| SHAKIRA: THE ALBUM 'SHE WOLF' OUT ON 12th OCTOBER | ||||
|
 The demand for International superstar Shakira's single ‘She-Wolf’ is so great, that a copy- cat version has found its way into the charts 2 weeks before its release date. Therefore, in an unheard of move, the single is being brought forward to today, September 11th! Shakira will perform it exclusively on the 'Jonathan Ross show' on September 25th. Shakira wrote and produced She-Wolf with John Hill (Santogold) and penned the, as usual, quirky lyrics. She weaves a mischievous tale of a metaphorical she-wolf in the distinctively dance - fusion style that fans have come to expect. The inventively sexy video is directed by Jake Nava and features the metamorphosis of a woman told through her unique dance techniques. ‘She-Wolf’ boasts the infectious and energizing sound that made Shakira a household name, with a more dancey/ electronic beat. The song has an organic disco feel with a chorus, "There's a she-wolf in the closet, open up and set it free, there's a she wolf in the closet, let it out so it can breathe." At the start, an ominous fanfare through a vocoder hooks the listener "there's a she wolf in disguise, coming out, coming out, coming out." Then a vibrant string section builds to a final crescendo at the end of the song. The album features a predominantly English track list with a follow up album of new and unique repertoire in Spanish to come in 2010. Though most tracks on the upcoming album will be in English, Shakira chose to service the Spanish version of the first single, Loba on June 29th, 2009, two weeks before the English single is launched. Loba will be made available globally in recognition of Shakira's longstanding fan base and unique bi-lingual appeal. Shakira boasts a string of chart-topping hits in both English and Spanish and sales of over 50 million records. Her last project, Oral Fixation Volumes 1&2, has sold in excess of 8 million albums worldwide with the singles La Tortura and Hips Don't Lie having earned over 10 million digital downloads. |

The sole purpose of Student Bodiez is to provide a true voice for students and young people. As universities and colleges are institutes that are solely focused on educational attainment and individual progression into the world of careers, education can become daunting and challenging. The opportunity to create an avenue of interaction and a channel of self exposure for students cannot exactly be claimed as a ground breaking idea but rather a perquisite which for many years has been ignored.
