  • she came into the game around the same time as the Bubble gum princesses did> Brittany Spears, Christina Aguilera, Jessica Simpson and Mandy Moore. Nelly Furtado was the most original out of all them.

  • she used to make music...

  • I think that we shloud not say the oler nell the new nelly, It's da same Nelly but with differnt point of view. Her nw cd Mi Plan is very nice, maybe the thing is that it's to Latin n' you don't like. But here sounds damn good.

  • Nelly is so gorgeous!, Love this song.

  • man i remember nelly furtado!! has hse mad any music recently?

  • Yeah but in spanish! :p

  • aww seriously? well i guess should try listening to it. is it a new album? whats the name of it? ill hit up itunes later

  • Me recuerda cuando comenzabamos el 2000 y aqullas epocas. Guapisima como siempre nelly !!!

  • por esta cancion me enamore de nelly furtado

  • oraaaaaaaaaaa apendejadoooooooooooooo

  • me encantasin duda tanto ella como el video y la cancion saludos

  • The song is great, and it deserved a better video, what I mean is that people singing and dancing is ok, but it would have been cool to find something more than that to go along with this wonderful song.

  • I totally agree with you, I heard this song a while back and really liked it. But the video just does not fit with the song at all, a case of when marketing goes wrong.. Something more meaningful would have fit well.

  • the old nelly is back!!! love her <3

  • No , the old nelly isn,t back. It is a clip from 2001.

  • probably nelly's most underrated song....love this, is it a cover though?

  • could you tell me what it's a couver of and who sang it

  • i'm not sure if it's a cover or not :S

  • para mim esta é a melhor musica da nelly furtado!

  • esta cancion me encanta¡¡¡

    begro-brendis-brendita

  • exelente tema me encanta......

  • shhhh chek the tags..

  • obviously she had no style of her own in the first place seeing as its changed so much and she seems to be such an airhead. Look at this song, then look at the stuff of today. I had heaps of respect for her, all the stuff she sang about and how she was different from Brittney Spears, then i heard promiscuous. Bloody Norah, she did it the wrong way round, she shoulda made the club stuff first and then sing about how shes over doing what every one wants her to

  • ay.. SHUT UP. how many records do you have to your name.

    not easy

  • I dont have any, and I dont want any; She's got talent, I just don't get her,

    The End

  • then we look at britney early days and we look at today stuff and is quite the same....right? retard!

  • so do i..

    she was great before timberland and and her "comeback"

  • i agree!!!

  • she had great style now she have timberland style

  • she works with timbaland from the song turn off the light but nut completely..

  • i didnt know about it and i dont even care i mean i like her she s great singer but i rather like old nelly with her style ;)

  • It's funny that people slag her for her new style in this video, considering she's singing about people slagging her for 'being too mainstream.' Nelly has always changed styles, it's what she does, and she's a better artist for it. I think she's still staying true to herself, whatever she does.

  • Cry me a river -___-

  • This version is four minutes longer than the album version, is it a video version? Because If u check in Wikipedia this version doesn't apear.

  • Nelly s2

  • i rem listening to this in HS...seems like so long ago now and i realize how young i really was back then. dang...

  • This reminds me of the days before 9/11, when my future wife (who is now a freshmen in IUP) was in 4th grade at brooks elementary school with my sister going there as well, and when I was in homeschooled back them. It was early 2001 and this was one of the good songs playing on the Music Video Channels. They used to play this every day on those channels and now I disappreciate them since the songs today are CRAP!

  • I havn't heard that song for such a long time!

    Like it much more then her current style. This one is more orginal and inspiring.

  • MISS THIS NELLY

  • i miss this nelly too.. it was before she got prostituted by timbaland and starting to merge with reggaeton crap.

  • i loved nelly so much before she went mainstream pop. i remember loving this album! but i guess she's gotta make money somehow

  • was that megan fox at 2:40?

  • Great!! I loved Nelly Furtado back then, she was sooo original! Awesome new sounds! now she is just another "Timbaland-ish" girl :(

  • she is awesome!

  • ive never heard of this song before and i dont know why! its amazing and i luv nelly furtado ever since im like a bird

  • lmfaoo, i just heard this song recently.

  • Lol,who doesn't like pomegranates?

  • para nelly no hay genero... ella creo un nuevo estilo ... tkm!

  • Nelly RuleZ!!!

  • the first CD I ever owned... I was only eight, man good times (: Sup with the new Nelly? :(

  • yup, good times. whew.having flash backs

  • great memories, great song, great times =)

  • Oh my.. I was only 11 when this came out.

    This brings back lot of memories :)

    I loved this song a lot, even though I couldn't undertand anything.. but now, yeah, it's quite good =)

  • this song is the biz, back then and still is :D

  • i'll always love this song!!!

  • Still love this song !

