The process of creating the song began in the recording studio one morning at around 4:00 a. m. , when Timbaland recommended that Furtado go home because she was tired. Furtado, who had heard that the band U2 (a band she says she deeply admires) wrote many of their songs in the studio control room, said "Really? I'll show you", put on her hoodie and began to "jam". A hoodie (or hoody) short for hooded sweatshirt, is a heavy upper-body garment with a hood. A jam session is a Musical act where Musicians gather and play (or "jam") without extensive preparation or predefined Arrangements [2] Nate Hills and Timbaland soon joined her, writing and producing as they went, and according to Furtado, this process intensified as she sang. The team used four microphones in the live room and moved them around during recording, about which Furtado said, ". . . when you listen to it—there's a lot of dimension. It kind of sounds like [Timbaland is] in another country". [2] Afterwards, they picked the best vocals and "perfected" them, before inserting "reverbs and weird alien sounds" onto them. "[W]e experimented a lot with depth and different sounds", Furtado said of the making of the song. "[It] affected my vocals a whole lot.

It has a mystery to it, that I have not quite figured out. It has a haunting twist to it. " [5] In other interviews she said that she does not really know what "Say It Right" is about, "but it captures the feeling I had when I wrote it, and it taps into this other sphere. "[4] In an interview for The Sunday Times, it was mentioned that it is about her breakup with DJ Jasper Gahunia, the father of her daughter.
