Louis Tomlinson makes history by appearing before more than 70,000 people in CDMX

Mateo Pinzón | June 2, 2024

On June 1, Louis Tomlinson, former vocalist of the iconic band One Direction, performed at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez in Mexico City, consolidating a transcendental moment in his career as a soloist. Before an audience of more than 70,000 people, Tomlinson offered a show full of energy, emotion and nostalgia.

The concert began with the powerful song “The Greatest,” setting the tone for the night with its vibrant energy. The enthusiastic attendees welcomed Tomlinson with cheers and applause, creating an electrifying atmosphere from the first moment.

Throughout the night, Louis Tomlinson took fans on a musical journey that encompassed both his solo material and One Direction hits. One of the most emotional moments was when he performed “Night Changes,” transporting those present to the golden days of the famous boy band. Nostalgia took over the venue as the voices of thousands of fans joined together to sing in unison.

A highlight of the concert was Tomlinson's tribute to the Arctic Monkeys with his performance of the “505” cover. This version demonstrated not only his versatility as an artist, but also his ability to honor the bands that have influenced his musical career.

In a significant moment of the show, Tomlinson took time to thank his Mexican audience with sincere words:

“I don't care if you're not here tonight, I don't care if you've never been on the tour, if you support me, I love you. So thank you, thank you, thank you.”

This gesture was received with an enormous wave of affection and gratitude from fans, further strengthening the bond between the artist and his audience.

The concert closed with “Silver Tongues,” leaving the crowd in a state of euphoria. However, before this electrifying finale, Tomlinson gave his fans one last dose of nostalgia with “Where Do Broken Hearts Go”, another gem from his time in One Direction.

Louis Tomlinson will continue his tour of Mexico with upcoming performances in Querétaro and Guadalajara. Additionally, on June 8, he will hold his own festival, “The Away From Home Festival,” at Hacienda Susulá, located in Mérida, Yucatán, with the participation of artists such as Kevin Kaarl and Dylan, among others.

Can I have from the OC's background asks for Eva please:

🧸 - Childhood friends

🐾 - Pets

🗑️ - "It's complicated"

thanks Lily 🖤🖤

🧸- her ex, Antonia, a granddaughter of Mexican President Benito Juarez, several tennat children in her grandparents Hacienda, President Venustiano Carranza's daughter Julia and her brothers. Several foreign dignitaries children, and her cousins, Ignacio (formerly named Israel but changed it to call him Nacho) and Santiago 'Tiago' Rosales.

she had a lot of friends, but Antonia and her cousins are what could be considered her best friends.

🐾-

Shelby!Eva has a long hair chihuaha named Xoco (Choco) she and her kids adopted in Mexico City post s6, Charlie has two cats named Amanda (after his first teacher) and Jessie(after Jessie Eden) in s5 and she has a black Akhal Teke horse named Van Helsing that hates Tommy specifically. Eva kinda names all of the horses Tommy buys in the series, Grace’s Secrete is called Cassandra(for Cassandra of Troy who Eva refrenced when she and Tommy first met) and Dangerous didn’t get a mention because i cut may from the s4 arc.

Changretta!Eva is supposed to have a pet snake named Petra but i never wrote her in the fic and Nelson!Eva has a golden Irish Setter named Lola and eventually a conure named Pancho like they do in the hunger games au.

🗑- Eva tried to drug Polly to keep her from confessing to her priest who Eva didn't tell her was Hughes' Spy only for Polly to do that becauseof the effect the sedative had on her.

While she will feel bad for doing things like that, if her life and her kids are on the line, she won't hesitate to kill a friend or betray them to keep her family safe. Which is why she didn't truly fight her uncle for green-lighting Polly's murderer in s5 because Michael truly did put a hit on tommy and eva

Soo one day im thinking about writing a book (not really a serious idea, but i’d really enjoy it !) and since i particularly enjoyed your way of writing ABM, i wanted to ask for advice… also i dont have a litterature degree (yet..?idk if i’ll get one), so the advice im asking for is very much beginner level

Also the book i’d like to write is sort of utopian/futuristic, but also entails graphic descriptions of a painful past…like i have a whole lore in my head and i have 0 idea how to turn that into a book..

Hello! I'm happy you like how ABM is written! I'm not sure how old you are (and I do think age is relevant to the advice I can give here), so I'm going to hopefully assume you're 18-19.

