Nelly talks about how hard it was choosing the songs to put on her Greatest Hits CD that has just been released saying

“It was really hard choosing a song especially because I’ve done so many duets over the years. Collaboration has been a big part of my musical process.”

She also talks about the people she has worked with, both producers and other singers and how she is still learning from each of them, as well as why she changes styles of music so much and her influences.

“I play ukulele, I play trombone. I was a pretty eclectic kid. I guess that’s why I like to discover myself through sound and music.”

I don’t know if I want a bunch of teens going around singing “Promiscuous.” [In Glee] But hey, whatever they want. It’s a great show. “Maneater” would be great.”

“I’d like to duet with Madonna. I want to work with A.R Rahman, this Indian composer. I want to go to carnival in Brazil. I would like to play trombone on stage.”

BBC News has posted a new interview with Nelly. She tells stories about some of the songs on her upcoming Greatest Hits album, talks about the record label sending some of the songs from “Loose” back, the songs that Nevis can’t stop listening to and the songs that didn’t make it onto the Greatest Hits album.

To read the full Interview, head over to BBC News.

“You know what’s really funny is that I actually wasn’t. I was thinking more about free clothes and meeting cute boys, and I finally have a CD out so I get to do music full time (laughs). At the time, when I signed my record deal, in my head I was like okay I’m just gonna put this one album out to humor myself and then I’m gonna go back to university. But then I never went back to university, I just kept making albums because it was so much fun. That’s actually what I was thinking about at the time, if you want the truth (laughs).”

Nelly answers a few questions about her upcoming “Greatest Hits” album, “Night Is Young” and her new album “Lifestyle” (working title) set for release next year.

Nelly will be performing for the first time in Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates on 26-27th November 2010. In a recent interview she talked about a new track on her upcoming 4th English album “Lifestyle” and she mentioned inspiration for a new track:

Furtado has two projects on her plate for next year, which she is hoping to promote during her visit to the Emirates. Her new album, Lifestyle – the fourth English album she has produced – will be out in 2011 and she is also releasing a compilation album called The Best Of Nelly Furtado later this month.

She says the Lifestyle album is still a work in progress. She was in the studio this week – recording a Dolly Parton cover for an independent movie being produced in Montreal called The Year Dolly Parton Was My Mother – when inspiration for a new track struck.

“The song I’m singing is called The Seeker and it is a gospel-influenced track. As I was singing it, a whole new idea for a track for the new album came to me and I had to sit down and write all the lyrics on my BlackBerry. That kind of thing happens all the time,” she said.

And what is this about a Dolly Parton cover for an independent film?? Can anyone shed any light?
