[rogerpenna]

what an odd choice of song... this is a song usually sang to make children sleep, I think its at least 70 years old, since I heard it was composed by Heitor Villa Lobos.

[duduG89]

OH MY GOSH! You sang very well in Portuguese! CONGRETULATIONS!! I'm so happy listen to a foreing guy singing or speakin my mother languange!!! You let me happier today! thanks! lol

[fr1ax]

Pleasy Marry me! :) I even speak portuguese and you already know me. Kiss

[charlyluissss]

Please, can someone tell me the name of this song? I think it's cute, and Jay's version made me want to know more about it.....THANK YOU GUYS !

[charlyluissss]

cancion muy linda, cada vez que veo un video de Jay que canta en un otro idioma yo creo que puede hacer todo lo que quiere, las emociones que se puede sentir escuchando hablan...sine duda es un artista......BRAVO!!!

[GualdiGodoy]

@charlyluissss @charlyluissss

here in Brazil the name of this music is "se essa rua fosse minha" (If this was street mine)

Minha Mãe Cantava Pra mim Durmir =)

[chicopolino]

Minha mãe cantava essa música pra eu dormi rs

[ninalefebvre]

Que lindo ahah <3

[hatsuharuboi]

I just watched Shortbus and it was awesome, such a good movie. btw I think you are the cutest thing ever singing, loved you voice, so I came straight here and search your name and found this video. I'm brazilian so this interested me a lot, and i have to say, you surprised! I met others americans and they coundn't talk s*** of portuguese after staying here for weeks and you learn by yourself and sung with a charming accent!

[marcusmangetti]

Jay.... this song, that's a traditional brazilian lullaby... we've all listened it since we were babies, be sure... and your vocal performance with portuguese is amazing.... the tone, the accent... it seems you were really FEELING the song. We know how you american guys have difficulties speaking our language... it's not that easy believe us... but your performance is very impressive. Congratulations! Come back soon!

[Loojp]

Jay.

Believe me.

you spoke the words of this song much better than most people I know ...

(laughs)

I was surprised when he began speaking in Portuguese.

My hug.

[ChrisGothic]

Man I've heard this video since You had uploaded it, today I was checking some videos on youtube, and I find your video again, so decided to post a comment.

Just like the other girl said. my dad used to sing this song for me to sleep too, when I was a little boy.

A flashback from my childwood.

This is a very important old song from here, I guess lot of kids had slept listening this song

Great job dude, keep going!

[hemeoli]

sua pronucia está boa, porém essa musica é muito chata

[lylahmoussa]

Wow! It's really good! I'm from Brazil and your Portuguese is perfect, don't worry about it :D

[fexoto]

very good. amazing voice. português perfeito! :)

[MarciaCamara]

So... cute! The last thing I listened to before I sleep tonight! I'm gonna dream of it. Dad used to sing this song for me to sleep, when I was a little girl. You took me back to my childwood. I'm gonna have a good sleeping... Like the angel you were singing about. =) Thanks!

Your accent sounded very sweet; you did it very well. Such a great portuguese pronounce, too.

What can I say? You're damn good! Congrats!

Gonna listen to your other songs asap. Got to sleep, now... =)

XxxXx

[velasqalex]

Beautiful *_* Portuguese very good for an American guy.

[baomgama]

Lindo de morrer!!!!

Só tome cuidado nas frases musicais no final das estrofes. Vc tá descendo lá de cima, não é pra subir tanto na primeira nota do final da estrofe.

Parabéns mesmo!!!

[miyukon]

You rock.

[Fernandothatsme]

I'm Brazilian too!

Wow your portuguese is so cute and perfect! But don't you have no one to teach you portuguese, so if you need any private class I can give it to you any time! LOL

When do you plan coming back to Brazil? Come to RIO DE JANEIRO!

If you don't come I catch you in Vancouver! Hehehehe...

You are perfect and don't doubt about it NEVER!

In addiction I love your smiles... keep doing them!

