| mauguima (sewers) | Posted: Jan 18, 2013 - 07:31 It's even more beautiful because of her dialect. For Portuguese-speaking people it sounds deliciously charming (for me at least). "Sodade és mia terra San Nic'lau..." |
| Easyrider (Catania,Sicily,Italy) | Posted: Jan 07, 2013 - 00:23 What an angelic voice and such beautiful songs,sadly missed but long remembered,thanks... |

| mgkiwi (North of South and a little East of West) | Posted: Nov 05, 2012 - 06:00 Very beautiful song! Thanks RP for introducing me to this wonderful singer! |
| N1CO (Louviers, France) | Posted: Oct 16, 2012 - 05:41 It probably would be boring by anyone else. But the unique emotional vibrations in her voice make it a masterpiece.  |
| cubaninlondon (London) | Posted: Oct 16, 2012 - 05:37 Beautiful Cesaria. We miss you so much. |

| isparos9 (Venice, Italy) | Posted: Jan 19, 2012 - 05:30 There is no way to thank her for the great music, the beautiful singing and all the elements of her art, that make us full of emotions and feelings. Hope she is able to look down to us all and realise how much she has influenced our lives! Thank you Mrs. Evora! |

It is the fragile, sweet cast of hollowness that we refuse to let go for those things that pass that we never want to go. It is an intimate, human desire to preserve and make whole for ourselves a world that is constantly changing. This song reminds me of this feeling. It is beyond language. So is the singer. Well said. And indeed, a beautiful song. |

Amandio Cabral (b. 1934) - a Capeverdean singer who currently lives in Californiaoutside Cape Verde. Amandio Cabral, himself, 76 y. old, is that censorship to view the video of Cesaria Evora?....Can you believe it?...I think it is a false pretext and can not imagine that makes any sense. "Armando Zeferino Soares, (1920 in São Nicolau, Cape Verde - April 3, 2007) was a Capeverdeancomposer, author of the famous song Sodade. He was born in Praia Branca in the island of São Nicolau and worked there as a salesman.He had several disputes due to the authorship of Sodade with other composers, including Amândio Cabral and Luís Morais. Finally on December 2006, the court declared Armando Soares the author of the famous song. " wikipedia |
