Nelly Furtado - In God's Hands
[Geffen]

Nelly’s Furtado's third album ‘Loose’, has defied expectations, as due to the co-production touches of Timbaland, a hip-hop direction was largely expected to be followed.

This single, In God's Hands, especially flies in the face of those predictions, taking on a more low-key acoustic led path elevating a longing, clear and mature vocal projection.

This song is obviously stock-taking time for Nelly, as she soothingly hits out at selfish people, carelessness and promotes the cause of fate. Although, as the song builds up to a lush plateaux, there is nothing careless about this 29 year old Canadian’s approach here.
