"La Tortura" Shaketon Remix is an electrifying reinterpretation of my iconic collaboration with Spanish superstar Alejandro Sanz. This remixed version adds an infectious reggaeton beat to our original hit, creating an even more danceable track while maintaining the passionate narrative of love and betrayal. The remastered HD version brings new life to the steamy music video that had everyone talking about my dance moves.

I was 28 when the original version was released, and it became my biggest hit to date, spending 25 weeks at #1 on Billboard's Hot Latin Tracks chart. The song also broke barriers by becoming the first Spanish-language video to air on MTV's Total Request Live.

🎵 L Y R I C S / L E T R A S🎵:
[Shakira:]
AAaaay... AAaaay...
Busca a otro perro con ese hueso y nos decimos adios
No pido que todos los días sean de sol
No pido que todos los viernes sean de fiesta
Tampoco te pido que vuelvas rogando perdón
Si lloras con los ojos secos y hablando de ella

Ay amor me duele tanto

[Sanz:]
Me duele tanto

[Shakira:]
Que te fueras sin decir a dónde
Ay amor fue una tortura...
Perderte

[Sanz:]
Yo sé que no he sido un santo
Pero no puedo arreglarlo

[Shakira:]
No sólo de pan vive el hombre
Y no de excusas vivo yo

[Sanz:]
Sólo de errores se aprende
Y hoy sé que es tuyo mi corazón

[Shakira:]
Mejor te guardas todo
Busca a otro perro con ese hueso y nos decimos adios

[Sanz:]
Con siete velas te invocaré

[Shakira:]
AAaaay... AAaaay...

[Sanz:]
Cosita bella, coje otra vela

[Shakira:]
AAaaay...
Busca a otro perro con ese hueso y nos decimos adios
No puedo pedir que el invierno perdone a un rosal
No puedo pedir a los olmos que te den peras
No puedo pedirle lo eterno a un simple mortal
Ni andar arrojando a los cerdos miles de perlas

[Sanz:]
Ay amor me duele tanto, me duele tanto
Que no creas más en mis promesas

[Shakira:]
Ay amor

[Sanz:]
Es una tortura

[Shakira:]
Perderte

[Sanz:]
Yo sé que no he sido un santo
pero no puedo arreglarlo

[Shakira:]
No sólo de pan vive el hombre
Y no de excusas vivo yo

[Sanz:]
Sólo de errores se aprende
Y hoy sé que es tuyo mi corazón
[Shakira:]
Mejor te guardas todo
Busca a otro perro con ese hueso y nos decimos adios
Busca a otro perro con ese hueso y nos decimos adiós

[Sanz:]
Oye negrita mira!
Pierdes mi amor
Pierdes mi amor

Oye mi negra

[Shakira:]
Aaaay...

[Sanz:]
Yo sólo soy un hombre arrepentido
Busca a otro perro con ese hueso y nos decimos adiós
Yo sé que no he sido un santo
Y es que no estoy hecho de cartón

[Shakira:]
No solo de pan vive el hombre y no de excusas vivo yo

[Sanz:]
Sólo de errores se aprende y hoy sé que es tuyo mi corazón

[Shakira:]
AAaaay... AAaaay... AAaaay... Ay Ay
Ay todo lo que he hecho por tí
Fue una tortura perderte
Me duele tanto que sea así

Sigue llorando pero
Yo ya no voy a llorar... por tí

#Trump admin cuts undermine efforts to track abducted Ukrainian children


U.S. foreign assistance cuts and sanctions against the International Criminal Court are obstructing efforts to track and recover thousands of #UkrainianChildren taken by #Russian forces during the ongoing war, a senior European official warned on July 17, according to Politico.

Thordis Gylfadottir, an envoy of the Council of Europe, said the end of U.S. financial support to monitoring programs has complicated the search for more than 19,500 Ukrainian children who have been unlawfully #deported or #forcibly transferred to #Russia since its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

According to Ukraine's official Bring Kids Back UA initiative, 19,546 children are confirmed abducted. Only 1,399 children have been brought back to Ukraine as of July 2025.

Israel and the Gaza Humanitarian Fund (GHF) have turned aid distribution into macabre spectacles. The statistics should hold more weight than the GHF’s justifications – out of 875 Palestinians killed since the distribution sites started operating, 674 happened “in the vicinity of GHF sites”.

Yesterday 21 Palestinian people were killed in a stampede at a GHF distribution centre in Khan Younis.

Le domaine de Chalès - l'institut visant à former les futures élites de l'extrême-droite, pensé et financé par le milliardaire ultra réac Pierre-Édouard Stérin - accueillera ses premiers élèves à la rentrée... pour une éducation non mixte, anti woke et catho.

