"First off im not a kid, I just dont have an account.

Second off I did not pay 33.99 for this cd, I got it for 13.99 at zellers.

Yes, the special edition at zellers for 13.99.

And the cd is not in a blue case, the cd is in a slip in case, which is the blue one. But when you slip the cd out of the cover its the normal red one.

Ok well heres my review.



I was never to fond of Nelly until I heard Maneater. Even though I own both of her past disks. I never really liked her first cd 2 much, and I really disliked the 2nd. But then something happend to our Nelly. She came back with this never before heard sound. I bought Loose the same day I heard Maneater. I loved the cd alot.

Anyways I was walking through the cd section at Zellers when I saw this disk. I looked at the price. 13.99. I really didn't even think about it for a second. I tokk 1 look at the back, and next thing I knew I was at the checkout. This re-made version of Loose contains 4 new songs.

-Let my hair donw

-Somebody to love

-Undercover

-Runaway



And 2 remixes

-All good things

-No Hay Igual



And 3 live songs.

-Crazy (a slower version, but does it better then Knarles Barkley)

-Maneater

-Promiscuous



Overall Im very glad to have bought this disk. I wouldn't pay 33 bucks for it, but if you ever come across it in a store for cheaper. Pick it up. Cause its Limited Edition.



Anyways, I love the disk, Love the bonus songs and remixes.

Live songs are great. So my review is 4.5/5.

And it deserves it!

Best Album Of 2006

03/31/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Wow, how ironoic. Like the other reviewer, i also bought my album at Zellers. I had no idea that it was selling for over $30 on here. I don't plan on opening the album yet. Thanks for letting me know what it looks like! Nelly will be in Toronto for her concert on April 4th, and i'm gonna try and get it autographed. I'll open it up when i get there. Just a quick note, all of the "bonus" tracks have been leaked onto the internet for a long time. Probably since her album first leaked. I heard all of these songs and loved them, but i still decided to buy the album. Honestly, this is the best album of 2006. The lyrics in the songs, the production, and even the way she controls her voice. Nelly has significantly grown as an artist. She teamed up with THE best hip hop producer, Timbaland, and together they made some of the best "alternative" music. Seriously, i don't know exactly which genre to put the album in. Some songs are hip hop, others folk, some pop, and there's even some spanish. You can put the album on and play it track by track. If you are tempted to skip a song, wait, stop, give it a chance, listen to the whole song. When i first heard some of the songs on the album, i hated them right from the start. Then one day i decided to just listen to them all, and guess what, i like 'em all. Say it right is my favourite song on the album, as is All Good Things, and Showtime. Those songs are all very different. I hope (I really, really, really, really, really hope) that Nelly releases Showtime as a single. I really want to see a video for that. I don't know when it happened, but sometime after her last album, Nelly developed an incredible fashion sense. Along with that, she has hired AMAZING directors who capture the essence of each of her songs. The video for All Good Things Come To An End completely fits with the songs. Yes, i know the video makes no sense, but neither does the song! Come on now, dogs whisteling?! lol. But the video was beautifully shot and created a serene vibe. As with the video for Say it Right. It was a very simple video. It had a simple concept. Few sets. Like 3 extras. A bunch of closeup shots. Light synchronized with the lyrics. The video was still very beautiful. I recommend everyone buy this album. The price of $30 is a little steep, but if you can find it cheaper,definetly grab it. It was a fluke i saw it. I was buying dog food and walked buy the cd racks. I had no idea the album came out yet. The second i saw it, i knew i had to support this great artist."
