Just watching MAD TV, and a singer is on, named Shakira. Can't quite figure her out.
Okay, song's over. Sorry, didn't catch the name of it. Shakira, who is lovely and looks to be 20-something, suffers a tad from the melismatic flatulance of several recent discussions, but her singing style, and the genre of music itself, was hard to classify. It was more than bubblegum pop, and the song she sang changed tempo several times. At times she sounded a bit CW, at others, girl-singer, at other times, kind of pop-rocky. Even her clothing seemed to be a mixed message -- leather halter top and (I swear) what looked like an early k.d. lang cowgirl skirt, green material with lace. I admit I'd not heard of this young woman before tonight, and she held up playing herself in a silly skit -- so anyone know who she is? Just curious, Walt