Cela va ancrer d'avantage l'extrême-droite ultra réactionnaire dans la Sologne qui compte déjà plusieurs communautés Saint Pie X, ds mecs comme Guillaume Peltier ou la ville de Salbris, véritable laboratoire facho (entre le député RN et le maire lié au GUD, à Stérin, etc).

Cela est aussi une terrible jurisprudence car Stérin compte bâtir plusieurs autres Académie Saint Louis sur le même modèle.

En décidant de ne pas s'opposer à une école hors contrat, ouvertement réactionnaire, le rectorat d'Orléans-Tours permet au milliardaire fasciste de développer son projet Pericles qui vise à imposer une société catholique, blanche et traditionnaliste en France.

Although the Labour party is denying that its fiscal management amounts to austerity, many of us detect the same logic that drove much of the previous Tory govt's fiscal actions; the problem is that austerity is a false economy, often failing to bring events thin benefits it claims, and making public services worse for everyone.

It may not be news but we *do* need to remind ourselves regularly that austerity is one key cause of the UK's problems!

"Día de Enero" is one of my most heartfelt romantic ballads, combining gentle Latin pop rhythms with folk influences. The song beautifully captures the essence of falling in love and remembering the exact moment when two souls connect. Its poetic lyrics and melodic composition showcase my more tender musical side, different from my usual high-energy performances.

"Dia de Enero" by Shakira is a vibrant and rhythmic song that celebrates love and the beauty of life. With its infectious melodies and heartfelt lyrics, this track captures the essence of Shakira's unique style, blending Latin pop with a touch of folk influences. Released in the mid-2000s, it remains a beloved favourite among fans.

I wrote this song when I was 28 years old, and it became particularly popular across Latin America and Spain. The song peaked at #3 on the Billboard Latin Pop Airplay chart and remained in the top 10 for 11 weeks.

🎵 L Y R I C S / L E T R A S🎵:

Letras/Lyrics:
Te conocí un día de enero
Con la luna en mi nariz
Y como vi que eras sincero
En tus ojos me perdí

Qué torpe distracción
Y qué dulce sensación

Y ahora que andamos por el mundo
Como Eneas y Benitín
Ya te encontré varios rasguños
Que te hicieron por ahí

Pero mi loco amor
Es tu mejor doctor

Voy a curarte el alma en duelo
Voy a dejarte como nuevo
Y todo va a pasar
Pronto verás el sol brillar
Tú, más que nadie, mereces ser feliz

Ya vas a ver
Cómo van sanando poco a poco tus heridas
Ya vas a ver cómo va la misma vida
A decantar la sal que sobra en el mar

Y aunque hayas sido un extranjero hasta en tu propio país
Si yo te digo, "¿cómo dices?"
Tú aún dices, "¿qué decís?"
Y lloras de emoción
Oyendo un bandoneón

Y aunque parezcas despistado
Con ese caminar pausado
Conozco la razón que hace doler tu corazón
Por eso quise hacerte esta canción

Ya vas a ver
Cómo van sanando poco a poco tus heridas
Ya vas a ver cómo va la misma vida
A decantar la sal que sobra en el mar

Ya vas a ver
Cómo van sanando poco a poco tus heridas
Ya vas a ver cómo va la misma vida
A decantar la sal que sobra en el mar

Just enjoyed “Día de Enero” by Shakira on tube.matrix.rocks and I’m reminded why this song stands out in Shakira’s discography. The honest simplicity and warmth of this ballad always gets me.

Released in 2005 as part of “Fijación Oral, Vol. 1,” “Día de Enero” is a gentle, acoustic love letter—written for Shakira’s then-partner, Antonio de la Rúa. The video’s natural scenery and Shakira’s heartfelt delivery perfectly capture the song’s message of new beginnings and hope.

While it wasn’t a worldwide chart-topper like some of her other singles, it still found huge popularity across Latin America and is cherished by fans for its authenticity and emotional depth.

Watching it here, ad-free and tracking-free on tube.matrix.rocks, makes the experience even sweeter. This platform is part of the My Privacy DNS project, which is all about upholding our fundamental rights and protecting online privacy (learn more). No ads, no tracking—just pure music.

Did “Día de Enero” resonate with you when it first came out? Does it bring back memories, or is it a new discovery? Let’s chat about what makes this song special to you in the comments!

In Shakira's song "Día de Enero," the "A" she draws in the sand is widely interpreted as representing her love for Antonio de la Rúa, her former partner. The song beautifully reflects themes of love and longing, and the imagery of drawing in the sand symbolises a deep emotional connection. Shakira and de la Rúa were together for over a decade before their split in 2011, and this song captures the essence of their relationship during that time.
