Nelly Furtado Cranks Up The Dance Factor In The Parking Lot

Nelly Furtado has an unrestrained, unencumbered joy for dance harmonies that in all likelihood comes from some mysterious spiritual place. "Parking Lot" a peak hour club thumper lifted from the soon to be on everyone's iPod offering "The Spirit Indestructible" allows the more and more divine all the time Ms. F to let loose with the slinky dance vocals she pretty much has the patent clinched for. Sure it's not overly sexual like "Promiscuous" or beamed down from on high as was the case with "Say It Right" but still this effort has car stereo vibrations written all over it. Don't be surprise if you hear this one rattling the homeboy rides from New York to L.A. and all points in between. Key to the earthquake thunder is a pulsating drum that goes all battering ram on everyone. It commandeers your attention like a migraine only this actually feels splendid to both head and ears. It's Nelly's heart that steals the spotlight as she stirs the pot for what's destined to be more than one parking lot celebration. Thankfully only some scattered keyboard flavoring is added to the mood. That means Nelly owns the show. She knows it from the first stanza and in time the masses at large will be put on notice too. Such a hang loose endeavor with ample payoff.
