After successfully releasing her single "Can't Remember to Forget You", a duet with Rihanna, as well as the Spanish version of the song, Shakira has revealed the audio for her latest single, "Empire", part of her upcoming album.
Along with the song, the Colombian singer has revealed what will be the cover for her new album, "Shakira", which will be released on March 25, to celebrate her birthday.
With her hair pulled back, a strapless dress and sitting in a sexy position, Shakira is seen in the black and white cover, with her face au naturel and humble as the singer from Barranquilla has always been.
The release of "Can't Remember to Forget You" was a complete success, and it was among the top popularity ranks in iTunes downloads and among the first in popularity charts in the United States and Canada.
The video for "Can't Remember to Forget You", co-written by Shakira, Rihanna, John Hill, Tom Hull, Daniel Ledinsky and Erik Hassle shows Shakira and Rihanna's sensuality in provocative and erotic scenarios, which caused a stir among the fans of both singers.
With her latest album, Shakira returns to the stage. The Colombian singer made sporadic performances during most of 2012 and 2013, when she was dedicating her time to her son and her partner, footballer Gerard Piqué.
The couple is considered to be one of the most solid in Latino media, and strengthened their love with the arrival of their first son who has also joined the music industry as a small coach during Shakira's participation in The Voice 2013 and now also in The Voice 2014.
Empire Lyrics
Take off all of your skin
And brave when you are free
Shake off all of your sins
And give 'em to me
Close up, lemme back, yeah
I wanna be yours, wanna be your hero
And my heart beats...
Like the empire of the world unite
We are alive
And the stars make love to the universe
You're my wildfire every single night
We are alive
And the stars make love to the universe
And you touch me
And I'm like and I'm like and I'm like
Oh oh
And I'm like
Oh oh
And I'm like
Oh oh
I will follow you down wherever you go
I, I'm baby I'm bound to you and do you know?
Closer, pull me in tight
I wanna be yours, wanna be your hero
And my heart beats...
Like the empire of the world unite
We are alive
And the stars make love to the universe
You're my wild fire every single night
We are alive
And the stars make love to the universe
And you touch me
And I'm like and I'm like and I'm like
Oh oh
We are alive
Oh oh
And I'm like
Oh oh
We are alive
I'm just gonna raise my head
Welcome to the final end
And I'm gonna fight
I'm just gonna raise my head
And hold you close..
Like the empire of the world unite
We are alive
And the stars make love to the universe
You're my wild fire every single night
We are alive
And the stars make love to the universe
And you touch me
And I'm like and I'm like and I'm like
Oh oh oh