[Fernandothatsme]

There's no word to say how amazing, perfect, fantastic and gorgeous you are!

What else can I say... Nothing, because took all the words from my lips.

I'm also cannot believe you ever were here in Brazil.

[Gurjau]

Oi Jay que bom ver você falando e cantando em português, muito lindo fiquei emocionado.

Gosto muito de você.

[languagenow]

Excellent job on the pronunciation, just minimal adjustments to make. Check out my videos on pronunciation if you get a chance (shameless plug!) like your musica. Jason

[julimdinho]

hahaha. i'm living in UK for 2 years now and people find my accents funny, but it's funny cos your accents is also funny...hahaha. but in the other hand ur potuguese is quite good... but mate 'porto alegre' is the worse place to learn portuguese, they have a kind weird accent even for real brazilian people... anyway... and during the song i could hardly notice the accents...

[soratemple]

honestly? the best cover by a non-portuguese/ brasilian ever made :) you're accent is really there (you should try a Portugal - portuguese one of these days to see how it goes). kiss

[breathingpearl]

[yeahburp]

I don't think your accent sounds like Portuguese accent, it sounds Brazilian =)In Portugal, they usually don't pronounce many vowels. Anyway, I love you, Mr. Brannan.

[jamesbrennand]

nice jay! sexy voice for a sexy boy! Vem para o Brasil mais vezes...

[ysulyan]

Hey, your portuguese is just perfect for someone that doesn't speak it. Portuguese is one of the hardest languages, in my opnion... congrats and good luck ^^

[GiseleZwicker]

Way to go!!

It's true that you have somewhat of the portuguese accent from portugal, but I suspect that it's easier for you to get that one, huh?

I love this song, by the way.

Congratulations.

[oicesar]

Parabens pela canção. Simples, mas cheia de emoção. Boa sorte pelo Brasil.

[Aliceads]

Heey! Congrats!

Your portuguese is very good! and it is very hard to learn it! I'm brazilian =)

And you voice is very cute too! Came here to Brazil again okey?

Parabéns! Se der canta mais alguma em portugues para a gnte, pode ser?

Beijos!

[Sevlar]

[eusougrosso]

Nice interpretation. Esta rua está linda na sua voz. Esta Rua became a wonder on your voice.

[LuciliaMarie]

Nice voice! :D What is the title of the song?

It's very familiar sounding(I'm Brasilian) Although I don't know the name of the song. (????)

[justmarcio]

Next time come to Sao Paulo, and I teach you some MPB songs, you're gonna dig it.

[emanhotto]

[liceeeh]

OH MY GOD! My childhood TOLTALLY ran through my eyes now! This song is very old but still give me butterflies everytime I hear it.

Like you said, Portuguese is a very difficult language and, for someone who learned it just from the intenet you're a very good speaker. (I'm studying English and Portuguese in college and I know how hard it is for foreign people to speak our language.)

Kisses for you and goos luck with your portuguese learning process =*

[FadaBerlin]

Hey Im Brazilian living in Berlim !!! and your portuguese its PERFECT !!! When I was 3 years my Mom used to sing this song for me, I love it!!

Last year I saw Short Bus , best film ever , you were great and last week I discovery your songs and they are perfect !! Congrats!!!!

[rickypoa]

[sayyadina]

[fabricioteixeira]

jesus, it was perfect! please, record more songs in portuguese! you can find some in the playlist "musica nacional" on my profile. thx.

[thiagobprj]

Well I am from Brazil and I have to say that I am really impressed. This song is kind of a lullaby here, and you not only did it justice but sounded reaaaally nice (of course, you always do).

I just wish I knew about the show and that I could have made it there.

Now I just have to wait for you to come to Brazil again... to Rio de Janeiro please ! lol

Looking forward to seeing you perform.

xoxo

[caesarbrutus]

[tigr2fx]

b e a u t i f u l

[WTHWTFWTB]

hey im brazilian and i have to say im kinda impressed with your portuguese, you just have to work a litle more on the pronnunciation, but it still great!

mto bom ai o seu portugues cara, você só precisa melhorar um pouco na sua pronuncia, mesmo assim mto legal!

