Nelly Furtado chats to I Like Music
Nelly Furtado releases her hot new single, All Good Things on November 27th, co-written with Coldplay’s Chris Martin. The track is taken from Nelly’s smash album ‘Loose’ which has already gone platinum in both the UK and US and is looking set to become one of the critics choice albums of the year.
I Like Music caught up with Nelly Furtado to talk about jamming in the studio with Chris and Timbaland, being musically promiscuous and songwriting.
I like music because… music is love. It’s the closest thing to an intimate relationship with a human being. When you hear a great song there’s a level of intimacy to it and specialness that you can’t really get anywhere else. It’s of another world.”
Nelly Furtado
ILM: Your gloriously good new single, All Good Things is out on November 27th here in the UK. Chris Martin co-wrote it with you and Timbaland and I heard they were both like little kids about meeting each other? What was it like working with Chris, because he’s obviously amazing?
NELLY: We’d already known each other from a while back from touring the UK festival circuit over the years, and I bumped into him at the MTV Music Awards in Miami, where I was recording with Timbaland. And he was thrilled to hear I was working with Tim, because he’s a big fan. Ironically, that whole week, Tim had spent hours listening to Coldplay in the studio at full blast on the stereo, so it was like ‘aha!’ one of those moments. It was just kind of meant to be. He came by the studio and we jammed and jammed. He’s just really prolific. I really think he’s one of the best songwriters of my generation definitely. He just comes up with stuff off the top of his head. Very soulful too, he’s very funky. He was bringing out sides of him I didn’t know existed in the studio with Tim. At the end of the night he had to go, because he had a gig next day, and I said, ‘Why do all good jams come to an end?’ and that’s how the whole song title came about.
