Yet another concert and yet another opportunity to watch one of my favourite singers and this time it was Shakira. She was in Abu Dhabi, as part of her only Asian appearance of her 'When the sun comes out' world tour. Amr Diab, a well-known Egyptian singer was supposed to go onstage first and Shakira was supposed to come on at 10 p.m. I timed myself accordingly and drove the 110 kms to Yas Island, looking forward to a great concert.Shakira did not disappoint the thousands of people gathered there to watch her. The only hitch for me was that I had to catch most of the concert on the side-screens since the crowds made it impossible to go near the stage. Shakira being pint-sized and with me not being tall either I could hardly see her on stage. Despite her singing so many Spanish songs that I don't know I still enjoyed the concert. She is an amazing dancer and I particularly enjoyed Waka Waka, Hips don't lie, Loca Loca and her oriental style rendition of Metallica's Nothing else matters.
Shakira also proves another point - Short is sexy!
