* MasqueradeBall: Ironically for the meaning of the song, the image of the masquerade ball does ''not'' seem to be being used as the social metaphor that all people are hiding who they are. Instead, it is calling out the nature of humans to have such parties as some kind of social institution that nobody particularly enjoys but goes along with, as well as the plentiful rules imposed on such kind of fancy parties that cause a forced pretension to access proper adult society. It also serves double-duty as the music video representation of the quinceañera, where it is used to reinforce that point about having to fit certain rules and images to join the adults, as many teenage girls are expected to do.

The English translation of the name would be "Bare Feet, White Dreams". This is referring to being wholly natural and innocent, which leads right into the meaning of the song. Meaning? It's just a WordSaladLyrics Latin Rock hit? Jajajaja. It's social satire; very strong social satire, at that, despite being mostly lost on Shakira's new anglophone fanbase. The interpretations range from taking a hit at unnatural human laws and conventions in general, to specifically women and women in more conservative places, all the way to a very narrow focus on overloading teenagers with archaic customs and expectations instead of letting them live their own lives on the brink of adulthood. But, no matter how you read it, the song is definitely saying that invented rules are bad.
And it's not just the song lyrics. The music video, which may look like several intercut BigLippedAlligatorMoments, is exaggerating the images of the song to mock them even more. Eve portrayed as Gluttony? Check. Literal "dust to dust"? Check. Frightening masquerade ball-cum-quinceañera? Check. Did Music/TheKillers borrow ideas from it? Possibly.
Basically, Shakira is a badass, and while not wearing shoes.

* AcceptableFeminineGoalsAndTraits: "Pies Descalzos" ("Bare Feet"), which seems to be sung to a teenage girl telling her the expectations of being a woman by equating one with all women of history; however, it may be presented as satire by loading all of these expectations onto teenage girls at their quinceañeras. It starts with mentioning the original sin, [[labelnote:more discussion]]though going on to say that women fought dinosaurs, then gets back to criticizing the girl for saying she wants her own happiness when she (or, historically, women) had never cared a bit about herself. The chorus says she comes from an ancient race of bare feet and white (perhaps 'pure' or innocent) dreams, and (though hard to understand even in Spanish) that she always assumes iron left in heat weakens, likely a metaphor for crumbling under pressure, and potentially saying not to believe that (about herself).[[/labelnote]] Then a verse describes how she (the addressee)/women built lives that were perfectly calculated, but says that she (the singer) is a complete mess by not knowing timings and names and movements, before listing a lot of said "acceptable" female actions dictated by society: politeness, saying and feeling only certain things, working hard, being pure in religion, to not speak at the dinner table, to ''[[{{Irony}} always wear shoes]]'', to dress well, to get married before 30 and, above all, have good champagne at your quinces and to perform the special waltz well. It's almost certainly satire, likely to say that it's wrong to put all this on a 15-year-old girl, and on women in general, especially since it heavily invokes tradition but also exaggeratedly ancient tradition, as well as addressing it somewhat mockingly, it may also be potentially calling on people to care about real social issues rather than making traditional gender roles a bigger deal. Or it may be genuinely warning poor teenage girls what they've unassumingly gotten themselves into, addressing the issue with sarcasm. It is probably part of the modern discourse on the role of the quinceañera and, notably, Colombia is one Latin country where it's become more common for girls to not have a quinceañera party.

"Pies Descalzos, Sueños Blancos" is a 1996 single by Music/{{Shakira}} from her 1995 album ''Music/PiesDescalzos''. Ironically, it was not the first single from the album, and was actually one of the worse performing singles from it -- though not unsuccessful at all. Because of the song's lengthy title, it is often just called "Pies Descalzos", which can lead to confusion with the album, and the foreign versions are often only a translation of this first part.
