Night Is Young
You have to wonder how they're gonna go about putting Nelly Furtado's Best Of together. Will label bigwigs pretend her wonderful first two albums Whoa! Nelly and Folklore never happened, rather than have songs like the timid 'I'm Like A Bird' appear side by side with stomping R&B hits 'Maneater' and 'Say It Right' on the track listing? And what about 2009's Spanish outing Mi Plan? It seems that there's just too many facets to Ms. Furtado's career to smush together onto one LP. For my money 'Night Is Young', one of three new songs recorded for The Best Of Nelly Furtado, is the Canadian crooner at her worst - unadventurous and diluted with plodding hip hop beats.
