Whenever, Wherever

‘Whenever, Wherever’ is another superhit from the singer’s discography. The song which was written by Shakira and Gloria Estefan, is a perfect mix of Latin and Andean music. It’s been more than two decades since the song’s release but people still get chills while listening to this masterpiece.
