"Maneater" was definitely one of thr earliest songs i became OBSESSED with. This era was so enormous, i can't lie and say how disappointed I was with the next album. A Solar Power tea. 😔

Maneater is okay, it's a good pop song, but All Good Things is the best song in Loose. There's a special feeling that song evoked (along with Say It Right) whenever I got to hear it on radio  Too bad, it's too good for US' taste.

Maneater is really a proto-2008 electropop sound. Truly sounds like it could have been from 2008 or 2009 on The Fame, Rated R, or any Kanye West song from that time.

is there any particular reason for the furtado revival? i've seen her give SO many interviews recently. i know she has a new album out soon, but it seems like her promo budget is huge. did she change labels or smth?

she's doing nothing but some interviews though which are cheap af

Maneaeter this, Say it right that... When are we gonna admit that the real masterpiece of the album is GLOW... Tik Tok needs to deep dive into Loose because only 3 songs out of it getting praise is making me sick

:clack:

Why is the lack of taste so evident on this thread? :rip:

Maneater is a fantastic song, and has held up so well. The outro is still divine.

i remember way before Loose came out, i had heard the demo to Maneater and i was obsessed. Like I was more hyped over Maneater than i was over Promiscuous !! To this day that song still does something to me.

that's because maneater >>>>>>> promiscuous

I remember Maneater & Promiscuous coming out in different territories both as lead singles. In the UK, Maneater was first and was a huge #1 hit.

Exactly my thoughts

A legendary and iconic bop, way better than Promiscous tbh.

the beat defines my childhood. i remember seeing the video as a kid and wondering who this sexy hot vixen was... it's such a dark, sick record, it's always been my fave song by her.

 

also, PRIMAL!

 

not the speaker catching on fire :flame: :dies:

Best single from Loose :clap3:

Yeah, the song was unlike anything on radio at the time and even till this day, it sounds especial. This takes me back to 2006, it was the first single in Mexico but in some channels that aired music from US, they were airing Promiscuous and I was trilled to be enjoying both songs lol, although Maneater always had the upper hand until SIR.

GLOW is THAT girl :jonny5: the literal fact she begins the song saying she's ready. she knew she'd stomp on careers if she had released it as a single. she felt sorry for the girls back then
