== Background and release ==
After releasing her second major album, ''¿Dónde Están los Ladrones?'', in 1998, achieving a lot of success, Shakira released her first live album, ''MTV Unplugged: Shakira'', in 2000. However, Shakira wanted to break through in the United States and the world with songs in English. Shakira said, "Before assuming this big challenge of writing for the first time in English and making my first English album and presenting it to the world… of course I was feeling ready for it, a little bit scared… actually a lot scared. But I knew I could do it and my instincts always told me to go ahead and jump in the water." Then, "Whenever, Wherever" was released as her debut-English single, on 27 September 2001.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://itunes.apple.com/pt/album/whenever-wherever-ep/id456666196 )〕 At the same time, a Spanish version titled "Suerte" (meaning Luck) was released for Spanish markets.〔