First, you don't need a literature, english, or creative writing degree to write. They're only really helpful if you want a career in academia, teaching, or you're planning to get an MFA, which I don't recommend unless you want to write literary books. Don't get an MFA if you want to write genre books — fantasy, sci-fi, romance, etc.. This said, I do highly recommend taking a writing class or two and working really hard in them, as opposed to taking a whole bunch. Take criticism and edit, not to make all the critiquers happy but to understand how your work comes off to people.

For general practice in plotting, by the way, I really recommend reading short stories and writing your own. Read books and watch movies and try to understand how narrative beats happen, how tension rises.

For me, when I have a lot of lore and ideas in my head, I try to put that all aside to decide on the protagonist and then summarize the plot into a single pitch sentence. For ex., my story Midnight Invitation is about a young man in early 1900s Mexico who works in a hacienda, struggling to love his father who works there with him, and is putting up with the landowner's sickly son, who is fixated on him sexually, and it's about colonialism, and de-indigenizing; BUT, I've summarized that to just "the son of a gardener visits the son of a landowner."

Another example: Game of Thrones / ASOIAF is an insanely complicated series, but it's central idea is "bloody political power struggle in a fantasy world."

I don't remember who taught me to do this, but this is both good for explaining your story to people and understanding the purpose of your story. You should give your story a purpose beyond "fun to imagine," not because that gives it more "value" or anything, but because it'll guide you in plotting and theme-ing.

You probably want to dump all your ideas/lore in a doc and take from them while you outline a story based off your central pitch/idea. There's some stuff you won't be able to include in the end, but it's okay. Outline and learn consistency. Set word count goals for the week goals and try to meet them. Write until the end. A finished, terrible draft is better than a perfect draft that you will never finish.

Before anything, be patient with yourself and learn to love the process of writing itself, instead of loving your idea of the finished product. This is good for both your book and your mental health. trust me.

Juan Dalmau derrumba los mitos de la soberanía mientras comparte lecciones de vida en La Maestría

Y en mi casa, mis padres defendían arduamente la estadidad. Recuerdo que los debates siempre giraban hacia el progreso económico que trajo nuestra afiliación con la nación norteamericana. Y cómo el resto de los países soberanos vivían en peores condiciones que acá.

Hoy día esa retórica se ha quedado igual. De adulto, la inmensa mayoría de mi círculo cercano apoya la estadidad. Pero hoy día es mas por el tema de seguridad. Es un “hedge” ante la incertidumbre gubernamental.

Sin embargo, cómo financiero siento que los datos actuales son difíciles de ignorar. Según los últimos estados financieros emitidos por Hacienda, un 43% de los ingresos del país vienen de transferencias federales (alrededor de $10b). La moneda del dólar, la opcionalidad de libre transito y de laborar en el país mas productivo y rico del mundo (Estados Unidos) ofrecido por la ciudadanía americana todavía apuntaba a que no contamos la infraestructura económica para enfrentar la soberanía de manera inmediata.

Y ahí surgió la oportunidad de cuestionar estos temas con la autoridad puertorriqueña mas prominente de la soberanía— Lcdo. Juan Dalmau

Estoy casi seguro que sabes quién es. Ex-candidato a la gobernació por el Partido Independentista Puertorriqueño (PIP), pero quizás no sabías que tiene maestría en @harvardlaw. O que NO viene de familia indepentista. O que casi pierde un hijo a raíz del cáncer. Pero si debes saber por seguro que se desvive por el tema de la descolonización de PR. Tema que en la actualidad está tomando vuelo en la esfera federal, reportado así por el New Yorl Times

Por eso este episodio de la maestria con Raul Palacios cae como anillo al dedo. Es la clase que quisiera haber tenido de jovencito. Para orientar y educar de un tema que no tiene visibilidad. El clásico debate: soberanía vs estadidad.

𝑙𝑎 hacienda de LALO SALAMANCA. [ 5 THINGS THAT LALO PERSONALLY REQUESTED TO HAVE IN HIS HOME & ARE THUS HUGE INDICATORS OF HIS PERSONALITY. ]

as a sign of gratitude and respect, lalo was gifted a personalised hacienda in chihuahua by his uncle don hector & partner don eladio. aside from his maid, gardener and other house members, lalo put in a request for the following five items to make his hacienda a home.

