Maneater!
Nelly Furtado - Maneater
No no, not Hall & Oates... Nelly Furtado!
There are at least four things I love about this song/video:
1) I love how they mic'd up the drum kit for this track. It's sounds as if the levels are up way too high and the mics were too close to the drums - but it sounds exquisite IMO.
2) Nelly does this shoulder-shimmy dance move in the video that is bloody awesome - it is during the "maneater chorus" part. Not only does it look nice it is FUN to do. Check it out.
3) The video has a dog in it. Dogs make everything better.
4) The melody of this track is pretty tight as well. The chorus tune and dance bit is the best part of the song.

I like the album, it's not to bad, I love the track Say it right!!
"Say It Right"
In the day
In the night
Say it right
Say it all
You either got it
Or you don't
You either stand or you fall
When your will is broken
When it slips from your hand
When there's no time for joking
There's a hole in the plan
Oh you don't mean nothing at all to me
No you don't mean nothing at all to me
But you got what it takes to set me free
Oh you could mean everything to me
I can't say that I'm not lost and at fault
I can't say that I don't love the light and the dark
I can't say that I don't know that I am alive
And all of what I feel I could show
You tonight you tonight
Oh you don't mean nothing at all to me
No you don't mean nothing at all to me
But you got what it takes to set me free
Oh you could mean everything to me
From my hands I could give you
Something that I made
From my mouth I could sing you another brick that I laid
From my body I could show you a place God knows
You should know the space is holy
Do you really want to go?

I would prefer if the video for the song was actually you standing up on top of a chair at the madison doing the dance yourself RJ.

Did the MuchMusic countdown have anything to do with this new found fondness of maneater?

OMG I am soo loving this track right now!
On New Years Day at Zone Sydney Blu dropped a wicked electro remix of this track. Boy I haven't danced that hard in I don't know how long.
If anybody know's the name of the remix I'd really really appreciate it.
