  • Music Shakira says 'Última' will be her last song about her ex, Gerard Piqué

Like a roller coaster. This is how it could be defined:

Women no longer cry.

Shakira's new album, released this March 22, tells of her breakup with Gerard Piqué with pain, anger and sadness. However, this is not the album her fans thought. And on Twitter, a large part of her followers wanted the Colombian to destroy the footballer through his lyrics... And, to be fair, that is not the case. In fact, in minute three of the album, the performer

already shows how vulnerable her ex makes her feel.

Still, she doesn't give in.

Women No Longer Cry

has 17 songs, of which only eight are unreleased songs. And probably the strongest of them is the second:

The strong one

. A danceable hit, along with Bizarrap, where Shakira tells what her most feminist supporters don't want to know about her: that there is a part of her that does want to get back with Piqué. "If I had known it was going to be the last time,

I would have enjoyed you more, but I didn't take advantage of you

. And because I believed that you had no expiration date, I saved kisses for later and I was left wanting," the initial verse begins.

"I would be lying to you if I said that seeing my photos with you doesn't hurt me, because it hurts...

If I don't look for you, it's because I also have my pride.

Don't think that I don't miss you, because I miss you," he confesses with surprising sincerity. . Above all, because there are other songs that seem to demonstrate the opposite of what, at first, she proclaims. For example, her collaboration with the Frontera Group, in which the Barranquilla woman explains, with spite, her breakup with the father of her children, because of Clara Chía.

"It's noticeable when you want to. But when you don't, it's more noticeable. Before you came without calling, now you leave without warning. [...] This doesn't matter anymore. You put the end in parentheses. [...] And you , you've already given up on it. Just be honest, I ask you.

I prefer the truth to living with your shared lips. It's hurting me... And you don't know how much!

Because of you the room froze. Every word hurts me, I don't think I'll recover," the hurt wolf howls. However, the song that truly shows Shakira's wounds doesn't come until the end.

We talk about

Ultima.

A heartbreaking ballad, in the purest style of old hits, like

No, Moscas en la casa

and

Lo que más

. "First of all, I thank you for what I experienced. Please, let me speak, don't interrupt me, I ask you. What happened to us, already happened, and it didn't make sense...

And if you were confused, now I feel the same way.

Surely "Over time you will regret it and one day you will want to knock on my door again. But now I have decided to be alone," declares Shakira, accompanied by a piano that adds even more melancholy to the matter.

"I lost my love halfway, how did you get tired of something so genuine? Don't try to convince me, I

ask you... It's already decided, we're left with what we've learned,"

he says. Despite this, he then calmly explains why her crisis with the Barcelona star began. "You wanted to go out and I wanted to stay with you at home. You wanted to take on the world and I just wanted to have you. Not even your friends and mine anymore combined. It was easier to mix water and oil," she says.

"You say that it made you feel that nothing was ever enough for me... And that for me everything was little, insufficient. So you left and left me a space here in my bed. Time passes and I can't get you out of my mind. Surely "Over time I will regret it... And one day I will want to knock on your door again," he says. But... Is Shakira truly alone? Apparently not. And that is what she reveals in

Nassau

. A song that refers to a situation that occurred at her house in the Bahamas...

With someone who does not seem to be Catalan.

"It's not that I'm selfish, but before I undress, I need some clue to know if it's happening to you too. The tension is killing you, but you're keeping it to yourself. I who had promised that I would never love again, you appeared to heal the wounds that that one left. I had that closed with keys and padlock. But... What do I do?

I like you too much. Tell me, my love, what is the plan? To see if it motivates me...

No "I need no one else when I'm with you. Take me to a place with no signal and I get lost with you. After doing it non-stop, we repeat it," he says.

"I already know where this is going and I'm afraid of another disappointment. I don't want to get hurt... But you've already opened your heart to me and now a plane has more reverse," sings the most flirtatious Shakira, without revealing a single clue about her new lover. However, what is clear is that the Caribbean woman has the temperature through the roof and she demonstrates it in

Cohete

, the fourth song on the album. In it, the artist and Rauw Alejandro unleash the most erotic side of her and Shakira launches a line, in part, comparable to the controversial

"only in your mouth, I want to finish" by Enrique Iglesias.

"You send me to another planet, when you finish your mission. I don't want anyone to interfere in our relationship. Baby, I just long to be with you, to love us in some corner

and eat each other without any complications.

There is no greater pleasure than touching you. No one like "You make me flow. I don't want the moon, or go to Mars. I just want to make you come," the celeb sings, spicier than ever, who also dedicates another song to her new lover. It's about

Marksmanship.

The first single from the album, whose video -along with Cardi B- was released this morning.

"I spend the whole night indecisive and I wake up with your shirt... I don't know if I want to stop anymore.

And your hands melt me, your lips drug me, your biceps make me go crazy. I never address you, you always arrive steadily... "Even my G-spot. You have good aim. You know where to hit me so that I feel exhausted. You attack me where it hurts the most, you don't suit me. But in your bed or mine, I forget all that," intones sexy, while caressing the torso of actor Lucien Laviscount, known for playing Alfie in

Emily in Paris.
