She is Canadian with Portuguese parents but has a thing about Latin american languages, she is supposedly planning to release an album completely in Spanish for the Latin American (excluding Brazil) audience.
@SleepyBunnnyMakeup umm no there not lol a few verbs abd words are the same but there rest is not. I took French from gr. 3-12 and then in highschool I took Spanish for three years and i used to watch Portuguese and Spanish soap operas and it's completely different I could only understand like two or three words in Portuguese. It's like comparing Italian and French yeah similar but not the same language. There just in the same Roman language group.
Nelly furtado rules! Oh and if anyone can make No Hay Igual with pronounciation and translation and send it to me I will do whatever they want in return! Thankyou and Nelly furtado is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!:):):):)
What an idiot whoever said Portugal is in South America. I am PORTUGUESE not BRAZILIAN. MY FAMILY IS FROM PORTUGAL, WHICH IS NEXT TO SPAIN IN EUROPE...WOW. BRAZILIAN AND PORTUGUESE ARE TWO DIFFERENT PEOPLE. NELLY IS PORTUGUESSSEEEE!!! =)
@pinhod66 i disagree yes portugal is in europe and brasil in south america....but i believe they are the same ppeople even tho one is european and one is south american i am brasilian but i believe us to be one of the same people...its like Spain and the other spanish speaking countries even tho the language may vary alittle...they are considered all hispanic makin them one big together spanish speakin nation ya know
Oh, you all are very lucky, that today came there walking Nelly Furtado encyclopedia(O.K.not exactly encyclopedia, I had just report about her to music at scool yesterday)! She were growing on the suburb of Victoria in Canadian province called British Columbia. Childrens in her scool were making fun from her strange-smelling sandwitches here. Then she left to Toronto. But you are true, psycho.
She was born in portugal, therefore it is Portuguese, of there there come his(her,your) features and her, color of skin alone that now lives in Canada; the Spanish it speaks good but she is necessary to improve her accent (and a Spanish says it)..perdonar mi tan malo ingles xD
I'm not sure where exactly was she born in Canada (Vancouver I think)but she is Portuguese-Canadian (cause of her parents are portuguese).The lirics of the song is in spanish and yes you could say it makes sense (yo tambien hablo espa~nol)but still the meaning is pretty awkward to me plus the rythm reminds of that other song.( I think it's called maneatter)
ella nació en portugal, por lo tanto es portuguesa, de ahí vienen sus rasgos y su color de piel solo que ahora vive en Canadá;el Español lo habla bien pero le hace falta mejorar su acento (y lo dice un español)
no, she is not fluent in spanish....I've never seen an interview with her in spanish, she always needs someone to transalte for her.
And with the lyrics on this song...um, do you speak fluent spanish? if you do, how does "loco para ti" make sense?..it would have to be "loca por ti"...anyways, that's just one example...I just don't want people to get the wrong idea and think she can speak spanish....cuz she DOES NOT.
besides that, the song is great and she sounds awesome as always! :)
This album is complete genre shift for her I think, but damn if she doesn't make it amazing and addicting, as usual.

Just to clarify, this song is in Spanish not in portugues. "No hay igual" means "There is not equal".
Although Nelly is Canadian-born of Brazilian descendant
she speaks spanish with a little of an accent, but it is understandable. But regardless of what languages she speaks she is very talented... and hot.
