Shit on the Radio (Remember the Days)

"Shit on the Radio"
Song

"...On the Radio (Remember the Days)" is the fourth single from Canadian singer-songwriter Nelly Furtado's first album, Whoa, Nelly!. The song's album title was "Shit on the Radio (Remember the Days)"; the word "shit" was bleeped and removed from the title for radio airplay.

After the success of Furtado's previous two singles, it was thought that this one would be another hit for her. However, the song failed to chart on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and began a string of singles for Furtado that failed to chart, until 2006 with "Promiscuous". "...On the Radio (Remember the Days)" charted in other countries and reached fourteen on the Canadian BDS Airplay Chart.

Furtado, who wrote the song in one session, said it is about the feelings of insecurity she experienced when hiding her desire to make pop music to fit in with her underground musical peers. "I could try to be cool and whatever, but why do I have to try?", she said. "Why can't I just be myself? The moment you make that step and say, 'I want to make pop music' is a big thing. But no matter what happens to me there'll always be someone going, 'Oh, her music sucks now because everyone likes it.' I feel that song a lot." The music video was directed by Hype Williams and features fellow British Columbian recoding artists Swollen Members.
