  • Mercedez você é formidável, sensacional, maravilhosa e inesquecível. Sou Brasilero, mas gosto muito de ROCK. Percebe-se que você gosta muito de MPB. Eu sendo Brasileiro sinto-me honrado por isso. Um grande abraço e muitos beijos. TCHAU

  • Genial.

    BTW, where did you find the chords, please?

  • charming interpretation

  • I'm not a friend of yours. I don't know you but for this You Tube version of Tom Jobin's Águas de Março. From Brazil, my congratulations on your taste and on your courage. The song is no easy thing to play and sing, all the more so if you aren't proficient with the language (also very difficult, I guess). In a nutshell, your modest, unprofessional rendition gave me pleasure. Thanks.

  • Bravo!! Standing ovation in Dallas! Very good job!

  • nice job! banjo's not easy to play. now for some Foggy Mountain Breakdown!

  • Nice one !

  • I never thought I'd see a "foreigner" singing the extremely difficult and sinuous Águas de Março, let alone sing with such grace. Excellent work!

  • Excelente!!!

    :D

  • uaauuuu ... very very amazing , congratulations !! who are the player ? where from ?

  • lindo lindo linda voce....

  • Hi, I loved your performance. Thank you for sharing it with us, Youtube users.

  • You re great!

    The lyrics are difficult even for brazilians.

  • Hey, great job! Im a brazilian piano player! Check out my videos tagged as piano25

    Great portuguese too!

  • Oh Sweet!!!

  • And I must say you have a really sweet voice and a cute accent! I don't know where you are from, but you sound like a French girl who learnt Portuguese with a Portugal accent.

  • Jobim used to descride this song "impressionist", in which the loose words and phrases are "brush strokes", each representing a sensation, that go to form a picture; something to do with the concept of "affective memory". Strange as it may seem, it does work, at least for a Brazilian audience. I love that song! I can hear the late-summer rains of Rio de Janeiro there!

  • you have such a wonderful voice.

  • Very good, although I am not too fond of the bajo sound, it reminds me of twangy bluegrass and country I had to listen to in the Army back in my days, but anyways, where can I find the chords to this amazing song?

  • I love you!

  • We ALL love her! Such talent coupled with an open attitude to music is a wonderful thing, and thanks to Youtube for bringing her to all of us.

  • NICE!

  • Great job. I just can't get my brain around the structure of this song, let alone deal with all those words. A friend urged me a few weeks to try again (I did feebly). A few days later a well known singer in town was in a pinch and asked me to back her up on it. Needless to say I had to say 'no'. I'll keep trying!

  • I love this! So cute!

  • Mercedezz! That's my favoutite songs for about 20 years. And yout version is beautyful and very touching to. Great job! Do ist again and go ahead that way! You're fan Michael from Berlin! :-)

    BTW.: Every musician who play that song is laughing and happy. That's true! ;-)

  • Ahhh ficou legal, não ficou uma bosta!

  • Lindo voce cantandooo!!!!

  • Great version of a beautiful song!

  • She's cute, plays and sings well. I'd mike the voice so the banjo doesn't overwhelm it. But what's NOT to like? Nice job!

  • Fascinating

  • you are so sweet.

  • You are simply amazing. Your voice goes beyond sweetness and beauty, as also does your smile. Perfect.

    Saludos desde Argentina!

  • i´m from brazil, even been a brazilian citizen i can´t sing in portuguese like you :D. Damn PERFECT.

  • lo mejor es la sonrisa, las sonrisas

  • Je suis d'accord. La musique devrait être joyeuse comme ça, hein?

    :-)

    Merci, Mercedezzz

  • maaad vocals! well done! brava

  • wo you are brilliant!

  • i've been seen your movies, alone and with your little band, and i'm very surprised!

    you play very good!

    it's a satisfaction to see foreing people playing brazilian music!

    congratulations!

    oh, i favorited " berimbau" on my orkut's videos!

    it's pretty good!

  • :-))

  • Ficou bom!

    Vc é brasileira, não é?

    Não percebi sotaque!

  • GREATINGS FROM RUSSIA =))))

  • YOU ARE BEST!!!!!

  • love it. especially when you say Belo Horizonte, my hometown. Where are you ??? All the best. Peace. Brandao.

  • Muito bem! A bossa nova cantada em português com sotaque americano, acompanhada por um banjo, deu um jeito inovador de se fazer música. O solo final ficou perfeito. O banjo parece mais harmônico, ele possui uma corda a mais?

  • With a big smile at the end just like Elis Regina!! LA CLASSE!!

  • A new and wonderful way to listen this music. Thanks.

  • OK, You have impressed a hillbilly American Banjo picker. So what is your tuning and where do I go to find those chords!!??

  • FANTASTICO!GREAT! i hope you post QUA QUARA QUA QUA from Powell! i think i will be hard to play on banjo isn't? GREATINGS FROM SPAIN!

  • I was looking to see if you would do this song or not and sure enough you did. Awesome job I must say. I've tried learning this song but the lyrics are the hardest part
