Me dê motivo pra ir embora
Estou vendo a hora de te perder
Me dê motivo, vai ser agora
Tô indo embora, o que fazer?
Tô indo embora, não faz sentido
Ficar contigo, melhor assim
É nessa hora que o homem chora
A dor é forte demais pra mim
 
Me dê motivo, foi jogo sujo
E agora eu fujo pra não sofrer
Fui teu amigo, te dei o mundo
Você foi fundo, quis me perder
Agora é tarde, não tem mais jeito
O teu defeito não tem perdão
Eu vou à luta, que a vida é curta
Não vale a pena sofrer em vão
 
Pode crer você pôs tudo a perder
Não podia me fazer o que fez
E por mais que você tente negar
Me dê motivo
Pode crer eu vou sair por aí
E mostrar que posso ser bem feliz
Encontrar alguém que saiba me dar
Me dar motivo
Me dar motivo.

             Eithne Pádraigín Ní Bhraonáin (anglicised as Enya Patricia Brennan, /ˈɛnjə/; born 17 May 1961), known professionally as Enya, is an Irish singer, songwriter, record producer and musician. Born into a musical family and raised in the Irish-speaking area of Gweedore in County Donegal, Enya began her music career when she joined her family's Celtic folk band Clannad in 1980 on keyboards and backing vocals. She left in 1982 with their manager and producer Nicky Ryan to pursue a solo career, with Ryan's wife Roma Ryan as her lyricist. Enya developed her sound over the following four years with multitracked vocals and keyboards with elements of new age, Celtic, classical, church, and folk music. She has sung in ten languages.

            Enya's first projects as a solo artist included soundtrack work for The Frog Prince (1984) and the 1987 BBC documentary series The Celts, which was released as her debut album, Enya (1987). She signed with Warner Music UK, which granted her artistic freedom and minimal interference from the label. The commercial and critical success of Watermark (1988) propelled her to worldwide fame, helped by the international top-10 hit single "Orinoco Flow". This was followed by the multi-million-selling albums Shepherd Moons (1991), The Memory of Trees (1995) and A Day Without Rain (2000). Sales of the latter and its lead single, "Only Time", surged in the United States following its use in the media coverage of the September 11 attacks. Following Amarantine (2005) and And Winter Came... (2008), Enya took an extended break from music; she returned in 2012 and released Dark Sky Island (2015).

          She is Ireland's best-selling solo artist and second-best-selling artist behind U2, with a discography that has sold 26.5 million certified albums in the United States and an estimated 75 million records worldwide, making her one of the best-selling music artists of all time. A Day Without Rain (2000) remains the best-selling new-age album, with an estimated 16 million copies sold worldwide. Enya has won awards including seven World Music Awards, four Grammy Awards for Best New Age Album, and an Ivor Novello Award. She was nominated for na Academy Award and a Golden Globe Award for "May It Be", written for The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001).

           "Only Time" is a song by Irish singer, songwriter and musician Enya, released on 13 November 2000 as the lead single to her fifth studio album, A Day Without Rain (2000). The song reached number one in Canada, Germany, Poland and Switzerland, number two in Austria, and became Enya's only top-ten single as a solo artist in the United States, peaking at number ten on the Billboard Hot 100.

Who can say where the road goes?

Where the day flows?

Only time

 

And who can say if your love grows

As your heart chose?

Only time

 

Who can say why your heart sighs

As your love flies?

Only time

 

And who can say why your heart cries

When your love lies?

Only time

 

Who can say when the roads meet

That love might be

In your heart?

 

And who can say when the day sleeps

If the night keeps all your heart?

Night keeps all your heart

 

Who can say if your love grows

As your heart chose?

Only time

 

And who can say where the road goes?

Where the day flows?

Only time

 

Who knows?

Only time

 

Who knows?

Only time.

            Marie Dionne Warwick (/ˈdiːɒn/DEE-on; née Warrick; born December 12, 1940) is an American singer, actress, television host, and former Goodwill Ambassador for the Food and Agriculture Organization.

            Warwick ranks among the 40 biggest hit makers between 1955 and 1999, based on the Billboard Hot 100 Pop Singles Charts. She is one of the most-charted female vocalists of all time, with 56 of her singles making the Billboard Hot 100 between 1962 and 1998, and 80 singles making all Billboard charts combined.

             How Many Times Can We Say Goodbye is an album recorded by Dionne Warwick, her sixth for the Arista label (retitled So Amazing in the UK). It was recorded during the spring of 1983 and was released that fall. The LP was originally issued as number AL 8-8104 in the Arista Catalog.

                 Despite strong reviews, it was a commercial disappointment, stalling at number 57 on Billboard's album chart. Two singles came from the album, "How Many Times Can We Say Goodbye" (a duet with album producer Luther Vandross) which hit #4 Adult Contemporary and #27 on Billboard's Hot 100 and the upbeat "Got A Date" which hit #45 on Billboard's R&B chart.

Here we are so close to the end now

Still holdin' on, we try and pretend now

Clinging to love we both know is dying (It's dying)

We've tried and tried to find us a way out

But darling, our dreams have now all been played out

Still we go on hopelessly trying

 

But how many times can we say goodbye

And how many times can we see love die

And how many times can we give it one more try

Before we really say goodbye

Mmm, goodbye (Goodbye)

 

We're so in love, but wrong for each other

Each hurt that heals brings on another

Both of us used and both of us using (Hey, hey)

Darling, it's time that we stop pretending (Stop)

There's just no way to rewrite our ending (No way)

We're caught in this game and we both know we're losing

 

Oh, but how many times can we say goodbye

Hey, how many times can we feel love die

Tell me how many times can we give it one more try (One more)

Before we really say goodbye

Yeah...oh...ho... (Whoa...oh...oh...)

