I`M A NEW FAN OF NELLY FURTADO SINCE SHE STARTED RECORDING WITH TIMBALAND HER SONGS ARE MUCH MORE "GROWN UP" AND SHE JUST ROCKS
LOVE ALL THE ALBUM THOUGH MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE IS "SAY IT RIGHT" TOGETHER WITH TIMBALAND
IT IS SUCH A CLASSIC TUNE ! I LISTEN TO IT ANYTIME I FELL DOWN AND I NEED SOME TIME TO RELAX
I WOULD 100% RECOMMEND THIS ALBUM IT IS WORTH EVERY PENNY AND I`M SURE YOU WILL LIKE THE SAME AS ME EVEN IF YOU DIDN`T LIKE NELLY BEFORE
CHEERS

  Nelly Furtado - Loose, Whoa, Nelly!
Review created: 10/07/07
12 of 13 people found this review helpful.

Nelly Furtado's Whoa, Nelly! is one of those albums that's designed to be a surprising, precocious debut -- the kind of record that's meant to make a listener exclaim, well, "whoa nelly" upon the first spin. From that first play, it's evident that Furtado is indeed an audacious songwriter, not at all hesitant to bare her emotions, tackle winding melodies, and bend boundaries to the point that much of the record sounds like folk-pop tinged with bossa nova and backed by a production designed for TLC. Clearly, this is a musician with big, serious ambitions, a notion that is supported not only by her naked lyrics but especially by her singing. Furtado is a restless vocalist, skitting and scatting with abandon, spitting out rapid repetitions, bending notes, and frequently indulging in melismas. This, more than anything, makes her a bit of an acquired taste, since her relentless vocalizing can obscure hooks that are nevertheless there. Once you appreciate (or grow to understand) her quirks, Whoa, Nelly! unfolds as a rewarding, promising debut, albeit one with its flaws. True, most of those flaws arise from its naïveté: a tendency to push too hard, whether it's in piecing together genres in attempt to create something original or lyrics that can sound a little sophomoric in their soul searching. These don't arrive in isolated instances, either -- they're wound into the songs themselves. You either choose to be annoyed by these quirks or become charmed by them, realizing it's a first album, and savoring the talent that's apparent on much of the album. Many of her blends of pop, folk, dance, and Latin are beguiling; she has a knack for strong pop hooks (particularly on "On the Radio," "Well, Well," and "Turn off the Light"); her lyrical imagery can be evocative; she has a sly sense of humor; and, when she doesn't get carried away, she's an inventive, endearingly eccentric vocalist. These are the things that endure after that first slightly bewildering spin of Whoa, Nelly! and those are the things that make you wonder where she goes from here.

This album is my best buy this year so far, Track 1 and 8 are my favourites and of course Maneater. Recommended album very different from her previous stuff. Buy it.

Review created: 07/05/07

Nelly Furtado's Loose will not dissapoint - if you love, sexy, seductive beats, fun tempos and great lyrics this is the album for you! I loved Maneater, Promiscuous, and All Good Things, but when I heard Say it Right I had to get this CD... and I wasn't disappointed at all! Every track is a pleasure to listen to, there are NO fillers on this album! Each track was carefully made and they're scorching! This CD should be played LOUDLY!

1) Afraid -- This track is very true and honest about the hurt a lot of people go through... I've had Depression myself, and this track really got through to me. This song is sexy, with a really catching chorus. Rate it:- 7/10
2) Maneater -- As one of her singles, you must know this song... this track is sexy and great for the summer! Rate it:- 7/10
3) Promiscuous -- Everybody knows Promiscuous.. her biggest single, a huge club hit, this song is really sexy and the chorus is hot as hell! Try playing this in a dark room with no lights... club sexy! Rate it:- 8/10
4) Glow -- This is a really fun, up-tempo, kinda naughty-sounding track. The chorus is repetitive, but so naughty-sounding it will really win with girls who got attitude! Another sexy track, rate it:- 7/10
5) Showtime -- This is a really pretty song... the prettiest song on the album. It's very beautiful, really gorgeous... so sweet, but not in a kiddy way. Rate it:- 8/10
6) No Hay Igual -- This song is completely in Spanish so unless you know Spanish you won't be able to understand a word lol, which is a shame, but this song is super sexy so it makes up for not knowing what the words are! Great, sexy chorus, rate it:- 7/10
7) Te Busque -- This is a sweet, ballad-type song with a chorus duet. Very Spanish. The verses are in English but the chorus is not, but with the verses understandable you get an idea of what the song is about. I don't like this track as much as others, but it's not to be skipped. Rate it:- 6/10
8) Say it Right -- You know this one, VERY hot, sexy beat to it. I absolutely love this song, and the chorus is great, really sexy and catchy... this is a great track, though I wish the chorus was 3 times like the usual song instead of just twice lol... the guitars are very sexy too. You must play this song loudly to get the full advantage of it. Played low it gets underestimated! Rate it:- 8-9/10
9) Do it -- A very fun song, uptempo, great for the summer! This track is a must while you're sunbathing this summer! ;) Rate it:- 8/10
10) In God's Hands -- Again, I don't like this track as much as others, but it's very, very sweet, very very pretty, a beautiful track. Those who are very sensitive may get teary! :)
11) Wait for You -- Another really sexy track, rate it:- 8/10
12) All Good Things -- You know this one too, a gorgeous track. I don't like it as much as I did though, got bored a bit of this after hearing the other tracks on this album! Rate it:- 7-8/10
13) Let My Hair Down -- VERY sexy, naughty, seductive song... shows Nelly at her most seductive! Rate it:- 8/10
14) Somebody to Love -- This is the song I least like on the album. I often stop the CD after track 13, Let My Hair Down. I see it more as a background song, rather than a song you can't help listening to. A lot of people may love it, though, just personally I don't much. Whether you love it or not though, it does not stop this being a hot, must-have album!

