Eu sou uma pessoa simples, eu vejo gringo reagindo a conteúdo brasileiro, eu clico

I translated the lyrics a couple of years ago: I don’t want to tell you, my love About things I've learned from records I want to tell you how I have lived And all the things that happened to me To live is better than dreaming And I know love is a good thing But I know, too, That any song is smaller than the life Of any person in here So watch out, my dear Danger is just around the corner They have won, and the lights Are red for us Who are young To embrace your brother And kiss your girl in the streets Is why your arms, and lips and voice Have come to exist You ask me about my love I say I am bewitched, like a brand new invention I am staying in the city, won’t go back to the country 'Cause I smell in the wind the scent of a new season I feel everything in the open wound of my heart It’s been so long since I’ve seen you out in the streets Your hair in the wind, young people congregated On the wall of memory, this recollection Is the most aching picture It pains me to realize that despite having done everything that we did We are still the same, and we live We are still the same, and we live The way our parents did Our idols are still the same And appearances do not fool me You say that after them No one new got their breakthrough You may even say I am out of touch Or that I’m making things up But it is you who loves the past and does not see It is you who loves the past and does not see That the new always comes Today I know that those who made me think Of a new conscience, and of youth, Are home, guarded by God Counting silver and gold It pains me to realize That despite having done everything, everything, everything that we did We are still the same, and we live We are still the same, and we live We are still the same, and we live The way our parents did

A Elis não cantou, ela deu um "pito" no povo com essa música, era raiva e desânimo. Por isso ficou essa perfeição.

This song was made at the time of the dictatorship in Brazil, that's why Elis sings so firmly and directly. it was an expression of indignation and the marks of a difficult time for the country.

Makes a React by Tim Maia, one of the greatest singers that Brazil has ever had.

You summoned us lady... Prepare for a lot of brazilians around here now...

Se Elis estivesse viva hoje, estaria cantando com muito mais raiva...

"We're still the same and live just like our parents..." That's powerful.

"I wish I could understand the lyrics because I feel like there is whole levels of meaning there that I can't understand" you couldn't get it more right than this and you got it on the first seconds of the song. The story tells how new generations make the same mistakes as their parents, and critics the younger generation who stopped questioning and fighting for their rights. The song takes so many different meanings when you consider that it was written during a time when Brazil was a dictatorship. It's just one of those great iconic songs

Just found the translation for the lyrics, it can't translate some of the stylistics choices that were made in portuguese, and I will give you some context saying that she were living in a dictatorship at the time, so, keep that in mind and don't be too literal while reading it, but I think it still gives you a pretty good idea of what she's singing about and it's close enough if you don't speak portuguese. "Like our parents" I don't want to talk, my greatest love, About things that I've learned from my vinyls I want to tell you how my life was like And about all that betided me To live is better than dreaming . I know that love is a pretty good thing But I also know that any place is smaller than anyone's life For this reason, watch out, darling, The danger is waiting around the corner They won and the way is now barred to us, the youngs. To embrace your brother and kiss your girl in the street is what your arms, your lips and your voice are made for You ask me what's my new passion I say I'm wondered at all this, it feels like a new invention I'm going to stay at this city, I'm not coming back to the backwoods Because I sense the smell of the new season hovering in the wind I can learn anything through this wound, that lives within my heart It's been a while since I saw you in a street With the wind blowing in your hair, Along young people, all joined together. Hanging up on my mind's wall, The memory of this is the frame that hurts me most My pain is to realize that despite all we have done We are still the same as before and live... We are still the same and live as lived our parents Our idols are still the same And the appearances don't disguise it at all You say that after them, no new idols have ever existed You may even say that I'm out-of-date, that I made up all this But it's you the one who loves the past and can't see that new times will always come Now I've learned that the man who taught me of a new conscience and youth is now sitting at home, guarded by Lord, counting coins of vain money My pain is to realize that despite all we've done We are still the same as before and live... We are still the same and live as lived our parents .

Aí moça, peça pra alguém ti traduzir a letra, a mensagem é mundial vale pra toda humanidade. Tu vai ficar petrificada, sem palavras... a letra é emblemática,quase cirúrgica. Tu vai ficar extasiada quando entender a mensagem, eu garanto. Paz pra todos.

this song portrays the times of militarism and sensibility in Brazil, where artists had to hide and their songs carried strong subliminal messages

Elis é foda, lembrando que a letra é do grande Belchior

context: this song by a great lyricist named Belchior. Belchior became a singer, but, at begin as a story teller. He used to mix Dylan, Beatles and local culture styles into a new style. And the lyrics was engaged politicaly for a moment in Brazil, were the militar ditactorship used to censor any subversive art. So, all the lyrics were made to cheat these mecanisms of sensorship. This is why this performance was so full of emotion and energy. This version was recorded in live TV, in prime time, and hit the audience as a message to the neutral citizens and a self-avaluation for brazilians whom resisted to this moment.

