Astrud Gilberto - The girl from Ipanema

Esta costumo canta-la cada vez que vou ao karaoke. Afinal, nao pode ser Madonna a toda a hora. E nao ha video melhor no mundo!

Para quem nao sabe, a garota de Ipanema existe mesmo!

I usually sing this one at karaoke. After all, it can't be Madonna all the time. And this video is just the best!

And did you know that the girl of Ipanema is a real girl?

Jerrold Immel - Dallas

Nao faco a minima ideia de quem e o senhor que compos esta obra. Mas com o Dallas na Super Drama TV apeteceu-me relembrar tempos de outrora.

I have no idea who the man that composed this song is. But with Dallas on Super Drama TV I thought of sharing it with you and remember the good old times.

Duffy - Mercy

Ando doido com esta. Claramente inspirada nos anos 70, diria, com uma voz cristalina, com um look simples. Maravilhoso. E o que e fantastico e que a musica ainda so saiu na internet e ja anda tudo com a Duffy na cabeca!

I'm going crazy about this one. Clearly inspired in the 70's, with a clear voice and a very simples look. Wonderful. And that cool thing is that this song is out only on the internet still everyone is listening to her!

Tina Turner - Something special

Ca esta ela de novo. Vi-a nos Grammys e tenho andado a pensar nela... E lembrei-me desta bela musiquinha...

Here she is again. I saw her at the Grammys and I have been thinking about her... And I thought of this nice song...

Pizzicato Five - Mais que nada

Esta e daquelas mesmo boazinhas! Nao so adoro a musica, como, ainda por cima, e interpretada por um grupo fantastico, os Pizzicato Five!

This is another really good one! Not only do I love the song, but it's actually sang by an amazing group, Pizzicato Five!

Lucy Liu - Queen of the crime council

Entao e assim: a voz dela e excelente e o crescendo emocional e absolutamente divinal e muito aristotelico, diga-se de passagem. E a Sophie Fatale a traduzir, ali, atras, torna esta cena do filme ainda mais sublime.
Mesmo sem imagem, os sons desta passagem sao excelentes, tal como todo o Kill Bill I!

It's as simple as this: her voice is amazing and the crescendo of emotions is amazing and would please even Aristotle himself. And Sophie Fatale's interpreting, right there, just behind her, makes this scene of the movie even greater.
Even without an image, the sounds of this scene are sublime, just like Kill Bill 1 itself!

The Gift - Me, myself and I

Hoje dei com esta. Eu adoro os the gift. Tem uma sonoridade muito propria e a voz dela e optima. E os sentimentos que fluem desta cancao fazem-me sentir bem, como que num eterno abraco quente e reconfortante. E isso mesmo.

I came across this one earlier today. I love the gift. They have their own style and her voice is just awesome. The feeling pouring out of this song makes me feel good, as if I were in a warm and kind hug. That's really it.
