Nelly Furtado - Forca Single And Tour Dates

Nelly Furtado released her new single "Forca" on July 12th - taken from her latest album FOLKLORE and the official song of Euro 2004. Nelly performed the song in Lisbon at the final. You can watch the video below.

Nelly Furtado said of UEFA's decision to choose her song as the musical focus of the tournament "I am delighted and thrilled that "Força" has been chosen as the Official Song of UEFA EURO 2004, as I am really looking forward to going back to Portugal to perform it. I wrote it with the passion the Portuguese people have for football in mind and I hope this comes through in the music and lyrics." Maybe it was Forca which helped Portugal into the final with Greece!

"Força", which is Portuguese street slang for "keep going" is about sport, especially football and the words "the beautiful game" are part of the lyrics . It describes how football exhilarates you with passion. It is a happy song, a kind of football anthem with a lot of energy in the chorus.

Nelly will be performing her first shows in the UK since 2001. She plays the following:
June 25th - Glastonbury, Pyramid Stage
26th - Manchester, Apollo
27th - Edinburgh, Usher Hall
28th - London, Hammersmith Apollo
30th - Birmingham, NIA

FORCA single released 12th July 2004
