"Objection (Tango)" and "Te Aviso, Te Anuncio (Tango)" are latin pop songs written and composed by the Colombian pop star Shakira for her 2001 breakthrough English language album, Laundry Service.
[edit] Song information
One is sung in English, the other in Spanish. Both share the same rhythm. The English version of the single reached number fifty-five on Billboard's Hot 100 chart, while the Spanish single version reached number sixteen on Billboard's Hot Latin Tracks chart. "Objection", unlike its Spanish twin, was the first song written by Shakira purely in English.
The song did not receive good airplay and quickly flopped reaching only #55 on the the hot 100.
Note: on the booklet for the album, "next to her cheap silicon I look minimal" is written. The correct spelling would be "next to her cheap silicone I look minimal". Silicon is a chemical element while silicone, what Shakira really meant, is the name of the implant used in breast enlargements. The segment of the music video where that line is said has subtitles, and the correct word is used.
