Nelly Furtado - Whoa Nelly album cover | |||||||||||||||
Whoa, Nelly! is the debut album by Canadian singer-songwriter Nelly Furtado, released by DreamWorks Records in North America on October 24, 2000. Slant magazine called it "a delightful and refreshing antidote to the army of 'pop princesses' and rap-metal bands that had taken over popular music at the turn of the millennium". The sound of the album was strongly influenced by musicians who had traversed cultures and "the challenge of making heartfelt, emotional music that's upbeat and hopeful".
It peaked at number twenty-four on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart and produced three international singles: "I'm like a Bird", "Turn off the Light", and "...On the Radio (Remember the Days)". "Party's Just Begun (Again)" was a club-only single released exclusively in the U.S. before the album's availability in stores, and it was included on the soundtrack of the 1999 film Brokedown Palace. When "Party's Just Begun (Again)" was released, Nelly's label was unsure what kind of genre to market her as. They eventually remixed "Party's Just Begun (Again)" and included it upon this album as "Party". The DreamWorks label released "Trynna Finda Way" as the fourth single in Mexico and South America, a radio remix of "Hey, Man!" in the UK and Germany, and "Legend" in South Africa. The album spent seventy-eight weeks on the Billboard 200. After the release of the album, Furtado headlined the Burn in the Spotlight tour and appeared on Moby's Area:One tour. According to Maclean's magazine, Whoa, Nelly! had sold five million copies worldwide as of August 2006. Track listing: 1. "Hey, Man!" (Nelly Furtado) – 4:10 2.
