Ive Mendes

Há dois dias atrás, de regresso a casa, qual não foi o meu espanto quando escutei no rádio do carro a voz desta “cantora descoberta” !!
Tive muita pena de não poder ir assistir ao espectáculo ao vivo na noite do dia 10, no remodelado Cinema Batalha.
O CD é todo muito bonito, uniforme na apresentação de melodias suaves e, por vezes, encantadoras. Pena, para mim, que o português adocicado do Brasil tenha de ser misturado com a língua inglesa...
De qualquer forma, congratulo-me com a divulgação de mais uma voz da nova música brasileira!

Aqui vai um “cheirinho” das letras das canções (Ive Mendes é a compositora de quase todas elas), canções que ficaram a bailar na minha cabecinha musical durante o fim de semana.
A primeira, tem uma versão portuguesa no disco, mas é mais “curtinha”... (quem a identifica?)
A segunda é o único “cover” do CD mas quem ouvir esquece facilmente o original dos Chicago.

Night Night
I don’t want to live like before anymore
Now I know what life is for
I want to live for pleasure, In peace beside you, somewhere

Special dinner by candlelight
To feel your body part of mine
You’re guessing what I need
I’m giving you a wonderful time, we enjoy life

Night night, night inside your eyes
People are walking alone and I’m waiting for you, only you
Night night, night inside your eyes
People are passing by and I’m waiting for you, just for you

This involuntary, impulsive desire in our everyday life
Car, phone, photos, piano, video, night Supermarket
Our movie could be love

Special dinner by candlelight
Now I know how I want to spend my life
You are the kind of person I was dreaming of

Night night, night inside your eyes
People are walking alone and I’m waiting for you, only you
Night night, night inside your eyes
People are passing by and I’m waiting for you, just for you

Night night, night inside your eyes
People are walking alone and I’m waiting for you, only you
Night night, night inside your eyes
People are passing by and I’m waiting for you, just for you

Night night, night inside your eyes
People are walking alone and I’m waiting for you, only you
Night night, night inside your eyes
People are passing by and I’m waiting for you, just for you

I always, I always will wait for you
Meu amor sera sempre seu, sempre


If You Leave Me Now
If you leave me now
you'll take away the biggest part of me
oooh no, baby please don't go

And If you leave me now
You'll take away the very heart of me
oooh no, baby please don't go
oooh girl, I just want you to stay

A love like ours is love that's hard to find
how could we let it slip away

We've come too far to leave it all behind
how could we end it all this way

When tomorrow comes and we both feel bad
the things we said today

A love like ours is love that's hard to find
how could we let it slip away

We've come too far to leave it all behind
how could we end it all this way

When tomorrow comes and we both feel bad
the things we said today

If you leave me now
you'll take away the biggest part of me
oooh no, baby please don't go

oooh doll, just got to have you by my side
oooh no, baby please don't go
oooh my my, just got to have your lovin


E assim, embora sinta uma certa animosidade perante as segundas–feiras, desejo a todos um óptimo início de semana. Dêem o "Salto"!
