Description

🎸 F is for… Fool! Shakira’s only song that starts with F is also one of her most underrated Rockira gems from Laundry Service (Servicio de Lavandería), released on November 13, 2001. Written by Shakira and her longtime drummer Brendan Buckley, it’s raw, self-aware, and full of lyrical metaphors about staying in a relationship where love isn’t equally returned.Cally and Alejandra break down Fool’s pop-rock/folk sound, live performances (Tour of the Mongoose, Today Show, Musique Plus), and why this hidden gem didn’t get the attention it deserves in the English-speaking market. They also explore Shakira’s creative process, lyrical humor, and how songs like this showcase her “rock artist trapped in a pop artist’s body” energy.Además, hablamos de letras favoritas, metáforas profundas, y curiosidades como el éxito de Fool en Brasil y su inclusión en la telenovela O Beijo do Vampiro.Join us on social media (@shakipediapod) and let us know:¿Cuál es tu parte favorita de la canción?Do you think Fool is one of Shakira’s most underrated English tracks?
