内容紹介
In preparation for her new album, Loose, NELLY FURTADO tried out collaborations with a who's who of producers, and she tried to create a music more of the body than the mind. A prime example of the latter is first single "PROMISCUOUS," a duet with Loose producer TIMBALAND, known far and wide for his groundbreaking work with, among others, MISSY ELLIOTT, JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE and AALIYAH.
It stands to reason that gold and multiplatinum certifications (for 2003's Folklore and 2000's Whoa, Nelly!, respectively), a pair of Top 10 singles ("I'm Like a Bird" and "Turn Off the Light"), and a Grammy Award (for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance), to name just a few accomplishments, would afford a certain level of confidence. But nothing has inspired Furtado to throw caution to the wind more than motherhood. "Motherhood makes you fearless," she says. "The album is very youthful-sounding," Furtado continues, "and I think that's partly due to the presence of this two-year-old in my life. I was with her all day every day and then I'd go to the studio at night, and I think that translated into a playful energy I feel onstage but that hasn't really been heard on my records."
Starting with her longtime production team of Track & Field, she also knew she wanted to check out a variety of producers. "Working with new producers," she hazards, "is like trying on new clothes - you never know what you look good in until you try it on. And sometimes they will see something in you that neither you nor anyone else could see." So she traveled with her daughter from Toronto to London to work with NELLEE HOOPER; to Los Angeles to work with LESTER MENDEZ (who produced, "Te Busque," her moving duet with JUANES) and RICK NOWELS (co-writer and producer of the gorgeous ballad "In God's Hands"); and to Miami to work with PHARRELL WILLIAMS and SCOTT STORCH and finally, TIMBALAND.
Indeed, the raw, lighting-in-a-bottle spontaneity of the collaborative process is at the heart of Loose. "This record shows who I am in a jam-type environment, where I really feel the excitement of the creativity flowing," Furtado reveals. "It's who I am at my most artistic. I live for that, and I'm very grateful to be able to share it."
Amazonレビュー
ネリー・ファータド『Loose』にまつわる熱狂ぶりは、音がレコーディングされる前から始まっていた。ヒップホップの達人、伝説のティンバランド(ミッシー・エリオット、ジェイ・Z、ジャスティン・ティンバーレイク)が共同プロデューサーとして参加すると告知されたからだ。ファンの頭に浮かんだ質問はこれだった。ネリーはポップ・ミュージックだけではなく、ポルトガルのルーツからもインスピレーションを得るアーティスト。その彼女をヒップホップの中心人物がプロデュースするとどう影響するだろう? 一聴してわかるように『Loose』はその過程でさまざまなスタイルを取り入れているが、驚くべきことに、もっとも大きな影響は80年代のエレクトロニカとラテン系のポップだった。本作はこれまでのファータドのCDとは大幅に異なっている。その事実は1曲目、ニュウェイヴの影響がある「Afraid」から顕著だ。冒頭のトラックとして強い印象を残すこの曲はアップテンポなワン、ツー、スリーのパンチで始まり、伝播していくダンス・フロアのビートを刻んでいる。2曲目の「Maneater」も、極上のキャッチーさを証明しているが、韻とキーボードにやりすぎの感があり、まるでエレクトロクラッシュのアーティスト、ピーチズの木からもいだようなサウンドで、オリジナリティがない。完璧な夏のポップ・ソングが続き、大ヒットとなった「Promiscuous」はいきいきとしたデュエットで、ファータドとティンバランドのクレバーなインタープレイをフィーチャーしている。この点では、『Loose』はマイアミの影響を受けたR&B、ラテン・ポップ、レゲエトン(それぞれ「Showtime」、「Te Busque」、「No Hay Igual」)、そして前述の80年代のノリ(「Glow」、「Do It」)の間で振り子のように揺れている。ファンは「Say It Right」、「In God's Hands」のファータドのボーカルが最高だと感じることだろう。本作でもっとも叙情的な2曲だ。

クリエイティビティの高さに感服。
まだまだ目が離せません。
you got servedを見ている人はわかると思いますがオープニングのdanceの曲を歌っている人です。(tinbalandがね)
このアルバムからシングルカットされたPromiscuousは
何週連続の1位なんでしょうか?余裕で5週連続はいっていると思います。(best hit USA調べw)
売れてる理由は聞けばわかります。
nellyの勢いはまだまだとまりません。
この曲は、メロディーが美しい一方、アレンジもよく、Timbalandの才能がきらきら煌めいているように思える名曲。また、ビデオも切れのあるダンス・シーンがすばらしい。
あまり予備知識なく買ったのだが、「Promiscuous」とか「Maneater」とかキャッチーな曲もある。買ってよかったというのが正直な印象。

Some believe the new, slightly (yes, I said slightly) more commercial direction on "Loose" is purely a calculated effort against the mediocre response to "Folklore" (which was most likely due entirely to her previous label shutting down and not promoting it properly). Others, who I think of as the more understanding fans, see it as natural since Furtado has incorporated hip-hop's traits into her music since day one. Bearing this in mind, how can it be any real surprise that she would pair up with uber-producer Timbaland and create the hottest record of the year?
