Shakira at her finest Oct 07, 2006
Im so Passionate about this album. I have such respect and love for the album that its hard to even begin putting things together for this review. The funny thing is that i had listened to Pies descalzos (Shakira's 1st "real" debut album) as a teenager and grew to love the songs it offered. I will never forget the day my sister brought this "Mtv Unplugged" home after a friend from her work allowed her to borrow it. My sister simply dismissed the album as something "out of her taste." I however picked up the album and gave it a listen. I must say that at first, i wasn't listening to all the songs besides Ojos Asi, Donde Estan los Ladrones, and Ciega Sordomuda. "up-tempo beats" I wasn't interested in the ballads so i would instantly skip right threw them. It wasn't until tragedy struck my life that i found myself listening to all the songs coming off the album. I was blown away by the beauty, the raw emotion and energy the Songs fed my aching soul. I was in a very unhappy time in my life and nothing ever made me happy. As odd or even creepy as this may sound, the only thing that helped me forget about the worries and misfortanes of life was this album, "MTV Unplugged: Shakira"
The songs mainly speak of love, hardships and betrayal but some of the songs also indulge into give-and-take politicaly-themed articulation. Octavo dia is my favorite song ever and i can say that with sincerity since it talks about issues pertaining to everyday life.

cant believe some people give this 1 star Jun 14, 2005
this was even included on Rolling Stones as one of the best performances by a female ever....and yes its in spanish!
This is next to Donde estan los ladrones? and Fijacion Oral when it comes to best Shakira CD
She even won a Grammy for this.

 Not Her Best Apr 05, 2005
I am a huge fan of Shakira, but I have to say this album isn't her greatest by far. The only songs on here that sound good are Octavo Dia,Moscas en la casa,Donde estan los ladrones,No creo and Ojos asi. The majority of the other songs aren't sung very well, and are somewhat incoherent because of backup singers and Shakiras weird way of singing on this album,like in Estoy Aqui on this album.

This is NOT a copy Mar 06, 2005
Those saying that this is a copy of DELD are wrong. This is the best of Shakira's songs at the time of making. The purpose of this CD was not to produce a greatest hits album, but to show Shakira's varied style of singing and songwriting.
I found a lot of these songs to be an improvement on the studio versions (espically the slow numbers).
Buy this if you liked Shakira on tour, or want to hear some variety in style. Here's a little tip; the more you listen to it the more it grows on you