Play it loudly! -... But then again all good music should be played loudly shouldn't it ;)

If you were going to buy any CD this year, buy this! I've always liked Nelly Furtado but her music was becoming a little too poppy and sweet. When I first heard 'Maneater' I thought, 'oh this is alright who's it by?' could not believe it was by Nelly Furtado.
It was a new mature sound. After having her baby, she's seemed to have found her sexy side and boy does this album show it. The bird has flown.
There's not one track on this CD I don't like and I play it a lot and when I'm at the gym to keep me going. The base on the tracks really add to the feistiness and show just how much Nelly has grown up in musical terms, I'm no expert but that's my opinion.
Buy this album and I guarantee by track 3 you'll be up and convincing yourself you're sexy and you can dance. But don't just buy it for the music, the words are just as mature.
Thanks for reading...........

  Nelly grows up!!!

I purchased Loose by Nelly Furtardo as i have always been a fan of her music and i own all the cd's she has brought out to date.
I like loose as i feel it has a more grown up edge to it, but it does have talking at the start of all the tracks which is a bit annoying. She does have a wonderful voice and tracks like Maneater,Promiscuous and Say It Right are sure to be dance floor classics in time.
This album is produced by Timbaland which make it more now than her other albums and Nelly Furtardo has a lovely voice in comparison with a lot of her peers who chart today.

Brilliant.
I've always liked Nelly-'I'm Like A Bird' is a classic from an earlier album.
This cd is packed with some great songs and are very easy to listen to.
'All Good Things Come To An End' is fantastic and it has stayed in my head since first hearing it.

That is a sign of a very talented songwriter. Buy it-it's superb.

I'm rocker by trade and dont go in for lame ass RnB stuff. But to be truthful I've heard all the singles of this album and found myself moving and grooving to all of em. So I figured that it must have some quality to it. I bit the bullet n brought loose. And I love it. Its so catchy it could play cricket!

I very rarely purchase a CD having only heard 1 track but that is exactly what I did with this one after hearing Maneater! Having seen the video on Sky as well as the extended version (which is brilliant) I went straight out and bought the album. What a gamble that paid off! Maneater is a fantastic song which can almost be a throwback to the late 80's cheesey film soundtracks but in a brilliant way! Nelly sure has re-vamped herself into a sexy goddess for this album release and it appears to have paid off.
The next favourite track is Promiscuous Girl which although I didn't feel was as good as Maneater is still fantastic.
My ultimate favourite song on this CD is track 8 - Say it Right. I am not sure if she intends to release anymore songs off this CD but if she did I would hope this would be the one.
Fantastic CD - Buy it!

I absolutely loved Maneater and Promiscuous really sold it for me! I bought the cd on a whim (from an excellent eBayer!) and haven't taken it out of my car! You can hear the influence oF Timbaland throughout and I really love his style mixed with her vocals.She could be the new female Justin Timberlake! She hasn't forgotten her spanish roots and there are a couple of great spanish style tracks.
On the whole a BRILLIANT album but may not be for you if you prefer her folky stuff. Well worth the money to see if you like the changes!

I bought this CD as a gift for my husband over 12 months ago. What a fantastic album one of those that you can listen to all the way through without having to skip as there really aren't any dodgy tracks!

My whole family love this CD, twin girls were 2 years old when we started playing this - "Maneater" is still their favourite ever song!

An excellent mix of funky dance music and strong love songs (without the cheese) a really good listen that stands the test of time.

Buy it you won't be disappointed!

What a fantastic album ! Great pop from a great female pop singer. This album is quite different to the other songs she has recorded and it works big time ! They mix pop, urban, rap and just about every other genre going...

Great tracks including Maneater & Promiscuous

This has to be one of the best albums of 2006 and certainly her best to date
