Shakira surprises the world with acoustic version of “Acróstico”

After releasing the official video for “Acróstico” earlier in May, Shakira surprised her fans by posting a video of her playing an acoustic version.

On May 15, Shakira released her official music video for “Acróstico”. There was a bit of controversy regarding the video as she included her two children in it, whom she had with her ex, former soccer player Gerard Piqué. Piqué said he wasn’t aware of the decision to include the kids in the video and is considering taking legal action.

The video itself is a beautiful tribute to her two children, Sasha and Maya, who participate in the song as well, singing and playing piano. Now, Shakira has surprised the world by posting another version of the song. This time, she sings an acoustic version, but just the chorus and just as beautiful in its simpler version.
