  • The loveliest vocal combination ever!

  • atleast 10K views are by this guy right here!

  • what sort of planet -- or should i say, era -- are they from? there are many great things about london, but it is nothing like the way it is portrayed in this song.

  • @ableukhov This version is a cover. The song was written by a brazilian singer Caetano Veloso, who was exiled in London by the brazilian military governement in the 60's. In the song he is basically singing how London is a great beautiful place and that he can walk the streets without fear, however he knows no one there and feels very very lonely, and wants to desperately come back to his birth place. A thing which he can't do. The 1st verse is the song self explanation.

  • Bacana!

  • bem bacana

  • Todos amamos esta canção..

  • Todos amamos esta canção..

    

  • Bacana!

  • beautiful

  • Devendra > Cibele. Muito mais.

  • wtf is this?!

  • i love it

  • 20 days till i see London..

  • i love devendra banhart :)

  • Sacaneou o Caetano uhauauaha

  • @allancorebaralho Porque rapaz ??? Ficou bom o cover.

  • So sweet.....i love it...

  • Muito bonitinho...

  • warning: this is NOT bossa-nova.it is simply samba.

    Cartola era bossa-nova porque cantava baixinho? Ah, tá!

  • esse clipe é muito bem bolado!!!!

  • Now this is one of his best work.

  • "Green grass, blue eyes, grey skies, God bless silent pain and happiness" - England seen by a Brazilian (not any Brazilian, a fuckin' genius and legend, Caetano Veloso)

  • We give you best naughty ladies world5.info

  • It's bossa !

  • Annie......it's definatly not as acceptable for older girls to meet younger guys in the UK as in the US - i actually do it online

    CougarParty.co.uk

    - I think soon we'll catch up with the US, i hope

  • a soft song... lovely

  • Cibelle (and Devendra Banhart) cross the streets of London without fear...

  • It miss the emotional touch of Caetano Veloso...

    This song was written by Caetano while he was in his exile in London, due to the Military Dictactorship in Brazil. You can notice explicit, thoug subtle, references about that in the song.

    The part about "while my eyes goo looking for flying saucers in the sky" is a reference to the habit of the military junta of using supposed UFO in news as a way of distracting Brazilians of what was going on, while they kept torturing people in secret.

  • @Nickoles2 oh, really? i always thought that the sentece was a poetic way to say that he was waiting for a 'message' telling him the situation in Brazil was getting better and then he could come back.

    But your interpretation makes more sense. anyway, a great song, no matter what he wanted to say!

  • its not fuckin mpb... its not even sung in portuguese... its bossa though

  • muito bom!!!

  • haha, man in the background at 0.32 is shocked ;)

  • Its MPB (Musica Popular Brasileira: Popular Brazilian Music), not Jazz and not Bossa Nova! Xos =D

  • its MPB (musica popular brasileira: popular brasilian music), not jazz, not bossa nova! =D

  • how will you see ufo's when it is always cloudy and raining all the time

  • @ishnup1 it means that they were wondering

  • outstanding

  • You can tell this was written by someone not native to London. Inaccurate in every possible way. Good song though. Keeping up morale.

  • Brazilian music is the best in the world because shows a reflection of country's people formation: the mix of European, Natives and African people.

    Bossa Nova (Samba + American Jazz) is a proof!

  • lindo isso Cibelle!

    beijo do Limao

  • london is a badly overrated city

  • @musicshanky I entirely disagree ... London is absolutely fantastic ... NY, on the other hand, is the overrated one ...

  • Oh Sunday, Monday autumn pass by me And people hurry on so peacefully A group approaches the policeman He seems so pleased to please them It's good at least to live and I agree He seems so pleased at least And it's so good to live in peace And Sunday, Monday, years and I agree While my eyes Go looking for flying saucers in the sky While my eyes Go looking for flying saucers in the sky

  • lovely video

  • Cibelle linda!

  • Alive Caetano Veloso ! Great music! I love Caetano and Cibelle (great version)!

  • such a fun video (:

  • im angry

    so lovely! iR

  • Loved The Video SO MUCH!! And the song was just so sweet it made my tooth hurt!

  • the man scares me

  • nice brazilian jazz touch

  • @Mariangello Not sure if you know this but it's a song written by Caetano Veloso, a famous Brazilian singer/songwriter.

  • @Mariangello you want to say Bossa Nova ? or just Bossa. ;)

  • @Mariangello the name of the rythm is samba !!!

  • @Mariangello the name is bossa nova!!

  • @Mariangello Its Bossa Nova, not jazz

  • @Vinix30 yea I know that, I was simply breaking it down for those who might not know the proper terminology (this is youtube ,you know), Bossa Nova is still a form of music with elements similar/synonymous to "jazz" and it hails from "Brazil". It also has samba rhythms at times so maybe you should add that to your comment as well. My comment is super old. I have no idea why it is featured at the top of this video. I really don't care that much, but people keep feeling the need to address it.

  • (in portuguese)

    Cibelle: VOCE É LINDA !

    Quando vem se apresentar no "eixo Brasília/Goiãnia" ???

  • LOL!!!!!!! :)

  • Hey, this music was composed by Caetano Veloso - brasilian singer and conposer - here he is the artist king! But Cibelle is brasilian too.
