I voted for:

Why Wait, Whenever Wherever/Unbelievable and Ojos asi (though i missed the visual aspect )


Why Wait, This new version of Why wait gives a whole new defitinition to the song, and even though the 2nd verse and 2nd chorus's are cut, the beats and the guitars in it make it a rush to listen to.

Whenever Wherever, this new version is almost better then the original, this new rock version also gives a total new definition to the song and makes you wanna headbang at the same time.

Ojos así, the new use of instrumentals and the use of new moves make this version a must see, not only does shakira make total use of all the elements provided to her, she brings this old hit to a new level. The middle dance part is more exotic and mesmerising to look at. The double chorus at the end was a total but a nice, surprise to me. I believe the song has more appeal to listen to live in full then it had before for me. I used to skip listening after the 2nd chorus (dont hate on me Brian )

[Chocolat & Co.]

i'll see about that tomorrow

[Mr.GaGa]

i'll have to wait for the dvd .. lol

[cufnc]

sorry i didn't read the rule so i picked four :/

pienso en ti: i feel like this used to be one of my least favorite songs but the tour breathed some new life into it. now i really enjoy it. like i felt like it took me many years to give this song a real chance, and the tour was the catalyst. also, i touched and kissed her arm while she was singing it, so the performance is now kind of special to me. i also loved that she chose to sing this song cuz it was the one song that no one expected her to do. i love how magnificent it looks when she steps on stage. can't wait for the DVD

gypsy: the reasoning is kind of similar to pienso en ti. i had gotten annoyed of this song but the tour made it fresh and exciting. i love the intimacy of it with all the performers gathered together.

gordita: i'm not sure why, but my friends and i all loved this performance. also, i love the way the live version of the begins and the face coming out

loca: super fun, energetic, makes you want to dance. fun to sing along to in concert

[ShakiraTeAmo]

i´ve voted for:
Pienso En Ti - because it´s so magical when She comes in and walk through the fans
Nothing Else Matters - because She is so close to the fans and her voice is amazing
Ciega Sordomuda - because it´s so fun to watch when She is dancing over the stage and the crowd is dancing

sadly i didn´t saw Waka Waka full because i´ve felt in faint .___.

Gypsy: Actually Gypsy doesn't belong to my favorites. As they had begun to play the gypsyish sound at RIR, I already thought wow! What will happen now? And now again - wow! The rearrangement is like a renascence of this song. Gypsy will never be one of my faves but I love this live performance.

Gordita: Not much to say. Gordita is the pure fun, a song for relaxing.

Ojos Asi: OA is undying. I've never expected that you can discover so many new facets in such an old song. Shaki's reinterpretation was a slight surprise and brings the song to a new level.

[kooLobo]

omg i only voted one too

[Naty Perry]

I have not seen the tour with my own eyes, thank god, we have youtube)))

But i think Gypsy is the best one, and of course, Ojos Asi and maybe WW

[Jairo]

Ojos Asi is the best song in this tour so far
Then, Why Wait and She Wolf

[rpvee]

I've never expected that you can discover so many new facets in such an old song.

But she does that every time!

[Chocolat & Co.]

But she does that every time!

yea I often wondered how does it feel to repeat same expresions and etc everytime

anyway i voted: Despedida, Sale El Sol, Antes De Las Seis

of course I loved the others, especially the renewed/rock version of Why Wait, Whenever, and these Amazing versions of LDLI & Gordita!

but my special ones where the ones i voted for, although she was so far from me in SES and ADL6 since I was at end of catwalk ... but I was feeling those songs extremely and got tears in my eyes! and its the part where you can mostly hear her voice the clearest possible in the whole concert, and it was great!

as for Despedida, as i said in the topic for my concert (6 Dec Paris) it was so special as she looked me in the eye and sang together "Cuando alguien se va, él que se queda sufre mas"
i searched to see if she always does that, like Brian said about OA, but no, she doesnt do that in Despedida, which makes me feel goosebumps all the time still haha :$

[ajathefairy]

I hit the vote button before I scrolled down to see we were supposed to choose 3. Despedida got my one and only vote. It's close to my heart and she did really well with it.

[Good Stuff]

Whenever, Wherever, Loca and Waka Waka ! They were brilliant but all of the songs were amazing !

[Melt Away]

Gypsy
LDLI
She WOlf


Whenever Wherever, meh, i didnt like the rock version. id prefer that she kept it traditional, since its one of her trademark signature songs.

[Contigo]

I have to admit I was disappointed with Whenever Wherever. Aside from the belly dancing lesson, it just seems like an average hit of hers. The Unbelievable part just thrown in didn't seem to go with the song at all. It's my very favourite Shakira song as it's the one that led me to becoming a fan and knowing that she existed...and I know she's performed it hundreds of times before and that's probably why she has mixed it up on this tour, but not all of us have seen her perform it properly! Generally, to me it just lacked the oomph that it has..

My favourite 3 were Waka Waka, Antes De Las Seis and Nothing Else Matters. All were great of course! Pienso En Ti was fantastic, and extremely surreal...

[Chocolat & Co.]

so Gordita is winning by far ?

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mostafa1992]

Well, i've voted for Gypsy, Las de la intuicion, Ojos Asi....but live version of LDLI is my favorite it drives me Loca

[Lobo]

Antes de las Seis was haunting and stunning - the snow was a great touch. And She Wolf was incredibly sexy and fun but I think Ciega, Sordomuda stole the night for me. The energy she had during that song was insane, she was all over the stage.

So for me it was

1. Ciega, Sordomuda
2. She Wolf
3. Antest de las Seis.

[Chico Inglés]

Why Wait
Gordita
She Wolf

I really liked the extra instrumental parts in She Wolf, plus it was one of the only songs that had most people dancing.
Feeling the bassline of Gordita run through me was fantastic too. I enjoyed the visuals for this too.
Why Wait, it's a shame the second verse/chorus was cut, but it was very energetic and a great way to kick things off properly.

[E]

whenever wherever, nothing else matters/despedida and Ojos asi

[Wolf-Hunter]

The entire concert.

[cufnc]

It's funny because I enjoy Whenever, Wherever and Ojos Asi more now (when I watch them on Youtube, listen to recordings, etc.) than I did during the concert

[Naty Perry]

I have not seen the tour with my own eyes, thank god, we have youtube)))

But i think Gypsy is the best one, and of course, Ojos Asi and maybe WW

i changed my mind, i did not like WW that much, except of the dancing part !
my favourite are Ojos Asi, Antes de la seis, She wolf

[ika_hi]

It's hard to pick 3, but whatever...

1. Why Wait: I loved the scene when she played the flag
2. Nothing Else Matters: It was an intimate session
3. Whenever, Wherever: Just love its rock version

[DarkAngel]

Why Wait
Waka Waka
Loca

[Good Stuff]

I'm loving Gordita as well !

[Truth Or Dare]

1.Gordita
2.Las De La Intuicion
3.Ojos Asi