Essa performance de Elis Regina na música de Belchior é IMPAGÁVEL. Penso que ninguém vai superar uma atuação tão brilhante e completa como esta no planeta Terra. Elis simplesmente não deixou pedra sobre pedra. Já que faltou palavras, eu diria que nunca mais vamos assistir uma atuação tão. ...Fantástica.

Soy argentino, pero me gusta mucho la música popular brasilera. Una canción que me gustaría que analises es "A flor da pelé" Milton Nascimiento y Chico Buarque.

There is a movie about her life. Elis is very important to Brazil's history.

Elis Regina was really, first of all, a force of nature. And then a singer.

2022 e a mensagem dessa canção não envelhece, na verdade se revigora!

Elis foi a maior cantora que o Brasil já teve!

Just to let you know, this is a protest song. Elis was like no other. Fearless, passionate, thrilling. I wish to have enough English to translate this song for you.

"What a unique and emotional singer". That was Elis Regina.

This is one of the strongest songs in the world, Belchior was a genius and Elis is the best voice in brazilian history

Elis Regina's the BEST Brazilian interpreter of all times!!!♥♥🥰🥰🤗🤗

I ended up crying perceiving how Beth was able to understand the whole set of emotions Elis Regina shows in this amazing Belchior song, being a non speaker, and not being able to understand the lyrics! The way she perceived Belchior style of “speaking Songs”, the perception of the change in tone by the time Elis sings “há perigos na esquina.. eles venceram e o sinal está fechado pra nós que somos jovens”! I know Beth is an extremily sensitive music professional, but its mostly due to Elis astonoshing performance! Man! How proud I an right now of living in the same country as these amazing artists! Viva Elis Regina! Viva Belchior!!

The meaning is epic. You should get the translation. She's singing about something universal and important to all of us humans. Freedom, legacy, democracy, humanity.

Já curti antes mesmo de assistir porque não tem como criticar a voz dessa mulher, só contemplar e se emocionar. Regina era maravilhosa. Forte e eterna.

Hey, Beth. This is not just a song. This is the expression of indignation at an alienated youth in Brazil, who cannot overcome the mistakes made in the past. More than anything, this is Elis!

Uma interpretação visceral de uma letra que fala essencialmente de desalento, desânimo e acima de tudo, de desencanto. Como Nossos Pais é o hino da Derrota que o grande Belchior nos legou e que Elis soube traduzir.

Gosh, this performance gives me chills. She's invading our souls with that look in her eyes and her voice. So visceral. People explained in the comments the meaning of the song and she was giving the message with her voice and body. So happy you reacted to that.

Simplesmente uma das maiores cantoras de todos os tempos, se não a melhor. Dificilmente você encontrará uma voz que expressa, na integralidade, em cada nota, toda a emoção de uma composição.

Elis Regina jamais haverá uma voz como a dele mds as expressões tudo ela é perfeita mdsss

Imagino se Elis vivesse hoje, a vergonha que teria do povo que ama o passado e não vê.

That music was made during a period of military dictatorship in Brazil, that`s why she speak so bravely with that angry face at the beginning, and then starts to sing after that as a way to make people wake up to fight against the system!! All that in a very popular TV Show at that time, propably watched by more than half the population of Brazil. Besides that, the dictatorship used to censor lyrics against then, and also to arrest and murder the artists if they found out, so you had to be very smart and clever while doing composition of the lyrics, and that`s why it doesnt make much sense when you translate it, you need to feel it and try to catch the meaning from some passages.

Teacher, Elis Regina is without a doubt the Greatest Singer in Brazil.

Beth, she was a superstar. Extremely temperamental. She was nicknamed "little pepper". I guess you can see why!

Well, that music is all about the despair and the generation conflict. Is truly strong, about how youth is being shunned by their elders (eles venceram e o sinal está fechado pra nós/they won and the light is red to us) to shun the youth in turn (nossos ídolos ainda são os mesmos e as aparências não enganam não/our idols are still the same and the appearances don't deceive anymore) with a message of hope under all this mess (mas é você que ama o passado e que não vê que o novo sempre vem/but you love the past and can't see the new always come). (É você que ama o passado, não é você que é mal passado. Yep, estou falando c vc) A pretty strong and emotional song. And our Little Pepper is a mistress of putting emotions in her voice.

Eu não esperava por isso. Realmente amei essa reação, porque amo a Elis, fico emocionado com toda a força que a Elis coloca nessa música. Sem dúvida é uma das maiores intérpretes que esse país já teve. Elis Regina, Clara Nunes e Marisa Monte são meus grandes amores! ♥️

You described exactly how the emotion is.. we love this song, and its so awesome that who dont know it feels the same ❤️

Elis Regina is one of 5he BEST BRAZILIAN ARTISTS!!! Her repertoire is intelligent, melodic and BEAUTIFUL!!!

