Whoa, Nelly!

Amazon.com
Blame it on the bossa nova, but this chick has got soul. By filtering her Portuguese roots through the trip-hop she was weaned on, Nelly Furtado creates a hypnotic form of R&B/alternapop that at times sounds like Fiona Apple, Macy Gray, and Gwen Stefani all rolled into a Portishead song. Cutting her teeth at four Lilith Fair dates before even having a record contract, Furtado seems accelerated far beyond her 21 years. Listen, and you can hear the Portuguese fado tradition, Brazilian beats, flashy urban rhymes--enough snap, crackle, and pop to fill your breakfast bowl. Put your ear closer to the speaker, though, and you can sense that this is the sound of a multicultural young woman finding her own identity through all the pop she's been fed. If you're someone who likes to sing along to soaring vocals or who likes to get hip to a new star before she goes supernova, this is an album to own. --Heidi Sherman

Lucky to have her..........2007-01-12

I definitely think we're lucky to have Nelly in the music industry, as this album clearly proves. There are really no bad songs on this album. Her voice is different and amazing, and there are moments on this CD that just take your breath away.

Standout tracks: Hey Man, On the Radio, Like a Bird, Turn Off the Light, Party

A Spunky & Eccentric Debut........2007-01-03

I fully admit that I have not listened to new types of music in a long while. I'm a fan of 1960's & 70's British Rock & Motown. I did not care much for the music of the 1990's. In "Whoa Nelly," she bares all in her songs. swirling melodies, & open emotions, give her tunes a blend of bossa nova & folk pop. Her restless vocals kept you listening, even though the repititions grew tiresome. She reminds me a little of the alternative music from the 1970's with a 1990's twist. I liked "I'm Like A Bird & Turn Off The Light" the most. She certainly sounds like an artist that has some staying power.

get your own sound, nelly!!!!!.......2006-12-18

Anyone that knows anything about the canadian music scene will tell miss nelly is a phoney. There is another canadian singer out there called "Esthero", and she is the real deal. Nelly copied her unique sound and made a mediocre album for the masses. And to make things worse, nelly has strayed away from this sound altogether and has made a top 40 hip hop album-yuck!!! At least esthero has stayed true to herself and is making music that just doesnt appeal to 'the norm'. But dont fret, esthero has gotten back at nelly. She released the single, "o.g. bitch". Check it out, it is sooooo good.

classic nelly furtado is far better than the new junk.......2006-11-03

nelly furtado's new song is catchy, but it doesn't come near the higher quality of this album. this is when she was still a little folky, but there are beginnings of pop/hip-hop influences in her work. it's a great album!

Whoa, Nelly! is completely an independent album........2006-10-06

After listening to `Loose' I thought I take a couple of steps back and listen to her debut album. I first heard Nelly on the radio with "I'm Like a Bird." It was definitely catchy but never bought the album because anyone can write one catchy song. After hearing this album I see that she has managed to create an album all her own and I also understand why she had accumulated so many fans. The cover of this album is very cute because it has this 70's appeal to it.

The first thing I notice in this album is the unique beats and rhythms. The sheer audacity of the album is really what won me over, though. It doesn't pull its punches, and much of it is clearly felt through her voice even though very nasal at times, is often balanced by her own lower, more soulful back-up. She often attaches a 40's jazz style vibrato to the notes she carries to smooth out her meowing.

Her lyrics vary from cut-&-dry to romantically poetic without being overly sentimental, and her accompaniment is touched by every side of the spectrum. There's everything from classical string arrangements, to metallic guitar riffs, with turn-table scratching, bouncing techno synthesizer, and her cultural, acoustic guitar in- between.

The tracks that I've gathered as my favorites are "Legend," "Well, Well", "My Love Grows Deeper Part 1," "I Will Make U Cry," "Scared of You,"(You liked me till you heard my s*** on the radio)", "Baby Girl," and "Turn off The Light." Each expresses strength and life very well. "I Will Make U Cry" as well as "Party" are very emotional songs, filled the rawest of raw feelings and I also love the instrumental introduction on "Hey Man."

This album did not disappoint me. I was very impressed of the uniqueness and originality of her first album. Rather than try to sound like others, she crafted her own style first time out. Nelly Furtado is an artist who obviously has a lot to say and for us to hear.

Whoa! Nelly Hits It Big!.......2001-04-29

Nelly's new CD, Whoa Nelly, is quality. I purchased this CD because I enjoyed the song I'm Like A Bird. However, when the CD arrived and I listened to its entirety, I thought the CD was even better that I thought. I enjoyed all the songs throughly. Every single song was good. I was impressed that such a young artist could create a CD and every single song lived up to her potential. I immidiatly informed my friends of her and when they bought the CD, however not the import, they thought the same. Nelly Furtado may not be as popular and successful as Britney Spears and Backstreet Boys, she is slowly gaining appricialtion on such channels as MTV, Nickelodeon, and VH1. She is one of the better performers in her pop genre. I was intranced in her vivid beauty of her songs. The import, however a tad bit more expensive, contained a song that was better than the others. I will not go into explenation of the song only because it is fun to have a surprise when you play it, but I will inform that it is much better than the others and that it is worth the extra couple of dollars. I believe she is an inspiration and admired and most definitly imortant asset in the pop genre and I think that if you wisely decide to buy this CD you will have as much appriciation for her as I do, if not more. She is a prized beauty and a prized artist, so please support her, I did. Her CD is worth every penny and more. So please take advantage of this spectacular priced CD, it wont let you down. She is a class of beauty and marvel, and if anything, special. I bought this CD and enjoyed it and I think you will. Wait. I know you will. So please buy it, you wont regret it. Hope you'll like it as much as I did. I know you will.

