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
The first few seconds need rearrangement, but the rest of it is FANTASTIC! I feel great after listening to it and watching your face singing! Something happens to people when they sing this song :)
eh bom ver pessoas de outros paises cantando mpb, e pensar que tem brazucas q tampao os ouvidos pra musica nacional e soh curtem musicas de fora, nao que as musicas gringas sejam ruins pelo contrario mas a falta de identidade desse tipo eh que mata
muito boa a interpretação e a felicidade cantando eh melhor ainda
Um beijo bem grand no teu coracao. Vm cantar comigo. Meu esposo tem uma banda e eu amo Bossa poderiamos fazer uma duplinha bem legal. Ha eu sou Brasileira from Sao Paulo be pertinho da avenida Sao Joao, lembfra essa usica do caetanos " Avenida Sao Joao" E linda , nao e?
I absolutely love it. The most beautiful song in the world performed by a beautiful young woman with an absolutely, marvellous voice playing a Banjo so very well. What's next ?
minina adoro te ver cantar... sou do brazil e sua voz tem muito do jeito brasileiro. tambem toco banjo. Mas um banjo da amazonia... outros ritmos.... um grande abraços da amazonia pra vc.
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.
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!
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?
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!
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! ;-)
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?
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