Found some lyrics. Fixed some parts and added some timestamps to help you guys: 1:00 I don't want to talk, my greatest love, About things that I've learned from my vinyls I want to tell you how my life was like And about all that betided me 1:22 To live is better than dreaming I know that love is a pretty good thing But I also know that any singing is smaller than anyone's life 2:22 For this reason, watch out, darling, The danger is waiting around the corner They won and the way is now barred to us, the young ones. To embrace your brother and kiss your girl in the street is what your arms, your lips and your voice are made for 3:47 You ask me what's my new passion I say I'm wondered at all this, it feels like a new invention I'm going to stay at this city, I'm not coming back to the backwoods Because I sense the smell of the new season hovering in the wind I can learn anything through this wound, that lives within my heart 4:17 It's been a while since I saw you in a street With the wind blowing in your hair, Along young people, all joined together. 5:05 Hanging up on my mind's wall, The memory of this is the frame that hurts me most My pain is to realize that despite all we have done We are still the same as before and live... We are still the same and live as lived our parents 6:04 Our idols are still the same And the appearances don't disguise it at all You say that after them, no new idols have ever existed You may even say that I'm out-of-date, that I made up all this But you are the one who loves the past and can't see... But you are the one who loves the past and can't see that new times will always come 7:43 Now I know that the one who taught me of a new conscience and youth is now sitting at home, guarded by Lord, counting coins of vain money My pain is to realize that despite all we've done We are still the same and we live... We are still the same and we live... We are still the same and we live as lived our parents

I feel like there's an aura/spirit to Brazilian music you won't get from other places. I don't quite understand it, but I know I love it!

Elis sempre será um grande ícone para nossa cultura

I'm just learning how to sing and I love hearing from you explanations about how they sing

The last sentence of this song is: Despite all we've done we are still the same, and live as lived our parents.

Ninguém canta essa música, com tanta força e interpretação e tanta emoção como Elis Regina. Ela tem Garra!!!!

Wooow, I could feel all the emotion from here! Thank you so much for this reaction! God bless you!

She is the greatest singer of Brazilian music. I got emotional.

As lived our parents I don't want to talk, my greatest love, About things that I've learned from my vinyls I want to tell you how my life was like And about all that betided me To live is better than dreaming . I know that love is a pretty good thing But I also know that any place is smaller than anyone's life For this reason, watch out, darling, The danger is waiting around the corner They won and the way is now barred to us, the youngs. To embrace your brother and kiss your girl in the street is what your arms, your lips and your voice are made for You ask me what's my new passion I say I'm wondered at all this, it feels like a new invention I'm going to stay at this city, I'm not coming back to the backwoods Because I sense the smell of the new season hovering in the wind I can learn anything through this wound, that lives within my heart It's been a while since I saw you in a street With the wind blowing in your hair, Along young people, all joined together.

Aproveite. A Elis Regina era extraordinária. E a letra é fascinante.

This song is almost a statement, and she sings like she's reciting that statment to the people in the audience, that's why all the gesture and the strong face expressions. Elis Regina was not only a way above magnificent singer, but also a expectacular interpreter.

She was considered one of the best singers of the world. And in some musics she got to sing and smile or laugh at same time

Are you an angel, Beth? :) I'm so thankful for your coach reacts! Kisses and hugs to you. Elis Regina é maravilhosa!

Caso queira ver um desempenho mais "técnico", sugiro assistir sua versão de Águas de Março, com Tom Jobim. [If you want to see a more "technical" performance, I suggest watching her version of Águas de Março, with Tom Jobim.]

Eu venho aqui pra ver a reação de gringos e encontro só Brasileiros escrevendo Inglês .

Eu SEMPRE vou me emocionar com a Elis cantando essa música

El portugues es una lengua maravillosa! Tiene sonidos que no tenemos en otras lenguas de origen latino. Falta una reaccion de otras grandes: Gal Costa y Nana Caymmi. Thanks for this video!

Elis Regina is still considered one of the greatest singers that Brazil has ever had. Thanks for bringing her on your channel. Vai Brasil !!!

Elis é absurda, pqp, mesmo depois de anos escutando essa música os olhos ainda enchem dagua, letra fala muito bem dessa nostalgia carregada de inveja que paira na sociedade, fala do freio ao novo, do pessimismo, de coisas profundas e extremamente atuais.

Lovely!!! This song I used to listen to when I was on my "teen". I'm Brazilian. and I just love it when you guys out there react to the song like that. Of course you're a vocal coach and your point of view is different from those who just react only because they like or dislike it. Congratulations on the channel. You're brilliant and lovely!! Greetings from Brazil.

Ñ canso de ver esse show de interpretação....Feliz quem estava lá é teve o privilégio de assistir ao vivo.

