"Don't Bother" was co-written by Shakira, Leisha Hailey, Heather Reid, and American pop music production trio The Matrix.[2][3][4] Shakira also produced the song.[3] Additional co-production was provided by Lester Mendez and Argentinian singer-songwriter Gustavo Cerati. Similar to her seventh studio album Oral Fixation, Vol. 2, (2005), "Don't Bother" musically shifts to a more rock-styled composition as compared to Shakira's previous English releases.[5][6] According to the sheet music published at Musicnotes.com by Sony/ATV Music Publishing, the song is published in the key of E minor (the relative key G major is in the chorus) and has a moderate rock tempo of 130 beats per minute.[7] Shakira's vocal range on the song spans from the note of E3 to E5.[7] Through the lyrics of the song, Shakira urges her former lover not to "bother" feeling sorry for her after he chose another woman over her.[8] She assures him that he "won’t ever see me [Shakira] cry" and that she will move on in her life without him.[8] The song contains a spoken bridge in which Shakira lists a number of things she could do to make him stay with her, such as "move(ing) to a communist country", but admits that they would not have an effect on him.[8] Pam Avoledo from Blogcritics found the theme of the song similar to the one in Shakira's 2002 single "Objection (Tango)".[8] Shakira described the song as a feminist anthem, saying:

"I think 'Don't Bother' has a lot of pain in it as a song, but also a lot of humour and sarcasm. Yes, it is a way of exorcising all of these feelings, a form of catharsis, getting rid of all of those emotions that torture us women at some point in our lives"[9]

Release

edit

"Don't Bother" was issued by Epic Records as the lead single from Oral Fixation, Vol 2 and premiered on 9 October 2005 in the United States by AOL Music's First Listen initiative.[10][11] The single saw its European physical release on 4 November 2005,[3] having been made available for digital download on the iTunes Store on 18 October.[12] In the United Kingdom, "Don't Bother" was issued as a CD single on 27 February 2006.[13]

Critical reception

edit

The song received generally mixed reviews from music critics. Matt Cibula from PopMatters praised its theme and Shakira's "furious and sexual and self-mocking" vocal delivery, but found the song "strange" and "internally inconsistent".[14] Alexis Petridis from The Guardian complimented the unpredictable nature of the song, although he also noted that the lyrics at times suggested a "faltering grasp of English".[15] Edward Oculicz from Stylus Magazine gave it a positive review, calling the song's chorus "bruised" and "anthemic" and the lyrics "impossible for native speakers to emulate".[16] Pam Avoledo from Blogcritics was also positive towards the song, noting improvement in Shakira's vocal delivery and calling them "brassy yet sensitive".[8] Spencer D. from IGN Music felt the highlight to the song was Shakira's spoken bridge, saying that it lets the "light tinges of her accent roll of her tongue and present her as herself rather than the obvious result of previous pop matrons".[17] Stephen Thomas Erlewine from AllMusic picked the song as a highlight from the album.[5]

Chart performance

edit

In Austria, the song entered the singles chart at number 17 and peaked at number six, spending a total of 24 weeks on the chart.[18] In Finland, the song entered and peaked at number four on the chart, becoming Shakira's highest-peaking single in the region since "Whenever, Wherever", (2001).[19] Its stay in the chart, however, was very short and lasted for only a week.[19] "Don't Bother" reached number five on the singles chart in Hungary,[20] and also peaked at number six on the airplay chart.[21] In Italy, the song performed moderately well, entering the chart at number 12 and peaking at number eight; it spent a total of 11 weeks on the chart.[3] In Norway, the song narrowly missed the top five by peaking at number six.[22] In Switzerland, the song entered the chart at number 10 and peaked at number eight; it stayed on the chart for a long period of 31 weeks.[23] In the United Kingdom, the song debuted and peaked at number nine on the singles chart, spending a total of five weeks on the chart.[24][25] It was Shakira's first single since "Objection (Tango)" (2002), to chart in the country.[25]

In the United States, "Don't Bother" narrowly missed charting inside the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 chart by peaking at number 42.[26] It spent a total of nine weeks on the chart.[26] On the Mainstream Top 40 chart, it peaked at number 25 and spent a total of 10 weeks on the chart.[27] In the US, the song was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America for shipments of 500,000 units.[28]

Music video

edit

The accompanying music video for "Don't Bother" was directed by Jaume de Laiguana, who had previously collaborated with Shakira on the video for "No",[29][30] and was released on 15 November 2005.[31] The video begins with a man parking his sports car in front of a house and proceeding to enter it.[32] Shakira is seen lying on a bed in the house and the man comes up and lies beside her, indicating that they are a couple.[33] As soon as the man falls asleep, Shakira wakes up and lies atop the man and begins to caress him and bite and whisper in his ear a few times, although he does not wake up.[33] Shakira takes the keys of the man's car and drives it to a wrecking yard.[33] The video then interludes to scenes of Shakira sexually romancing the man in a shower.[33] The scene then changes back to the wrecking yard, where Shakira begins playing a pink guitar. After the spoken bridge of the song, Shakira places her partner's car in a car crusher, which soon commences demolishing it.[33] The man reacts in a similar manner to the car being crushed and begins experiencing continuous body jerks and spasms, indicating a connection between his car and his body.[32][33] After the car is fully destroyed, Shakira leaves the man unconscious on the bed, exits the house, and begins walking on the street triumphantly.[33] Shakira explained the usage of the car symbolism in the video, saying that "A man's car is like an extension of their ego and their manhood. I thought this would be a video that would make women say, 'Yeah, yeah!' and it would make men feel".[34]

Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine positively reacted to the video and found it "rich with symbolism".[32] Shakira revealed that a nun from a Catholic high school she had attended was angered by the video by saying that "One of the nuns is looking for me after seeing the "Don't Bother" video".[35]

Resurgence in 2019

edit

After 14 years of release, in the second week of September 2019, the official music video witnessed an unexpected surge in views on YouTube, racking up over 15 million views in 4 days.[36]
