"Fuerte"
Song

"Fuerte" (English: "Strong") is a song recorded by Canadian singer-songwriter Nelly Furtado and singer Concha Buika for Furtado's first full-length Spanish album Mi Plan (2009). It was written by Nelly Furtado, Alex Cuba and James Bryan and was produced by Salaam Remi.

Background

The song reached number 3 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs chart without any promotion. It was said to be the summer club single for Mi Plan,[1] however, the release was delayed. It was officially released on October 26.[2]

Music video

The music video for "Fuerte" was directed by Richard Bernardin, Robacho Buika and Aaron A.[3] The video was made available on VEVO on the 22nd of October.

In the video, Furtado is shown in various elegant dresses wondering around a lavishly decorated house before descending into its indoor swimming pool as the chorus begins. During the second and third choruses, Concha Buika also features, though appearing separately from Furtado, standing at the bottom of a staircase in a more modern-day building.

Lyrical content

It tells of a woman who's strong without her lover; strong enough not to need him, and she doesn't want to think about the past. So she moves on, and now that he wants her back, she refuses - showing her strength as a woman.