As many already know, Timbaland is behind the majority of the production here, his vocals even featured on the massive US hit, "Promiscuous". This song is obviously the album's radio-on-fire hit which, while proving fantastic for album sales, has worried some fans about Furtado's direction. Luckily for those fans, the album has quite the pot of styles to choose from, no matter how you like your Nelly cooked! In fact, the music varies so wildly, it would be a bit of a mess if not for the great production tying it together. And in a world where most albums sound like one song on repeat, this is certainly a breath of eclectic fresh air. "Loose" covers trip-hop, dance club music, hip-hop, electro-pop, laid-back 6/8 time ballads, reggaeton, 80's pop, world music, and strummy folk. Each of these styles is very well-executed and injected with the utmost energy and love, as is always the case with Furtado.
Within this musical melting-pot, my favorite track at the moment is "Maneater", already a massive hit in Europe, and certainly destined to be Furtado's next US hit. During the song's creation, the studio speakers (turned up very loudly) even started smoking and caught fire! This heat is certainly felt throughout the song, and the vocal harmonies/layering in the chorus are guaranteed to melt you if you haven't already. Other favorites are "Glow" and "Say It Right", though I hold most of the songs in nearly equal regard, which is very rare.
So is this album an obvious attempt at commercial success or the sound of Nelly Furtado really getting loose and doing what comes natural? Every artist has a need for success and money. Otherwise, they're in serious need of a dayjob. Can anyone really blame an artist for trying their hardest to truly succeed (i.e. sell records and make money) in one of the most difficult and conniving industries, shifting their style toward a set of standards? In Nelly's case, if she has done this, she has still done so with an honestly fun, inspired, and ambitious project, as one listen to "Loose" clearly reveals. Regardless of intent, "Loose" is a great record that succeeds in whatever goals it may have. Beware...I'm certain that any "fan" who says they don't like any of "Loose" probably hasn't heard it in its entirety. There's plenty of classic Furtado here for fans of any of her previous work. And of course there's plenty here for new fans, which is just as it should be.
So, how did Nelly's experiment work out? Pretty good, I say. We hear hip-hop dance tracks, ranging from the lighter ("Afraid", "Do It"), which have a Britney/Gwen Stefani sound, to the harder ("Maneater", "Glow"), which are closer to Justin T's music. "Promiscuous" fits into this category also, with Nelly and Timbaland trading lines like "Promiscuous girl, U know what I want, and I got what U need/Promiscuous boy, let's get 2 the point". Hint: they are not discussing bus tickets. Foreign influences spark "No Hay Igual" (Spanish, very rhythmic), "Te Busque" (a ballad in 2 versions, one mostly Spanish, one with more English), and "Wait For You" (MidEast-inflected). "Showtime" and "In God's Hands" are soft ballads with good melodies. Two of the best tracks are "Say It Right", an excellent pop radio hit, and "All Good Things", which has a chorus that calls to mind Madonna's "This Used To Be My Playground".
I guess it all depends on what you want from an artist. I'm sure many of Jewel's fans did not like her dance album, and I've read that many consider "Loose" a selling-out on Nelly's part. But, I happen to like the Madonna/Britney/Stefani brand of pop music, and for me, this CD has that quality along with enough varied influences to make it interesting. And Nelly's vocal traits - melodious voice, warmth, humor - are still evident, although the resulting album is certainly different from her previous ones.
Die große Überraschung war ja gleich mal "Afraid": Schnelle, anspruchsvolle Texte voller Wortwitz wo man HINHÖREN MUß, weit weg vom "ich find englisch sprechen voll cool"-dammits-auch-jeder-versteht-in-Zeitlupen-Englisch des Mainstreams.
Und so geht das immer weiter! "Maneater" - die direkte Ansprache passt eigentlich auch nicht zu Nelly aber hey - bei dem Cover! Und dann ein weiterer Kracher "Promiscuous". Nelly kann RAPPEN! RAPPEN! Gut, sie ist kein Eminem, aber hey, guter englischer Sprechgesang, bei dem man gelegentlich im Englisch-Deutsch-Lexikon nachschlagen muß, das hab ich denn von einer Protugiesin nicht erwartet. Nicht mal Sudo (so heißt doch der mit der komischen Maske?!?) kann rappen, und der NENNT sich Rapper!
Da wirken Glow und Showtime schon als erfrischend langweilige Runterkühler - nur um dann mit "No Hay Igual" wieder Gas zu geben! Te Busque - das obligatorische, lateinamerikanische Duett mit Juanez wie eine Reise in einen gaaaaaaanz andere Welt - leitet einen langsamen calm down ein, der mit "All good things (come to an end)" seinen -ja, wie sagt man das? - passiven Höhepunkt erlebt. Ein tiefer Seufzer - und der Finger wandert wieder zur Play-Taste. Nochmal Afraid, nochmal Promiscuous, nochmal No hai Igual und alle anderen.
Nochmal, nochmal, nochmal, immer wieder! Und meine Frau, wegen der wir die CD gekauft haben, zeigt mir inzwischen den Vogel!