  • she`s great ok she changed but all the artist have to do it in some pont because they lose fans, so bad is she does not and and bad is she does!!! no way!!! I love you Nelly!!!

  • Boy,isn't this the song!!

  • god i forgot about how much she owns, i feel bad that all her cds are collecting dust...love the gangsta dance

  • HIDEOUS HAIRSTYLE ! ( 1:12 )(It doesn't mean I don't like Nelly)

  • ya the only different between back then and now is that, now shes a MILF lol not like she wasnt one before

  • She's the best....back then and now. Some people need to get a life....stop the jealousy.

  • QUE TEMAZO DIOS MIO 5/5

  • Stay true to myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!but she isn`t doing that anymore........... empty lirycs lastly

  • Comment removed

  • cool song ... amazing girl!

  • excellent video

  • I saw her new video yesterday "manos al aire". Awful song!!! This was original, woah nelly! was original. Her new music is just boring. She sold out, no question. Or at least she became ordinary

  • I love this video. And when video started there is say on russian "Очень популярная песня (very popular song)" О_о

    Sorry for my English

  • i love this song sooo much! its how i started listening to her =)

  • I love Nelly Furtado. i think she's gotten better along the years. and for ppl who think she sold out, ya;; are so wrong. If she made the same kind of music on every cd she makes then that would get boring now wouldnt it?

  • I Love Song

  • she is a sell out the bunch of crap that is making today is awful, her music that she made back in day was more real something that people could relate too, now that she main stream her music is crap like maneater, promiscuous etc. nelly was unique when she came out no doubt about it.

  • Okay those are just those songs. But her songs In God's Hands, All Good Things Come To An End, Afraid, Wait For You, and Showtime are songs ppl can relate to. Just cuz of a few "bad" songs doesn't mean she sold out. It's just trying new things as the times change. Cuz there comes a time for every artist that they have to change their style for at least one CD to test the waters. Like Linkin Park's Minutes To Midnight, totally unlike their other music but it had a great outcome.

  • well, at the time in 2006, her music was the first of it's kind. NOW it is mainstream. And Nelly was younger when this vid came out. She is older now, and she actually has some good songs like Te Busque, In God's Hands, Showtime, Wait and See, All good things Come to An End. People can't stand to see people jazz up a bit....

  • At least the acoustic version of Maneater (from the radio 1 session) kicked ass, plus some other songs from the Loose era not produced by TImbaland (such as Runaway and In God's Hands). Her new Spanish album is good and Timbaland-free, hehe ;D

  • i agree with U!! her songs 2day are good as well but just too commercial... she was original when she started out!

  • how did she sell out? by trying something new and being succesful? I find it funny people says things like she sold out because that attitude proves the point of THIS SONG!! ( which was popular by the way) think about it people!!

  • Just shouldn't have SOLD OUT!!! She's got no talent nowdays!!!

  • This Not A Remake! This is The original song, original video! it was on nelly furtados first record. and her image has not changed that much.. she was a trip hopper from canada. Total Vancouver Chick..

  • that bitch got a hell of a hand style. i need to get like that

  • i like the song, i dont think there is a remake i've only ever saw this one (if there is, its pretty illusive). Turn off the light has a couple versions that i know of. also i cant hear the similiarity between timberlake and furtado. if its a bash at furtado...this song was written and released before timberlakes cry me a river release.

  • Cool song and no, it doesn't sound like "cry me a river".

  • If you listen REALLY carefully to the beat in the song, you'll find it does :-)

  • i remember de days when i was in high school every time i hear this song. Good song and beautiful singer Nelly furtado

  • i like you rite haha your pretty :)

  • ugh i hate when artist's remake their videos, like natasha beddingfield's 'these words', or make videos for their older songs now. nelly's image has changed so much, it really makes me sad :(

  • is this video a remake?

  • no, is the original vid

  • this video was a remake? Do you know where I can find the original one? I've been trying to look for it but I can't find it here on you tube. Do you know where I could?

  • Qué buena rola!!!

  • is it just me, or does this song sound a little similar to justin timberlakes 'cry me a river'

  • It has the same beat, but the melodies are different....

  • she looks like Vanessa from Gossip Girl in this...well here hair does...Btw...Luv the songggg

  • you got to keep in mind when this vidoe came out. o1' so it has the weird ass cloths of the 90's and music of the early 00's. i lik this music much better than wat we hav today. its was more then doin drive buy and getn som girl pregos.

  • I doubt that. Think hard on that one. <_<

  • funky diva!

  • This chick rocks!

  • what she said for not to said shit?

