“Inevitable” is a song by Colombian singer-songwriter Shakira. It was released on September 29, 1998 by Sony Music Colombia, and is included as the fifth track in her album, Dónde Están los Ladrones? (1998). The sentimental ballad is about a woman’s honesty to her former lover and how she feels her life to be subsequently monotonous. In the accompanying music video, Shakira is depicted as singing in an arena full of admirers screaming for her. Shakira wrote the lyrics for the song. Along with Luis Fernando Ochoa, she composed the music and managed the production.
