The music video for "Say It Right" was
directed by British duo Rankin & Chris and
filmed in Los Angeles, California in late
October 2006. It was shot back-to-back with
the video for "All Good Things (Come to an
End)", the album's third single in Europe.
Furtado called the video her "first action
thing" since the video for her 2000 single,
"I'm like a Bird", and said that it featured
her experiencing what she called "a total
rock-star moment. It's so iconic." The
mini-feathered cocktail dress Furtado wears
at the opening of the video was designed
specifically for her by Australian designer
Alex Perry, who said, "It's so cool because
she's just undergone a bit of a revamp from
what her previous image was; she's become a
little more sexy and glamorous."
The clip starts with a helicopter landing on
a black helipad bearing Furtado's name on top
of a building, and Furtado getting out. She
is shown on the roof of the building
throughout the video, with the Los Angeles
skyline in the background. The video features
mostly face shots of her and Timbaland
intercut with shots of dancers. Furtado
described the clip as "a throwback to the
'80s ... the more surreal side" because the
shots of her and Timbaland reminded her much
of those of Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart in
videos for Eurythmics' singles, and "the
strange relationship [they] had, where ...
you get this intense vibe from it. And Tim
and me, we're partners, we vibe on a serious
creative level, so the video captures that
energy." The video ends with Furtado climbing
back into the helicopter, which flies off.
The video debuted on MTV's Total Request Live
in the U.S. on November 6 and on Canada's
MuchMusic in the week ending November 16. It
reached number nine on the Total Request Live
top ten video countdown on November 8, its
first day on the countdown; it returned to
the countdown on December 14 and peaked at
number one twice.The video reached number one
on the MuchMusic series Countdown for the
week ending February 16. The "Say It Right"
video was retired from TRL after spending
forty days on the countdown. At the 2007 MTV
Video Music Awards, Furtado was nominated in
the category of Female Artist of the Year for
"Say It Right" and "Maneater"."Say It Right"
was nominated for the MuchMoreMusic Award and
in the Best International Video by a Canadian
category at the 2007 MuchMusic Video Awards.
MTV International certified the "Say It
Right" video platinum for more than 6,000
plays on the MTV network.
On the video-sharing website YouTube, it is
the 33st most watched music videos of all
time -- having over 27 million views -- and
it was also Furtado's most watched video.