It is a great song: tell us about a conflict of generatios, about the difficulty we face to make and let our children a better world. One of my favourite songs, ever.

Please, react the artist: Tim Maia - song: Você

Thanks so much! Elis sings with her soul. That is unique. Greetings from Brazil!

Woooowww. She is unique! Such a very strong voice. She is my favourite singer ever. Thanks for reacting her song.

.This song is really important and tells a lot about a period of Brazil's history; times when people couldn't express opinion and be themselves and the songs needed to say only things that the government allowed.She, as a singer, is angry and sad because she is being stoped, and so is the youth as well, so this song is an wish made from young people to let new things happen. The music literaly is saying: we still the same and living like our parent. New things have to come, try to stop them will just hurt more people. We still changing each and every day and the only thing we can do is aways try to grow with changes. (Brazil is passing througt a tough fase again and I hope that young people fight as the ones who did it before us).

Resumo do vídeo : "There is no thecnical term for that" 05:27

Love how your critic is also a voice coach. And thank you for presenting a Brazilian treasure to the world !

hey Beth, I'm Brazilian too. I just wanna say you are incredible, your smile is so so so beautiful and you look like someone really happy, I love that energy girl!! the way you praise how our singers use their voices is a beautiful thing to see. makes me wanna smile just like you. there are a lot of people from Brazil here and they are only talking about Elis (which is not wrong) but that is the 2° video I watch from your channel and the message at the end of this one made me feel something I don't know how to explain. every person is unique and special, you remind me that and I wanna thank you so much for it. keep doing your thing girl, you are unique too!

"Como nossos pais" canção do grande Belchior, salve Belchior, salve Elis Regina

This song is already 44 years old and believe me, here in Brazil, where it plays, everyone sings together, whole music. Listen Gal Costa and Milton Nascimento.

Terceiro react que assisto com tres pessoas diferentes. Chorei nas tres. Elis é alma!

Amo de paixão a Elis e amo ver pessoas falando bem dela💖

A música de Elis é forte e atualíssima. A nossa geração nova continua errando como nossos pais.

Resumindo: A Maior cantora do Brasil! Eterna Rainha!

Yes, the lyrics in this is soooooo powerful! This is revolution in her voice! I love Elis! You should also hear she singing "Aos nossos filhos".

Elis was a legendary brazilian singer. This song has spanned generations. Greetings from Brazil.

She is considered the greatest Brazilian female singer of all time

Queria ver comentarios dos gringos,mas soh tem brasuca escrevendo em ingles

She’s the best of all times ❤ Thank you for making these videos reacting to our wonderful Brazilian music!

I loved the observations you made for the technical and poetic reading of the work of this artist that we Brazilians love.

Another great performance of Elis Regina was "O bêbado e a Equilibrista".

"The expresion is the most important thing" That is your best female perfomer ever

One heck of a performance. Beth, you are a talented singer, great vid!

Eu só ouço, pela milésima vez, e choro. De novo.

I may say you have chosen maybe the best Brazilian singer to react.

this song makes me cry, it's so raw.. the lyrics are really beautiful.

Há artistas que tornam suas performances em verdadeiras orações. Elis Regina é uma dessas. Adorei a análise. Obrigado!

Essa música realmente tem história linda, a letra é perfeita com muito significado.

A interpretação da Elis é de arrepiar até hoje, e essa música não poderia ser mais atual..

You nailed Elis ❤️ she was all about expression: you feel her pain, her love, her loss. Why is she so angry here? You see, this was during the military dictatorship in Brazil. She’s angry cause of the lack of new ideas, new fight, new horizons. She points it to the back at the very end to show how our dreams are still so close to the ones our parents had. Not much changed. The beauty of it is that, although the the regimen was pretty closed down and censoring every freedom, the police was just to dumb to even realise what she was singing. Shout out to Belchior for writing such a beautiful piece.

eu me emociono toda vez que escuto e vejo essa interpretação... ainda mais nesses tempos

this is definitely the best reaction to this song. You didn't even understand the lyrics and was perfect on reading her performance!

Finally some brazilian singer! Next Milton Nascimento

Elis was tiny in size, but when on stage she was a beast. What a delivery.

Hi, I'm Brazilian and I love seeing your analyses. You picked a singer who is a source of pride for all of us, but, for you to better understand the way Elis sang in this song, you have to understand the context of my country and what was happening at the time. Brazil was in the midst of a military dictatorship and there was a movement of artists to wake up the people. Elis was giving a shout out, a call to the people!! Practically saying: "_Get up!! Let's fight for our freedom!!" And this song became a symbol of our fight for freedom! She was really angry!!

Tem uma criatividade fora do comum tem uma energia Elis 🎉❤ uma artista de grande estilo, apaixonante demais 🎉
