Well, regardless of how people judge her tarted-up image—hot? sad? who?—this is, by far, Furtado’s most engaging record. Sure, it sounds like every other Timbaland LP—he co-produced the album and raps on “Promiscuous”—but that’s still pretty solid, and miles more palatable than that nattering “I’m Like a Bird” tripe. But in defence of the earnest, pre-hoochie Furtado, her last LP, Folklore, struck a promising chord under the influence of her Portuguese roots. Too bad it was half-baked, and didn’t sell.
