Shakira releases her latest and assures that she fought with the record company for its release
Despite being completely convinced that ‘La Última’ would be released, Shakira commented that she had to confront the record label to make it possible.
«It’s a song that I had stuck there, I had to release it no matter what and the delivery deadlines for the album had already run out. It was against everyone’s will, because they didn’t want me to do more songs, and I said ‘no, no, no, wait, I have one left, I have to release it’, and that’s how it was,» commented the Colombian.

Complete lyrics of ‘Última’, by Shakira
First of all, I thank you for what I experienced.
Please let me speak, don’t interrupt me, I’m asking you.
What happened to us has already happened and it didn’t make sense
And if you were confused now I feel the same
Surely in time you will regret it
And someday you want to knock on my door again
but now
I have decided to be alone