𝑢𝑛𝑜,⠀THE OUTDOOR BASIN.

dirty hands have no place in lalo's home. when returning home, lalo washes the blood & grit from his hands using this basin. he specifically requested a basalt basin, a stone which held great significance in ancient aztec culture. historians claim that basalt has an ‘inherent stoniness and roughness that long seemed appropriate to its subject matter, particularly the practice of human sacrifice.’

it would thus only be fitting for lalo to wash the life of his victims away down this basin, just before he tucks into his evening meal.

𝑑𝑜𝑠,⠀ABUELITA'S PLATES.

his sweet abuelita ... what would his home be without a little piece of her. lalo's kitchen is kitted out, in her honour, with crockery from her all-time favourite supplier. every time he sits down to enjoy a meal, he is reminded not only of his childhood, but of the reasons that he is in this position today: the beautiful, hard-working, courageous salamanca family. it reminds him to be thankful, but most importantly that blood is all.

𝑡𝑟𝑒𝑠, THE SPIRIT CELLAR.

but it isn't all so serious! lalo & the salamancas are rich, he's a bachelor, so of course he's gonna have a bit of fun when he can. below the living space of lalo's hacienda is a cellar for all of his spirit needs. a casual drinker, his two all-time favourites are tequila & mescal. in his cellar, lalo possesses a collection of both which could last a lifetime.

had lalo lived (aggressively side-eyes gustavo fring), he'd have potentially invested in an agave farm and his own, private distillery.

𝑐𝑢𝑎𝑡𝑟𝑜, THE LIBRARY.

an ex - law and society student of new mexico state university, lalo is an avid reader in his downtime. except, he doesn't allow himself much of it. his library is stockpiled with books on mexican and ancient aztec history, law & order and even crime novels. out of all the requested features, the library is his least used ... much to his dismay.

before their deaths, the library was mostly used by lalo's cook yolanda, his gardener cecilio & a young guard named ciro.

𝑐𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑜, THE BATHTUB TRAP DOOR. [ canon ]

a man like lalo salamanca can never be too careful. his final big request, which was more of a demand, was to have a failsafe installed in case he ever needed to escape. only lalo knows about this out of the entire household. it is located in his ensuite, as he personally never bathes and prefers to shower. activating the trapdoor will reveal a passage under his bathtub, which should guide lalo through a tunnel and out of the hacienda compound in emergencies.

no one is more valuable in that compound than he is.

Hola este es un mensaje para el 1.586.985 Madrileños que votaron el 28M. No se que valores morales manejáis teniendo en cuenta que votasteis sabiendo que era la responsable de la muerte de 7.291 ancianos en la residencias sin respiradores ni cuidados paliativos. También es la responsable de pagar 1.280 millones de Euros a la sanidad privada, empobreciendo nuestros servicios de sanidad públicos. También erais conscientes que su padre recibió 400.000 euros de un préstamo de AVAL Madrid. Que no pago ni el primer recibo. EL Piso que estaba como garantía del préstamo, se lo pusieron a nombre de ella y de su Hermano Tomas. El hermano: 230.000 euros, más 1 millón neto con el amigo de infancia. La madre: 1.000.000 euros en contratos públicos. La ex pareja: 500.000 euros a la empresa que le contrató. Jairo trabajaba en su propio centro, Azul de Rizos, y ahora es Chief Operations Officer & Business Development Manager de Asseco, uno de sus clientes es la Comunidad de Madrid. La ex cuñada: 925.000 euros en contratos públicos. Lo del novio no lo sabíais, pero era lógico que también estuviera en la PYME Ayuso S.l. 2. 350.000 euros por la cara. En este video os está engañando una vez más y tratando como imbéciles, ella ya sabía que su " Churri" había reconocido a la fiscalía todas las trampas que intento defraudar a Hacienda. No tan solo le regalan millones de euros , además hay que intentar pagar los menos impuestos posibles. Lo que se dice coloquialmente "basura humana". Así que Villa de Vallecas, Usera o Villaverde, Chamartín y Salamanca la votaron mas del 60%. En Chamberí, Moncloa-Aravaca, Retiro, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Hortaleza y Barajas, el 50% de los votos. El único distrito por debajo del 30% fue Puente de Vallecas, pero también ganó. Si de verdad te importa Madrid o dices amar de verdad a España, no puedes votar lo quete sale de los cojones. Tienes que procurar usar el cerebro, las elecciones no están para darse satisfacciones forofas futboleras. Las elecciones están para responsabilizarnos juntos de nuestro país, con candidatos serios y preparados, con sentido de estado, no de políticos mediocres que se dedican a excitar las bajas pasiones de los ciudadanos, con debates que sólo buscan su absurdo protagonismo para vivir de la política. Es el futuro de nuestros hijos lo que está en juego. El nivel humano e intelectual de Ayuso no deberían de tener ninguna posibilidad de ostentar ningún cargo publico.

