Island : Shakira
Listen to Shakira's cover of The XX's song "Islands". A snippet of this remake leaked back in May but it wasn't until today that we could hear it in its entirety. Shakira's "Islands" will be included on her upcoming bilingual album "Sale El Sol" due out next week. By the way, the Colombian pop star had actually debuted this cover this summer at Glastonbury Festival (Watch below). Shakira sings "Islands" pretty well, and has tried hard to make it her own but STILL I think the original is untouchable. I'm very picky when it comes to mainstream artists covering songs from indie bands sorry. Love Shakira regardless but I'm more excited to hear her NEW stuff. So bring that now! Can't wait to check out "Sale El Sol". Loca! Loca! (Source: directlyrics.com)

Shakira - Islands Lyrics and Video
I don't have to leave anymore
What I have is right here
Spend my nights and days before
Searching the world for what's right here
http://lyrics-video-music.blogspot.com/2010/10/shakira-islands-lyrics-and-video.html
Underneath and unexplored
Islands and cities I have looked
Here I saw
Something I couldn't over look
I am yours now
So now I don't ever have to leave
I've been found out
So now I'll never explore
See what I've done
That bridge is on fire
Going back to where I've been
I'm froze by desire
No need to leave
Where would I be
IF this were to go under
It's a risk I'd take
I'm froze by desire
As if a choice I'd make?
