Loose is the third studio album by
Canadian singer-songwriter Nelly Furtado,
released on 7 June 2006, by Geffen Records and Mosley Music Group.
Following the release of Furtado's second album, Folklore (2003) through DreamWorks Records,
it was announced that Universal Music Group would acquire DreamWorks Records, the latter was folded into the Interscope
Geffen A&M umbrella where Furtado would release
any new music. Recording sessions for the album took place from 2005 to 2006. Timbaland and his
protégé Danja produced the bulk of the album, which incorporates influences of dance, R&B, and hip-hop. The album explores the theme of
female sexuality and has been described as introspective.
Overall,
the record was seen as critically and commercially successful. It
reached high charts positions
across the world, including number one in ten countries, and according to an
August 2009 press release, it had sold more than 10 million copies worldwide, making
it one of the best selling albums of the 2000s. However, the album received
criticism because of the sexual image Furtado adopted for the recording, as
some critics felt it was a ploy to sell more records. The album
was heavily promoted, released in several editions and supported by the Get Loose Tour, which
is the subject of the concert DVD Loose: The Concert.
Loose debuted at number one, making it Furtado's first album to top the chart
along with eight singles were released from the album, including the US
number-one singles "Promiscuous"
and "Say It Right",
which received Grammy Award nominations
for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance,
respectively. Other successful singles include the UK number-one single "Maneater"
and the European number one single "All Good
Things (Come to an End)".
Ah, ah, ah
Honestly, what will
become of me?
Don't like reality
It's way too clear to me
But really, life is dandy
We are what we don't see
We miss everything daydreaming
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?
Come to an end, come to an
Why do all good things come to an end?
Come to an end, come to an
Why do all good things come to an end?
Traveling, I only
stop at exits
Wondering if I'll stay (stay)
Young and restless
Living this way, I stress less
I want to pull away when the dream dies
The pain sets in, and I don't cry
I only feel gravity, and I wonder why
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?
Come to an end, come to an
Why do all good things come to an
Come to an end, come to an
Why do all good things come to an
Well, the dogs were
whistling a new tune
Barking at the new moon
Hoping it would come soon, so that they could
Dogs were whistling a new tune
Barking at the new moon
Hoping it would come soon, so that they could
Die, die, die, die
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?
Come to an end, come to an
Why do all good things come to an
Come to an end, come to an
Why do all good things come to an
Well, the dogs were
barking at the new moon
Whistling a new tune
Hoping it would come soon
And the sun was wondering if it should
Stay away for a day
'Til the feeling went away
And the sky was falling
And the clouds were dropping
And the rain forgot how to bring salvation
The dogs were barking at the new moon
Whistling a new tune
Hoping it would come soon
So that they could die.
