Shakira says `She Wolf` came to her ‘mysteriously’

Washington: Shakira says the concept for her new single `She Wolf` was a sudden flash of inspiration to her, which took her by surprise.The Colombian singer insists that she was amazed when she began ‘howling and panting’ while writing her new single.

"‘She Wolf’ came to me very mysteriously. I was in the studio in a bad mood that day, then I got inspired and went to a corner and I wrote the lyrics and the melody in 10 minutes. The image of the she wolf just came to my head, and when I least expected it, I was howling and panting," Contactmusic quoted her as saying. Shakira also admitted that she was surprised to find herself improvising during shooting the video for the single, but says feel "physically connection" to songs is important. "I am in a cage, but I am showing the desperation of being in it. I got a little carried away, hanging upside down,” she told Rolling Stone magazine. "Pleasing my ears is my first commitment. I always try to connect to my music physically. I have to feel a physical reaction, because if I don’t feel like I’m dancing or reacting, if I don’t feel it here, in my stomach, I don’t stop," she added. ANI
