What does it mean? I received the email from Kate Sala, the choreographer of this dance. She explained to me the meaning of Shakatak. The name of the song "Ciega Sordamuda" translated means Blind, Deaf and Dumb. The lyrics is in Spanish as is Shakira who sings it. The song is about a girl who is stuck in a relationship with a bad guy. She tries to ignore the situation as she is in love with him. So there is a balttle going on within her heart and that is why Kate Sala called it "Shakatak" Shakira Attack. Pronounced as Sha-a-tak. New dance - Need 2 Cha-Cha 03/04/2004 - Ring My Bell 02/26/2004 - Mesmerized 02/19/2004 - Ged It Right 02/12/2004 - We're Alive 02/05/2004 - Sube-Amor Sube-Amor. Based on my research, you can visit http://www.nd.edu/~archives/latin.htm (Latin to English dictionary), Su means "sew together or stitch together", be means "very rare". Amor is a very common Latin word and is used in Spanish and Italian, it means "Love". So, put that together, Sube-Amor means "Stitch together a very rare love", i.e. it's a love song. The song has a "love song" melody. 01/29/2004 - We're all Alone . I have a copy of the video clip of this dance from Andrew Palmer, the choreographer of this dance. If you want to view it, please send me an email and I'll email you a copy. 01/29/2004 - We're all Alone 01/22/2004 - No Class (Chinese New Year) 01/15/2004 - Special CBC Television night 01/08/2004 - Leave Right Now or Abelarumba, Review Walk on Air, Cool Whip, DHSS, Cho-co-late, Billie Jean 12/18/2003 - Cool Whip 12/11/2003 - DHSS 12/04/2003 - Cho-co-latte and review Christmas Card, Click here for Blue Rose (Double) 11/27/2003 - Let me Hear Ya 11/20/2003 - New dances: Black Betty , Suzy D.
