Customer Reviews for Folklore
Favorite album of all time
Rating:
Let me begin by saying...if you are a new fan of Nelly[Loose era and beyond] then this may not be what you want. On the other hand if you loved Whoa Nelly and want more of Nelly's collection of appropriately placed words and phrases then this is your new lover. Slow, mellow and ballad-like. Nelly showcases her story-telling abilities here and if you really sit down and listen to these songs you'll grow to love them. Picture Perfect[favorite], Build You Up and Childhood Dreams are among my most played on this album. My favortie album ever so far. I could go on for days probably, but i'll stop now. Haha

Not so fast

I loved Nelly Furtado on the "Loose" CD and I love her in concert. I was impressed with the many positive reviews on here of her CD "Folklore."
It was an easy decision to get it after all the positivity. HOWEVER, after listening to it many times it has not grown on me and I really am disappointed in it. I do not see how so many loved it. Not me, I wish I had of never had bought it.
Editorial Reviews for Folklore Audio Cd

On her second album, Nelly Furtado takes a hard left turn. The colorful but incomplete fusion of her debut, Whoa, Nelly!, gives way on the tellingly titled Folklore to an approach that lets in some acoustic sounds that take the music in an entirely different, richer direction. At times sounding like a dead ringer for singer-writer Sam Phillips (whose work colors each episode of the TV series "Gilmore Girls"), Furtado aims for more rock-oriented ground without losing the Brazilian influences that are so much a part of her identity. Her voice and tunes are strong, and both words and music paint a young woman still very much in movement, change, flux. It?s an intriguing sound, and one that thoughtful listeners will cherish. --Rickey Wright
