Her Timbaland collaboration “Give It to Me” (2007) in the same era also topped the charts in the US and overseas. Furtado’s critically acclaimed duet with James Morrison, “Broken Strings”, also topped the charts in Europe in 2008.
She released her first Spanish-language album, Mi Plan, in 2009, which won her a Latin Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Album.
She has won many awards throughout her career, including one Grammy Award from seven nominations, one Latin Grammy Award, ten Juno Awards, one BRIT Award, one Billboard Music Award, one MTV Europe Music Award, one World Music Award, and three Much Music Video Awards.

Furtado possesses a mezzo-soprano voice. Kristie Rohwedder of Bustle Magazine characterizes it as “soaring”.
During her childhood and youth, Nelly Furtado embraced many musical genres, listening heavily to mainstream R&B, hip hop, alternative hip hop, drum and bass, trip hop, world music (including Portuguese fado, Brazilian bossa nova and Indian music), and a variety of others.
Her biggest influence when growing up was Ani DiFranco. She explained that “when I was a teenager, I wanted to be Ani DiFranco. I never wanted to be part of corporate music.”