I think it was this blog that mentioned a St Jude reading challenge for charity over the summer? If not, sorry! But I think it is because you talk about books sometimes. I just wanted to let you know that American Cancer Society is doing the same fundraiser starting today for the month of October! And good book recommendations to help keep me reading thru the challenge?

Yes! That was us! Although others may have discussed the same fundraiser too. I’ll say I hope so because it’s for a good cause ☺️

And thank you for sharing! I actually signed up for this fundraiser Friday night. And they do have some other virtual fundraisers people can participate in if they aren’t into reading. This is from the website:

You can get info on how to sign up through Facebook on their website

But anyway! For book recommendations, are you looking for anything or spooky recs for October? I’ll start with spooky recs, but if you’re looking for something else, let us know! (Also for others, please feel free to share some recommendations!)

🎃The Year of the Witching by Alexis Henderson (somewhat dark, very Salem like vibes)

🎃The Hacienda by Isabel Cañas (this book had me looking over my shoulder every few minutes to make sure nothing was behind me 😂 her new book, The Vampires of El Norte is good, too!)

🎃The Witch in the Well by Camilla Bruce (another spooky witchy read)

🎃The Lost Village by Camilla Sten (kind of a haunting meets mystery story)

🎃Ghost Eaters by Clay Mcleod Chapman (if you’re looking for something unique)

🎃Tender is the Flesh by Augustina Bazterrica (this is more body horror/social horror. The way the last line has stuck with me for months is 😳)

🎃The Invisible Hour by Alice Hoffman (every time Concord Mass was mentioned I was like 👀 but big fall vibes with a story about a cult. It does have a paranormal third act that I’m not sure how I feel about)

🎃The Haunting of Maddy Clare by Simone St. James (ghost/haunted house story. But there is a mystery to it that keeps you intrigued)

If you’re looking for more RomCom type witchy reads:

🎃The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna

🎃The Ex Hex by Erin Sterling (I actually liked it’s sequel The Kiss Curse much better)

🎃Mr. October by Bethany Weaver (this is a super short novella about two teachers on Halloween. Very short friends to lovers, but cute!)

SHAKIRA X BIZARRAP - BZRP MUSIC SESSIONS #53

Separation, Shakira-style!

[8.35]

Nortey Dowuona: FC Andorra are 7th in the Segunda Division; Karol G is on the Barbie soundtrack. I say this divorce was the best thing to ever happen to them. [9]

Peter Ryan: A comprehensive public clobbering, an icy-caustic bookend to the relationship that wormed its way into her discography with the ebullient "Me Enamoré", stuffed with double entendre indictments sharp and specific enough to preemptively render any rebuttal pathetic. Structurally it ranks among her most ambitious, all polyrhythms and quasi-freestyle character, the latter part no doubt owing to the BZRP Music Sessions format. There's catharsis in her kicking open the door on the private strife about which she'd previously stayed tight-lipped, and in the meta-narrative of the megastar shaking off the dead weight and finding creative reinvigoration. While they've become fewer and farther between in the last decade, she hasn't lost her knack for creating a Moment -- I heard this at the corner store, wafting out of passing car windows, on the dancefloor -- she wasn't kidding about cashing in. [9]

Alex Ostroff: The main attractions here are Shakira's righteous and yet somehow still icy fury and her impeccable wordplay. She wishes her ex the best with her "supuesto reeemplazo", but makes it absolutely clear that nobody is capable of actually replacing her. In someone else's version of this revenge-pop anthem, your husband absconding with a woman half your age might be a source of insecurity, but for Shakira it's another sign of his cluelessness -- at 44, she's worth two 22-year-olds and presents it as a simple and obvious fact. Bizarrap initially seems to take a backseat, but he brings plenty to the table, evolving his production and adding details that accentuate and complement hers. Tonight, I'm obsessed with the way he brings in that reggaeton-esque percussion right at "Me dejaste de vecina a la suegra/Con la prensa en la puerta y la deude en Hacienda" and how that propels the song into Shakira's triplet of creíste/heriste/volviste rhymes. Shakira's best material in the post-Fijación Oral era of her career has consistently been her Spanish albums, but until the restructuring of streaming and Billboard chart metrics in recent years, their popularity (and pop excellence) was never properly reflected. Of Pique's many, many sins, the one I'm most angry about was causing Shakira to relocate to Spain -- away from her main collaborators and recording studios -- and thus keeping her away from the radio at a time when audiences' engagement with global pop (and especially music in Spanish) seems much bigger and more permanent than the limited crossover moments of the 90's and early 2000's. Her post-BZRP releases have mostly been collaborations with an extremely varied list of rising Latinx stars in a wide range of genres, from a reggaeton heartbreak diss track with Karol G to a regional Mexican polka track with Fuerza Regida about labor rights and Pique firing the nanny who snitched on him for cheating. I have absolutely no idea what to expect from Shakira next, and I couldn't be more excited. [10]

