This is the third single in Europe, where Nelly is actually doing very well right now. "Forca" is already #1 in German airplay.
Does anyone know where you can see the video online?

Thanks for the links! A pretty good video! As a Portuguese guy that I am, I can translate the Portuguese lyrics for you, if you'd like to. ;) Sure, that'd be awesome. I actually recognize a word or two (or at least i think I do) because of similarities with Italian, but overall I have no idea what she's saying lol. Ahh, that explains the soccer theme in the video. |

Como uma força, como uma força (Just like a force, just like a force) Como uma força que ninguém pode parar (Just like a force that no one can stop) Como uma força, como uma força (Just a force, just like a force) Como uma fome que ninguém pode matar (just like a hunger that no one can kill) Força! Força! Força! Força! (Come on! Come on! Come on! Come on!) Mais perto do céu, mais perto do céu! (Closer to the sky, closer to the sky!) Este amor... Este amor... (This love... this love...) Tão grande, tão forte (So big, so strong) As you see, a bit generic. But sports anthems are not known for its sheer poetry!  |

:o So similar to Spanish (in writing). I could hardly understand what she was saying in the song.

I hate this song. There were so many other good single possibilities like "Explode," "One Trick Pony," and even "Fresh Off The Boat".

I like this one. Not as much as 'Powerless' or 'Try' but it's still deserving of Top 20 on my chart! Don't like the remix though.

OK ok... Now I really love this song but everyone I am reading that this is one of the weakest songs on Folklore. So I think if this is a weak album song then the album should be good so I shall make a purchase tomorrow.
Anyway, I downloaded Forca on the off chance it could be good about three months ago and I fell in love with it and I still like it now.
I saw the single in town yesterday and saw it had the Spanish version of Powerless on feat. Juanes and I had to buy it. You should buy the single just for that song.
