Nelly Kim Furtado is a Canadian singer and songwriter. Furtado has sold over 40 million records worldwide, making her one of the most successful Canadian artists.

The album spawned four successful number-one singles worldwide; Promiscuous, Maneater, Say It Right and All Good Things (Come to an End).
