop-so-boop, no more dooby snack groups
Refugees run the scenes ‘cause we own our own booths

Será será que lo que nunca fue es para hacerse hoy
y sientes y siento mira si sigue así baby es perfecto.

Hay lo que será será que lo que nunca fue es para que sea ya,
me buscas te encuentro, tu sigue así baby es perfecto

Will be will be

I did not know that she danced like that, (she danced like that)
That night I went crazy (I went crazy)
what's your name, yes, pretty, yes, my house, your house.
Shakira, Shakira

You know what word to use to make me sigh
no intent, the moment is coming
It will be that what never was is to be done today
and you feel and I feel, look if it continues like this, baby it’s perfect.

Love I do not get tired of seeing you
and tell you what I feel,
in my arms I want to have you,
and that you feel (imperative) what I feel.
When I see you walking, I cannot control myself,
love you move like the wind,
I just want to dance to be the owner of your heart and go see the time.

I did not know that she danced like that (she danced like that)
That night I went crazy (I went crazy)
What's your name, yes, pretty, if my house, your house
Shakira, Shakira

You know what word to use to make me sigh
I'm not trying, the moment is coming.
It will be that what never was is to be done today
and you feel and feel look if it continues like this baby is perfect.

There is what will be and what never was is for it to be already.
You look for me I find you look if it continues so baby is perfect.

Love at the time that you begin to see me in that animal form,
I no longer know what you think to do to me if it is right or wrong.
My will is lost, there is no blind worse than he
who does not want to see
If what I do with my hands I undo it with my feet,
What you see is what you see.

dance in the street at night
Dance on the street by day
dance in the street at night
Dance on the street by day

I did not know that she danced like that (she danced like that)
that night I went crazy (crazy) as it is called,
yes, pretty, yes, my house, your house
Shakira, Shakira

You know what word to use to make me sigh
I'm not trying, the moment is coming.

Miss, feel the conga move your waist like all Colombia

(Yeah, oh, yeah
Sing it, sing it)

Look at Barranquilla, dance like that, say it!
In Barranquilla they dance like this
