For all of those people that said that Nelly Furtado's "Manos Al Aire" was a flop single, here you go:
http://www.reuters.com/article/press...09+PRN20090831

That's an irrelevant chart.

well here's billboard.com
http://www.billboard.com/#/column/ch...04007987.story

Are you an old member or something?

Anyway, the song is good but it doesn't deserve #1 IMO.

yet radio wont accept her and would rather listen to Ne-Yo

For a Spanish song, thats huge already!

first north american to hit #1 on the latin Billboard? yeah right congratulations though

Congratulations to Nelly! She's awesome, she and shaki could easily own the world

that article is wrong....


she is not the first north american to hit #1 on that chart

and she is not the first canadian to hit #1 neither.....its Celine Dion

wait. . . this song replaced loba / ???? already ???

Nelly Furtado Makes History by Being the First North American Artist to Land a
#1 Hit With an Original Spanish Song

Mexico is part of North America, a lot of Mexicans have been #1 on that chart, so Nelly Furtado didn't make any history besides, US artists like Jennifer Lopez and Selena have been #1 before with original spanish songs

^No.Mexico isnt considered North America.Its only the US,Canada and Greenland(lol)

The article is written by Universal.....they will not say the true

obviously she isn't the first, Selena, Marc Anthony, Jennifer Lopez...and i can go on and on.
They are all from USA.

I think they mean't Canadian rather than North American.

People's hate is so transparent in PRESSED members like *cough*TRLisrigged!*cough*

And Adrain the chart is a BIG deal for Spanish artists, and you don't even live in North America anyways so SIT DOWN.

hatas "manos al aire"

Congrats!! This song deserves to be a worldwide #1!

When was the last WW #1 Spanish album? I know it had to have been Shakira or something.

Anyways she has a good chance of being #1 WW with this album, especially since not only was MAA a hit in Spanish speaking countries but also in countries like Germany and Italy.

MAA actually rose from #16 to #10 on the European airplay chart this week.Not only is it the only song in the top 40 thats not in english,Its the first foreign top 10 since "La Tortura" in 2005!

Still flopping on the pop charts. I need her English stuff already. Her Spanish stuff bores me.
