Information AboutObjection (tango) |
"Objection (Tango)" and "'''Te Aviso, Te Anuncio (Tango)'''" are Latin Pop songs written and composed by the Colombian Pop Star Shakira for her 2001 breakthrough English language Album , '' Laundry Service ''. SONG INFORMATION "Objection" is the first song written by Shakira purely in English. "Te Aviso, Te Anuncio", on the other hand, is sung in Spanish . Both songs share the same rhythm, which is quite similar to the Uruguayan - Argentinian tango " La Cumparsita ". It is uncertain if this tango is sampled in the intro, or is the base of both songs. The English song reached #55 on Billboard 's Hot 100 chart, while the Spanish version reached #16 on Billboard's Hot Latin Tracks chart. Although "Objection" did not live up to the success of Shakira's previous Top 10 singles - " Whenever, Wherever " and " Underneath Your Clothes " - the song became a hit on MTV 's '' TRL '', peaking at #1 and staying on the countdown for 45 days. On the booklet for the album, "next to her cheap silicon I look minimal" is written. The correct spelling would be "next to her cheap ''silicone'' I look minimal". Silicon is a chemical element, while Silicone , what Shakira really meant, is the name of the implant used in Breast Enlargement . The segment of the music video where that line is said has subtitles, and the correct word is used. MUSIC VIDEO The music video opens with Shakira and her ex-lover doing a tango. When the tango stops, he leaves, the music picks up, and Shakira begins dancing. Shakira goes to a club where she finds her ex-lover and his new girlfriend, played by sequence begins in which Shakira pokes holes in the new girlfriend's Breast Implants and knocks her ex-boyfriend through a window into another room. The animated sequence ends and Shakira confronts the lovers but is pushed down onto a glass table. Two Superhero es (one played by Daniel Southworth , best known for playing Eric Meyers in Power Rangers Time Force ) come to her side and, with their help, she knocks out both lovers. The video switches to Shakira performing in a Mechanical Room and reveals that she put the two in a trunk and tied each to a spinning wheel. The wheels accelerate until they come loose and fly away. The video was directed by Dave Meyers . CHARTS |
