Laundry Service

Laundry Service is Shakira's 2001 album and her first primarily English-language release. Musically it blends pop and pop rock with Latin pop and world-music touches, using acoustic guitar, Andean-influenced instrumentation, dance and house-tinged rhythms, and Shakira's distinctive vocal delivery. The record represents a deliberate crossover into the anglophone market and pairs uptempo, danceable tracks with earnest ballads, featuring well-known songs such as "Whenever, Wherever" and "Underneath Your Clothes".