Harlan Talib Ockey: 1) Cultural reset. 2) I love mess. 3) We now go live to Pique stepping on a rake. 4) Infinitely more energy than "Te Felicito" or "Monotonía". 5) Actually, Shakira hasn't sounded this forceful in a long time. 6) Bizarrap at the top of his own game rather than trying super hard to make corridos, for example. 7) "¡LAS MUJERES YA NO LLORAN, LAS MUJERES FACTURAN!"="margin:> [9]

Aaron Bergstrom: As a non-Spanish speaker, I'm probably missing out on some of the nuance here, but allow me to offer a brief letter of recommendation for 1) listening to this for the first time with minimal context, 2) focusing only on Shakira's inflection and intonation, 3) picking out a few lines where she sounds especially pleased with herself, 4) thinking "ooohhhh, I bet these are daggers," and then 5) looking up the English translation and confirming that every single one is just as vicious as you'd hoped. Because let me tell you, it is a delightful experience. [8]

Jessica Doyle: Cuando era niña, en mi escuela podría estudiar solamente francés; no empecé a aprender hablar español hasta desde cuatro o cinco años. Hoy tengo una cita cada día con Duolingo y puedo comprender unas frases, pero quiero apreciar el idioma mucho más, y lo que me motiva, es esta canción. Shakira canta como sus palabras tienen pesos y formas; se puede esucuchar y sentir cuando ellas se chocan con el suelo--"mastique' y trague', trague y mastique'," "con la deuda a la Hacienda." Además, ella gana confianza y acelera, asi que cuando ella canta, "Yo valgo por dos de 22," no es un cope defensivo, es una declaración de hecho. El idioma es su arma y su poder. Y el ritmo es único; ella no lo podría haber canto en inglés. Entonces, escribí este blurb en español; no lo escribí en inglés y traducé. Sé que hay muchos errores (Google Translate me dice que "I translated" no es "traducé," es "traduje"), pero creo que sería un error más grande hablar de esta canción en inglés. La escucho y me hace querer estudiar y aprendar más. [8]

Will Adams: An undersung aspect of what makes "Pa Tipos Como Tú" so compelling is how Bizarrap's beat switch-ups throughout the song propel it forward. It begins as an icy breath of Italo that recalls She Wolf's more delirious moments. Midway through the second verse, the floor caves in to reveal a heavy, rhythmic groove, as if gathering power for the next attack. The second chorus arrives with a walloping synth bass, reminiscent of "Padam Padam" but even more menacing. It makes for one of the most exciting listening experiences of the year, instilling an uncertainty of where this thing is headed next. All the while, Shakira floats on top, mercilessly delivering a brutal takedown that leaves nothing in its wake. [8]

Tara Hillegeist: The last time anyone on Shakira's level tried to write a song about how mad she isn't like this, it was over a decade ago, and "Irreplaceable" that effort absolutely wasn't, drowned in goopy self-affirmation and breathy lack of confidence. Compare the liquid contempt swirling around every syllable, here, the bared-fang sharpness of the enunciation as she howls "You thought you'd hurt me, you only made me stronger/Women no longer cry, women get paid". Shakira's fury isn't the fury of a woman left abandoned, with only scorn as her cold comfort -- as one of pop's inarguable queens, she has an entire country at her back. It's only natural that she can't simply settle for destroying her ex's memory alone, when there's an entire dancefloor waiting to destroy it in her honor instead. Pity Shakira's ex-husband, who will go down in pop-cultural history as nothing more than the expertly character-assassinated trophy this song leaves behind to hang on the she-wolf's wall, alongside all the others who thought to make a prize of her instead, only to find, as ever, that it's not their world to rule, but hers. Or don't; the viperous specificity with which she approaches the subject matter in question makes it readily apparent that from her perspective, this reckoning was only ever held at bay by the love he squandered in the first place. The other woman should probably count herself lucky Shakira only holds her accountable for thinking herself entitled to taking Shakira's place in his affections; if there were any other reasons, Shakira clearly wouldn't have hesitated to include them. Let the dancefloor show mercy, then, if there's any to be found. [9]