Blame it on the bossa nova, but this chick has got soul. By filtering her Portuguese roots through the trip-hop she was weaned on, Nelly Furtado creates a hypnotic form of R&B/alternapop that at times sounds like Fiona Apple, Macy Gray, and Gwen Stefani all rolled into a Portishead song. Cutting her teeth at four Lilith Fair dates before even having a record contract, Furtado seems accelerated far beyond her 21 years. Listen, and you can hear the Portuguese fado tradition, Brazilian beats, flashy urban rhymes--enough snap, crackle, and pop to fill your breakfast bowl. Put your ear closer to the speaker, though, and you can sense that this is the sound of a multicultural young woman finding her own identity through all the pop she's been fed. If you're someone who likes to sing along to soaring vocals or who likes to get hip to a new star before she goes supernova, this is an album to own. --Heidi Sherman

Her restless vocals kept you listening, even though the repititions grew tiresome. She reminds me a little of the alternative music from the 1970's with a 1990's twist. I liked "I'm Like A Bird & Turn Off The Light" the most. She certainly sounds like an artist that has some staying power.

get your own sound, nelly!!!!!.......2006-12-18

Anyone that knows anything about the canadian music scene will tell miss nelly is a phoney. There is another canadian singer out there called "Esthero", and she is the real deal. Nelly copied her unique sound and made a mediocre album for the masses. And to make things worse, nelly has strayed away from this sound altogether and has made a top 40 hip hop album-yuck!!! At least esthero has stayed true to herself and is making music that just doesnt appeal to 'the norm'. But dont fret, esthero has gotten back at nelly. She released the single, "o.g. bitch". Check it out, it is sooooo good.

classic nelly furtado is far better than the new junk.......2006-11-03

nelly furtado's new song is catchy, but it doesn't come near the higher quality of this album. this is when she was still a little folky, but there are beginnings of pop/hip-hop influences in her work. it's a great album!

Whoa, Nelly! is completely an independent album........2006-10-06

After listening to `Loose' I thought I take a couple of steps back and listen to her debut album. I first heard Nelly on the radio with "I'm Like a Bird." It was definitely catchy but never bought the album because anyone can write one catchy song. After hearing this album I see that she has managed to create an album all her own and I also understand why she had accumulated so many fans. The cover of this album is very cute because it has this 70's appeal to it.

The first thing I notice in this album is the unique beats and rhythms. The sheer audacity of the album is really what won me over, though. It doesn't pull its punches, and much of it is clearly felt through her voice even though very nasal at times, is often balanced by her own lower, more soulful back-up. She often attaches a 40's jazz style vibrato to the notes she carries to smooth out her meowing.

Her lyrics vary from cut-&-dry to romantically poetic without being overly sentimental, and her accompaniment is touched by every side of the spectrum. There's everything from classical string arrangements, to metallic guitar riffs, with turn-table scratching, bouncing techno synthesizer, and her cultural, acoustic guitar in- between.

The tracks that I've gathered as my favorites are "Legend," "Well, Well", "My Love Grows Deeper Part 1," "I Will Make U Cry," "Scared of You,"(You liked me till you heard my s*** on the radio)", "Baby Girl," and "Turn off The Light." Each expresses strength and life very well. "I Will Make U Cry" as well as "Party" are very emotional songs, filled the rawest of raw feelings and I also love the instrumental introduction on "Hey Man."

This album did not disappoint me. I was very impressed of the uniqueness and originality of her first album. Rather than try to sound like others, she crafted her own style first time out. Nelly Furtado is an artist who obviously has a lot to say and for us to hear.

Blame it on the bossa nova, but this chick has got soul. By filtering her Portuguese roots through the trip-hop she was weaned on, Nelly Furtado creates a hypnotic form of R&B/alternapop that at times sounds like Fiona Apple, Macy Gray, and Gwen Stefani all rolled into a Portishead song. Cutting her teeth at four Lilith Fair dates before even having a record contract, Furtado seems accelerated far beyond her 21 years. Listen, and you can hear the Portuguese fado tradition, Brazilian beats, flashy urban rhymes--enough snap, crackle, and pop to fill your breakfast bowl. Put your ear closer to the speaker, though, and you can sense that this is the sound of a multicultural young woman finding her own identity through all the pop she's been fed. If you're someone who likes to sing along to soaring vocals or who likes to get hip to a new star before she goes supernova, this is an album to own. --Heidi Sherman

Lucky to have her..........2007-01-12

I definitely think we're lucky to have Nelly in the music industry, as this album clearly proves. There are really no bad songs on this album. Her voice is different and amazing, and there are moments on this CD that just take your breath away.

Standout tracks: Hey Man, On the Radio, Like a Bird, Turn Off the Light, Party
