Carminho - A Bia da Mouraria
-
Nicolas Jaar amazing show in Lisbon, Portugal. He invited our lovely Carminho to participate in his gig. If you’re curious about Fado you should definitely listen to this! You won’t regret it.
Lyrics translation to english:I was crying because i didn’t see you. Now because i see you, i cry. But i only cry because i want, to see you everytime. The time goes running, When you talk and i listen, In this hours of our life, Every hour is a minute, When you’re close to me, I feel the owner of the world, But the time is so mean, Every hour is a second, Stay by my side, And never go away, So that my poor hearth, May live in this life one hour!

Amalia Rodrigues..Barco Negro
-
in keeping with the theme of fado that i seem to have adopted, this is amália rodrigues singing barco negro in henri verneuil’s 1955 film les amants du tage. a stunning performance. absolutely stunning.
if you turn on the closed caption button, the guy at the table translates the song into french for the lady in the fur coat, and it’ll give you the english translation. like carminho’s meu amor marinheiro, this is another fado that encapsulates the emotions of the genre exquisitely.