[Hinidas]

The author of "Nesta Rua" is Heitor Villa-Lobos.

[soviepills]

my grandmom used to sing me that folk song to make me sleep xD

[Hinidas]

Hi, Jay... it was a very pleasant surprise to listen to that old tune. You may know the song is called "Nesta Rua" (On this Street), and its origins is lost in time. Children used to sing it while dancing in circle, hand to hand, on the streets of small towns. This joyful play is called "ciranda" but it is hardly ever seen nowadays. Everyone knows the song in Brazil and your performance made it even more beautiful. Your pronunciation is also very good. Congratulations.

[Hinidas]

The lyrics are: Nesta rua, nesta rua tem um bosque Que se chama, que se chama Solidão Dentro dele, dentro dele mora um anjo Que roubou, que roubou meu coração Se eu roubei, se eu roubei teu coração Tu roubaste, tu roubaste o meu também Se eu roubei, se eu roubei teu coração É porque, é porque te quero tanto bem Se esta rua se esta rua fosse minha Eu mandava, eu mandava ladrilhar Com pedrinhas, com pedrinhas de brilhante Para o meu, para o meu amor passar

[jimmyr53]

Oh My God

That was just Fantastic

didnt understand a word but you sound so great

thanks for doing youtubes and letting us see ya and hear ya.....love you long time.....MAUH

[soviepills]

"Basically you could sing the phone book and make me melt. So yeah, this was amazing." The best comment ever

But anyway you sing very well in portugues.. almost dont have any accent

I cant believe I didnt know you where here. Please come back to Brazil, in special to Rio de Janeiro \o/

[tiago0004]

Jay , i'm Brazilian ! this is pretty good ! well... i think its too late coz ur gig there is probably over when u read this =.= so whatever, u dont need any help :P

Dude u need to come to do a show here in Rio de Janeiro Brazil, i'll love to c u live !

hope u like Porto Alegre ! C YA !

Tchau ! Boa sorte !

[garycuk]

Sounds absolutely amazing x

[doggettbm]

well done man, I just recently subscribed, you should check out my stuff, I do like rap and R&B covers. i know it sounds like a stretch but you should check it out. You got a great voice

[frnsc]

^___^

the song and you singing sounds lovely!!!

i don't understand, but it sound lovely!!!

AWESOME DUDE!!! ^_^

[amangel1]

Muito Linda. I make mine the lyrics of this song to you.

[alexandreharth]

you're amazing, jay.

i can't believe you came to my city and i wasn't there.

comeback, comeback, comeback.

[headxversusheart]

whats the title of this song?

[Volans0317]

cute accent!! :)

[Elithecurious]

That is SO amazing :) I've been learning Portuguese, and it was such a surprise to see a new video from you in Portuguese! :) I LOVED it :) Your voice sounds so great...Even the pronounciation wasn't perfect, you still amaze me to learn in such short time...it's wonderful :) Obrigada, you just made my day ;)

[Pharyn]

o.o beautiful...I think you did a fantastic job (though I'm not up to snuff about the accents either, I'm no help there). I know spanish a bit, and portugese is similar but I know I couldn't be fluent like *that*.

[perfectchef]

That was so sensual to listen to. Exactly what I needed after a long day.

[Swanny930]

LOVE your voice...cant get enough of it :-)

[fabiofurlan]

i'm speachlees!!!

you came to Brazil!!!

OMG!!!!!

you don't need to worried about your pronunciation, it's almost flawless..

we can still see that you aren't brazilian

but your "R" it's perfect!!! Mainly 'cause american cannot say the "R" right!!!

love you!!!

[greyk22]

you sound AMAZING. but corazon sounds more like 'core-a-sewn'. =) good luck!

[Morgenrtl]

[sparklybritty]

You're priceless -- Awe . :) I love it!
