Grant Lee Phillips does an amazing job on this song. If you like his voice, you should check out 1 Giant Leap, a fantastic documentary featuring some amazing talent, including GLP, Maxi-Jazzy from Faithless and numerous other artists I can't think of right now. Great Project.
Cesaria Evora is one of those voices you either love or can't stand. I'm one in the first group. Love anything she does. Love the mood she creates. 'Sodade', I believe is a type of music and the meaning of the word I believe is "longing".
My suggestion, if you don't like a song, there are thousands of other stations out there that are bound to cater to your particular taste...or start your own station. But just because you don't like it or don't understand it, doesn't mean it's bad.
Just switch!
... A beautiful tribute, yea! ...
Well said!
I don't think negative responses to songs really matter. COULD YOU HAVE DONE BETTER?
If so, why aren't you getting any airplay? HMM?
