Tatuagem on banjo

[annaclaramatos]

Dear Mercedez! How are you? I've uploaded a video of Tatuagem in my channel! Go check it! Your version, as always, is beautiful. Your voice is so sweet, so wonderful to hear. I'm your fan!

[iyours]

(You are unique without effort

A rare desert flower under half moon

Towards which we stare to forget the dark,

The thirst, solitude and the street emptiness.

And by your singing in the silence blooms an urge

That this sound mirage truly be

A reality, a bossa melody,

With no sense, reason, or revelation,

But the affliction that it is ours.)

...

[iyours]

Voce e unica sem fazer esforco Uma flor rara de deserto a meia-lua Que a gente olha pra esquecer da escuridao De tanta sede, solidao, e o vazio da rua. E por seu canto um anseio no silencio desabrocha De que na verdade essa miragem sonora Seja uma realidade, melodia de bossa, Sem sentido, razao, ou revelacao, Mas uma aflicao de que seja nossa. O nosso encontro . De dentro da miragem

I can't pretend to know very much about music, or the Portuguese language, but I can tell you that this struck a very personal note (no pun intended) with me. So thank you. I've been a fan of yours for a while now.

How beautiful and melancholic. Your smooth voice and the banjo, just clicking together well. You're truly inspiring and I am a musician too.

[LashLarue2003]

Thank you for another unique and creative video. Straight to the heart and very Elis-like.

[comeonbert]

Thank you! For the first time in my life I understood portuguese ;-J

I like that subtitles idea - especially when the lyrics are so beautiful! You could add it to other (non-english) videos comig up, maybe unobtrusively in a corner.

Thanks again! This song is still right under my skin...

Beautiful lyrics. This song was so extremely passionate and erotic. I would say it was an expression of "agape". Great job!

[lunalunanueva]

Hola Mercedezzz!

Beautiful song.

Nice moon effect!

[marcelo075]

Very nice. Is this your first Chico Buarque song? In my opinion he is the best Brazilian lyricist. Hands down. Bring on more Chico! Very nice video...what was the intention behind the visuals?  Reminded me of a moon, night sky... just wondering if that was what you were going for.

[djdevo]

Yowza!

[sonnenberg]

Beautiful. Thanks for taking the trouble to subtitle it, and for introducing me to this great song!