Katherine St Asaph: Shakira's hips don't lie; their involuntary sway, she's said, is how she identified Bizarrap's track as a Depeche Mode homage too chilly to pass up. And yet the track is not nearly as cold as the way Shakira vaporizes her song's targets from on high. That her specific complaints are relatively petty -- basically, that getting cheated on has stuck Shakira with a lot of rich person problems -- is beside the point. Repeatedly, she drops the real names of two real-ass people, syllable by syllable via careful wordplay, as if putting a scope into place. Her vocal is mixed loud, processed past any human timbre, and arranged to fill all space in the track. She sounds less like an individual jilted woman than a metallic weapon, than the genderless, pitiless, all-judging voice of God. Finally comes the killing smite: "and now you're with someone just like you." It's not often that experiencing a punching-down feels this bitter and inevitable, this compelling and correct. [10]

Rose Stuart: I said in my review of Olivia Rodrigo's "Vampire" that, in the year of breakup songs, hers was the only one that wasn't full of posturing. This is the only song where that posturing feels earned. Where other songs made neither their pain nor strength convincing, Shakira comes out triumphant, coming for blood with each finely picked detail in every savage line. The song never stops going in, even using the name of her ex's partner for some masterful wordplay. I've heard many breakup songs that try to go at the singer's ex, but this is the first time I've actually felt sorry for the song's subject -- after all, it must be hard to show your face in public after being roasted this thoroughly. [9]

Wayne Weizhen Zhang: A swaggering, sexy encounter that has me simultaneously wanting me to say "I'm too good for you, bitches!" and "Step on my face, mother!" [9]

Jacob Sujin Kuppermann: lol hell yeah [8]

Alfred Soto: With any insignificant number of synths per track signifying as "1980s" the response to this track was a given, but the thudding insistence of its beat muscled past those assumptions. As alert as a burglar with good tools, Shakira talks so much shit that the judgment fades before the verdict. Imagine if they'd released this at the height of the 2010-2011 EDM epoch. [8]

Jonathan Bradley: Bizarrap's sleek, gleaming disco sets off the lack of adventure in Dua Lipa's 2023 comeback; these cool synths glide with a propulsive sense of drama. Shakira, uncharacteristically, is the weak spot though, allowing herself to recede into the background. She doesn't always command attention, but even her reserve is usually compelling all on its own. Here, she's content to vibe, waiting for someone else to make something happen. [5]

Brad Shoup: Impeccably imaged: we're used to that from Shakira. But the chilliness is something else: a brisk disco kiss-off that fogs up the anguish she's audibly fighting. The way she paces herself is really cool: icy pop in the first verse, a switch to reggaeton cadence at the end of the second that fully detonates in the third. She's acting as her own feature rapper: just another power move. [8]

Ian Mathers: I was the high mark last time we covered Shakira, but even if I was going to be here (doubt it!) it'll clearly be for very different reasons. With "Don't Wait Up" it was that fucked-up little organ (or whatever) riff, and while Shakira was good, her performance wasn't specifically what drew me to the track. Here, while the production is good, it's her performance that's much more central. Even before my monolingual ass looks up a translation you can kinda just tell from the vibe that someone is getting it in the neck, and/or Shakira is feeling her oats ("and," as it turns out) and then once you do... "Sorry, I already took another plane" is a hell of a way to start. Plenty of specific detail lurking in there, but the repeated "I was too big for you and that's why you are with a girl just like you" fairly blisters as it goes past. [8]

Taylor Alatorre: All else aside, it must really suck to not only have the Tsar Bomba of diss tracks dropped on you, but to have that track sent out to the world with this podcast episode-ass title. Like, at least Jay-Z can boast that he's part of the reason we all say "ethered" now; no such consolation here. The tossed-off nature of the release, while adding insult to injury -- you don't even get an album track! -- makes it harder to admit this into the pantheon of the greatest diss songs of all time. But I get the sense that legacy is not really what Shakira is concerned with here. This is a crime committed in the heat of the moment, in broad daylight, and everyone will remember where they were when they witnessed it. For her, that is enough. [7]
