Negative Positive
Title: Likable but not perfect
Review: The reason to buy this is because of "Promiscuous," the song of summer. But Loose, the third album from eclectic singer-songwriter Nelly Furtado, doesn't center solely around that instant first single. "Wait For You" and "Maneater" are likable enough (though not nearly as listenable as the aforementioned "Promiscuous") and cover the same concept of being addictive club-ready Hip Hop pop. The most Whoa, Nelly!-sounding track here is "All Good Things" with its introspective lyrics, great performance by Nelly and use of multi-interesting instruments. It's not perfect, but it's definitely worth listening to. Casual listeners will eat this up, but dedicated fans of the "I'm Like a Bird" Furtado will call her a sell-out (which isn't true) and fly away themselves.
Is the review positive or negative?
