I was listening to a local radio station, this morning. There was a live performer, singing a song called "Try", off her latest album. It was simultaneously beautiful, bare, and bluesy without the syruppy sickness I'm accustomed to with lots of romantic/love songs these days. But what amazed me was when I heard who the performer was: Nelly Furtado.

That's right. She of the colorful jeans video with terrible music.

This song was seriously good. Now we'll see if the production kills the song quality when the album comes out.
