I have been impressed with just about every Unplugged performance, because you only get people who can really perform on there.

Lauryn Hill shocked everyone by keeping it real... rusty, but I think that was the point of the series: to showcase raw talent.

omg this is SO GOOD! I am watching a rip from a Japanese re-broadcast of Hole's MTV "Unglued" as Courtney introduced it lol

I forgot she does "You Know You're Right".. one of the last songs that Kurt Cobain wrote and recorded. Nirvana fought over releasing it on the box set.

She did "Old Age" too which I read was another Nirvana song "re-worked".

That show was great. My favorite is when she sung "Water".
Some people think I'm kinda cute
But that don't compute when it comes 2 Y-O-U.

I know... there's where it all got fucked up confused

¿Dónde están los ladrones? was gr8 and then Landry Service came along barf

And then Oral Fixation --- La Tortura and Hips Don't Lie ill feeling ill barf


¿Dónde están los ladrones? is still my favorite shakira album...."Tú" makes my vagina moist! cool

Laundry service has incredible songs like Te Dejo Madrid and Que Me Quedes Tú. Actually "Que Me Quedes Tú" is very special to me.

About both volumes of Oral Fixation, I love Fijación Oral Vol. 1...it's perfect! "No" also makes me super moist on my vagina!

About Oral Fixation vol.2...it's so dreadful

So let's say I'm a shakira fan...but only of her spanish stuff


hmph! I'm no longer a fan hmph!

Shakira: flip u

Tori & Bjork both did Unplugged. I don't think Tori's was officially released as an album. There are bootlegs of it though. I don't remember actually watching Bjork's on tv.....I remember Tori's though. Fiona Apple's was nice too. I still have Mariah's Unplugged. It's probably one of the few albums of hers I could still listen to. I saw a list of all artists that performed on Unplugged, and I don't remember a lot of them. I don't think they aired most of the ones listed.

Nirvana unplugged is my favorite. I especially loved when they performed Where did you sleep last night? That performance was so intense. Love it!
"And When The Groove Is Dead And Gone, You Know That Love Survives, So We Can Rock Forever" RIP MJ heart

"Baby, that was much too fast"...Goodnight dear sweet Prince. I'll love you always heart

CinisterCee, is there any chance you could send me a copy of Hole's Unplugged? I tried to get it off DC++ a while ago on the Nirvana hub but never managed to.

I haven't seen it for years and I love it.


The Hole one and Nirvana's are my favorites. I like Alanis' one as well.

Dear Theo,,,shakira should have never released music in English...

Fijación Oral was hot. Oral Fixation was barf

I'd rank her records like this (excluding the remixes and greatest hits):

Dónde Están Los Ladrones
Fijación Oral Vol.1
MTV Unplugged
Laundry Service
Pies Descalzos
Live And Off The Record
Oral Fixation Vol.2

Haven't heard her first two albums.

Unfortunately, the only Unplugged perfromances I've heard are the ones I've bought since I wasn't into really watching MTV at the time. Ranked like this:


Nirvana


Shakira


Maxwell


Alicia Keys


La Ley

The Cure should have released theirs as the bonus disc on the Greatest Hits compilation instead of the lifeless acoustic versions.

Dude By Far my favorite Unplugged is Maxwell's
The shit is timeless, his version of This Womans Work and Closer are off the hook! Plus he has so much fun in the performances. I listen to the disc like once a week! biggrin
