Nelly Furtado - Maneater
has any one heard this yet, or seen the video, completly different to her other singles that i heard, but has quite a catchy chorus, did not realise that it was her until i saw her name on the tv with the track

After a few listens it is growing on me. It's very 80's and sounds like 'She's a Maniac' from Flashdance.

I've liked most of Nelly's stuff and this isn't a departure from that! I hope it's be beginning of a new run of good tunes from her.

Have seen the video and it's an attempt to sex her up a bit and make her more hip to a savvy R&B / street generation. It doesn't seem to sit naturally with her - she looks a bit awkward in the video. But the song's not bad - might be a grower with me...

There was a thread last week about this, sorry but I think it's faeces. Shame as she put out some good stuff a few years ago!

Should be a big hit..and she looks hot in the video,never realised it was her until the name came up.As someone else said sounds like Michael Sembello's "Maniac" from Flasdance.

I think it's dreadful and she sounds like she's got a peg on her nose, it'll be a big hit.

When I first turned on the tv and the video was on I thought it was Monica from Friends doing a spoof music video or something. She really looks like her. Songs not up too much, and how many music transitions has she been throught? Sleek pop, folk, r'n'b...

Its a great song.
she totally reinvented herself for the better. in the America she has released the track "Promiscous" which features Timbaland. Its a great track just like "maneater" , and should be a number one in america within a few weeks as its sprinting up the charts! i just wondered why she released promiscous over there and maneater here , maybe shes going to then release promiscous here and maneater over there |

I think who ever wrote the song was watching to Matrix-Reloaded at the time.
Parts of it seems totally lifted off Mona Lisa Overdrive - the freeway chase music |

yup - really like it too - heard her do it on the live lounge on radio 1, which was very good too.
always liked Nelly - saw her the first year we went to glastonbury, and she was great. she was on pretty early in the day, playing to a fairly small crowd (for the pyramid stage), but she did her damdest to get the crowd going. ever since then, if we see a band who don't interact with the crowd, we joke about them not winning any nelly furtado awards for effort! hope she does a few shows, as i think she's be great to see on her home turf as it were.

I love this song, didn't like her other songs but it's got a kind of R'NB feel to it which i like.
