What do we find out about Nelly Furtado in her new single?

  • April 16, 2012
  • Popjustice

Well for a start here is that new single, 'Big Hoops (Bigger The Better)'.

This is a 'radio rip' — wooo, exciting.

Update: THAT SOUND IS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE. Fear not, Fearne Cotton is playing it on Radio 1 tomorrow morning.

KEY FINDINGS

  • She can go fast
  • She can go slow
  • She can go places nobody else goes
  • She can make very good comeback singles that sound 2012ish (or 2010ish if you take into account the Tinie Tempah-esque 'finale' but you get the idea) without sounding like LMFAO

Some music journ­al­ism for you there, readers.
