"Powerless (Say What You Want)" is a song by Canadian singer-songwriter Nelly Furtado from her second studio album, Folklore (2003).

[1] Of the instrumentation, Furtado said: "I get to see a lot of DJ-oriented performance stuff, and I'm into the heaviness of breakbeats, how raw and powerful they are.

[2] The video revolves around a classic psychological metaphor: Furtado trapped inside a box from which she seeks to escape.

The video was shot on various sets and dressed locations, and in a large customized box crate, which were all created by production designer Aaron Goffman.

[3] There is an alternate version of the video featuring Furtado in a field, and shown in several screens in different parts of a city, showing the movements of the modern life.