  • 4:05-4:09 <3

  • What do you mean this song? If somebody know it, answer me please, thank you very much

  • i love the chorus, it's so catchy :)

    it makes you want to get up and sing

  • I mean 00:52 sorry

  • I kinna miss the old Nelly ,

    I mean , she looked so happy with herself ! ( look at her at 00:53 .. lol )

    But in the other hand I dont caus look at 2:11 .. hehe thats very original for outfit :)

  • I actually know Kinnie Starr. She told me about this video, it was a long time ago though. Somebody, I think Nelly, or someone was doing really funny stuff off camera, faces etc. and really good ones. She said that everyone was losing it. She got the mic from(I don't know his name) from Swollen Members. He could not stop laughing. I think Kinnie told me there was only 3 takes. This was the only one, everyone was not in tears laughing.

  • so many memories from my childhood

    i listened to this song a lot when i was 10 years old

  • me too! C=

  • this is my fav song from nelly!! :D

  • I agree with manugerino but you're picking on her when she has like 2 or 3 songs out about that kind of stuff.

    Listen her stuff is catchy and it sells ..so wtf does it matter just be happy she made it big (:

  • i think its funny that "swollen members" just happened to be in the park right before she got on stage lol

  • She was much better than then now. So so see that someone was once talking about be true to herself and now sings about bodies and how she's pretty dawm sexy, like if someone like cared. Like if this kind of music would make any difference at all.

    I'm mean, once she was Nelly Furtado, girl with a brain, now she's what? A skinny lady shaking her boody? NICE IMPROOOOOVEMENT! =D

  • exactly.

  • I love this song!

  • I LOVE THIS VID 7 SONG!!!!!!!!!

  • Things just go bad, before they become Greater!

  • I don't really like thi song, and she looks better now than then! Well, she's probably a little thiner there, but she looks prettier now!

  • thats whats wrong with people today, they care more about how somebody looks and the more poppier sounds of today. its complete bullshit.

  • If she was serious about her music, she wouldn't be making the mainstream dance crap she is now....although I give her credit for doing Broken Strings, that's closer to what she was doing before than the crap she does now.

  • just because she made more accessible songs doesn't mean she isn't serious about her music. What I love about Nelly is that she's very different with each album. and Like this song for example, it's as pop as pop gets. Nelly F. is probably one of those artists that are actually serious about the quality of her music. you might not admit it but you probably listen to Maneater all the time. Also, it's not fair to just designate an artist with a single genre because that's not fair. IMO.

  • Stay True To MYSELF!!! MYSELF!!! MYSELF!!!! one luv Nelly!!!

  • cool song!

  • love this song.

    lol everytime i say happy birthday to myself i say it to nelly and britney too.

  • what other song has a beat like this

  • o ya frankie j's song

  • I didnt know her videos were so good.

    Check my musical videos.

  • i like this 1 i almost forgot about it =)

  • i love this one 2 lol .

  • Great song. It impresses me.

    Check my original songs.

  • good song wierd vid

  • DAMN!!! SHES FINE!!!!!!!

  • I feel so nostalgic when I hear this song!

  • Nelly Girll Good, Music good, Good. I love The nelly

  • cool!

  • nelly has to pay a mortgage just like everyone else when she tried stuff like this, or songs like all good things come to an end it didnt sell... too bad i like this better

  • She made money off these songs. Honestly, any musician who is in it for the money shouldn't be in to begin with. Music is about being true to you and reflecting the to other people. She sold out. Plain and simple. I was so disappointed when Maneater came out.

  • well thats the goal of every artist well 2 things Riches an or Lovers ..its the basic principal of the ID

  • I disagree. As an aspiring musician, I could never make music I didn't want to or love just b/c it'll get me more money....it's about credibility to me. Nelly lost it when she came out with her Maneater album.

  • No she didn't. She expanded her style with that album. She probably didn't even think it would be successful after her previous album flopped.

  • welcome to the real world, where people got bills to pay.

  • Comment removed

  • I think the music she does now is cool, but I also liked her old stuff like this one!

  • ahh i remember those days

    old and good times

  • aaa que buen ritmo aun que la verdad la letra no me gusta jejeeje

  • nelly you are da bomb!!

  • wtf does soulja boy and all of this sh!t you put has to do with nelly furtado's vid?? I mean, really. . .

  • the ending to this is the best...."myself...myself..r u feeling me, r u feeling me now"...like the angst of a teen not listened to or something...very moving...

  • Aw, she looks so beautiful in the beginning... just lovely... and I love this song !!!

  • hey, Jessie 245, what is stereotypical hip-hop? is eminem's is? is 50 cent's is? and dre or tupac or anyone's hip-hop?

  • eminem and fifty and dre and tupac are rappers. huge difference between hip hop and rap. hip hop these days is like missy elliot, kanye west, soulja boy, rihanna etc etc.

  • souja boy is not hip-hop.

    soulja boy is repetitive and unoriginal.

    though i'll agree with Missy Elliot and Kanye.

  • <3 it!

  • omg!I swear I use 2 luv this song I use 2 watch videos everyday jus 2 catch on. I luved Nelly Furtado bk then. I remember wen she first came out she was gr8t then and still is. Brings bk memories...
