Brilliant, 2 Jun 2006
I thought Nelly Furtado's first album Whoa Nelly! was really good and after Folklore it seems she is back on form. Maneater is a really catchy track with an amazing tune. I love this song!

A Real Change In Direction!, 3 Jun 2006
I was so amazed when I heard this track by Nelly Furtado as it is so much different when compared to her older material.
This has to be, without a doubt, the best single of 2006 so far as its just so catchy.
This, hopefully should be her first UK number 1!

Dance, Party And Get Crazy!, 20 Nov 2006
As Nelly Furtado causes a stir of mixed reactions, it is apparent her dance songs are causing a storm in the clubs, parties, and bars. She has undeniably grown as a music artist. MANEATER is from Nelly's album LOOSE and is backed up with the Josh Desi Remix, Maneater Video, and non-album exclusive cover song CRAZY.
MANEATER Radio Version (3:17) has plenty of bass, synthesizers, percussion, vocals, and catchy dance hooks. The varying beats with sizzling pounding swirls, and drums make this great to listen to. Aside the musical sounds, the words to the song will be sure to make it even more worthwhile and enjoyable. Apparently, the song is about a lover who has made her guy go crazy by having him spend too much, work like crazy, and drive him into madness. The song ends with "You wish you never ever met her at all."
CRAZY Radio 1 Live Lounge Session (3:23) is the exclusive cover version of Gnarls Barkley's song titled CRAZY. Nelly sings this in a nice vocal pitch range accompanied by additional background vocals, guitar, and much mellow sounding tones. The club sounds are not present nor are there techno/trance tempos. This has the laid back lounge style great to let loose before going wild on the dance floor or great for unwinding.
MANEATER Josh Desi Remix (4:24) begins with a Middle Eastern tribal style and Nelly singing "You wish you never met her at all [x3]" There are a lot of Spanish style hints in sound, singing and instruments. Unlike the radio version, this has faster beats, more rapid drums, Latin flairs, and vast Mid-Eastern styles. Not quite the club techno trance moods yet more in the dance party sensations!
The MANEATER VIDEO is approximately 5 minutes long. It starts off with Nelly looking for her dog who has strayed away chasing a female dog. As she begins her search she decides to go down some stairways that lead to a room filled with people of all cultures. When she gets there all eyes are on her. Next, there is a man who stares at her and his eyes look *wild* like her dogs. Nelly starts to go crazy dancing, shaking her body to the beats and telling the crowd to get on their knees. Then the crowds go out of their minds moving to the beats and enjoying themselves. In between these scenes there are clips of Nelly dancing behind some flames looking in fabulous shape. This is an excellent video to enjoy for the party atmosphere. This will definitely get you in the mood to dance, party, or just feel energized!
If you are looking for variety, dance club sounds, tribal Latin flairs with Middle Eastern hints and laid back lounge styles then this will be a phenomenal purchase! Feel the party sensations, get into the mood, or enjoy the feeling!