 

How many times can we break up and make up

Both of our hearts refusing to wake up

Just can't go on (No) and on living a lie

Though I'll always love you

 

How many times (Ooh) can we say goodbye

Oh...and how many times can we live this lie

Hey, how many times can we give it one more try (One more try)

How any times before we really (Really, really) say goodbye

Bye-bye (Goodbye) Bye-bye

(Goodbye) Bye-b-b-bye-bye-bye

(Goodbye) Ey, hey, goodbye.

ANO: 2014

 

              Francisco de Morais Alves, mais conhecido por Francisco Alves, Chico Alves ou Chico Viola (Rio de janeiro, 19 de agosto de 1898 — Pindamonhangaba, 27 de setembro de 1952), foi um dos mais populares  cantores do Brasil na primeira metade do Século XX, e considerado por muitos o maior do país. A qualidade de seu trabalho lhe rendeu em 1933, pelo radialista César Ladeira, a alcunha de "Rei da Voz". Foi, ainda, peça decisiva para a construção de vários gêneros populares da música.

                Alves era uma figura alta e magra; andava sempre elegante e bem penteado; muito sorridente e avesso às bebidas. Como seu ídolo Vicente Celestino, tinha uma voz de tenor mas, com o tempo, consolidou-se em barítono. De origem humilde, deixou uma vasta produção de mais de quinhentos discos; sua morte trágica causou imensa comoção no país, num sentimento que um de seus biógrafos, David Nasser (que também era amigo e compositor de algumas músicas por ele interpretadas), escreveu: "Tu, só tu, madeira fria, sentirás toda agonia do silêncio do cantor". A despeito disso, muitos no meio artístico o consideravam bruto, de poucos amigos e vários desafetos.

           Foi dele a primeira gravação de disco elétrico feita no Brasil. Graças a ele compositores como Cartola, Heitor dos Prazeres ou Ismael Silva vieram a ser consagrados, o mesmo ocorrendo com várias canções que interpretou, como Ai! que saudade da Amélia, ou a primeira gravação do samba Aquarela do Brasil do parceiro Ary Barroso. Representava para o país, quando de sua morte, o que o cantor Maurice Chevalier era para a França: um "caso raro" — como então registrou o Jornal do Brasil.

Adeus, adeus, adeus

Adeus

Adeus, adeus, adeus

Cinco letras que choram

Num soluço de dor

Adeus, adeus, adeus

É como o fim de uma estrada

Cortando a encruzilhada

Ponto final de um romance de amor

 

Quem parte tem os olhos rasos d'água

Ao sentir a grande mágoa

Por se despedir de alguém

Quem fica, também fica chorando

Com o coração penando

Querendo partir também

Adeus, adeus, adeus

Adeus, adeus, adeus.

            Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner CBE (born 2 October 1951), known as Sting, is an English musician, singer, songwriter, and actor. He was the principal songwriter, lead singer, and bassist for new wave rock band the Police from 1977 to 1984, and launched a solo career in 1985. He has included elements of rock, jazz, reggae, classical, new-age and worldbeat in his music.

             As a solo musician and a member of the Police, Sting has received 17 Grammy Awards: he won Song of the Year for "Every Breath You Take", three Brit Awards, including Best British Male Artist in 1994 and Outstanding Contribution in 2002, a Golden Globe, an Emmy and four nominations for the Academy Award for Best Original Song. In 2019, he received a BMI Award for "Every Breath You Take" becoming the most played song in radio history. In 2002, Sting received the Ivor Novello Award for Lifetime Achievement from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors and was also inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Police in 2003. In 2000, he received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for recording. In 2003, Sting received a CBE from Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace for services to music. He was made a Kennedy Center Honoree at the White House in 2014, and was awarded the Polar Music Prize in 2017.

            With the Police, Sting became one of the world's best-selling music artists. Solo and with the Police combined, he has sold over 100 million records. In 2006, Paste ranked him 62nd of the 100 best living songwriters. He was 63rd of VH1's 100 greatest artists of rock, and 80th of Q magazine's 100 greatest musical stars of the 20th century. He has collaborated with other musicians on songs such as "Money for Nothing" with Dire Straits, "Rise & Fall" with Craig David, "All for Love" with Bryan Adams and Rod Stewart, "You Will Be My Ain True Love" with Alison Krauss, and introduced the North African music genre raï to Western audiences through the hit song "Desert Rose" with Cheb Mami. In 2018, he released the álbum 44/876, a collaboration with Jamaican musician Shaggy, which won the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album in 2019.

             The songs are still great and presumably the assumption is that many people who have invested in a CD player since the time of the last retrospective will welcome a fresh chance to buy in to this superb legacy. As a straight-down-the-line exercise in milking the market, 'Greatest Hits' thus takes some beating.

               "So Lonely" is a song by English rock band The Police, released as the third and final single in November 1978 from their debut studio album Outlandos d'Amour (1978), and again in February 1980 as a re-release. The song uses a reggae style, and featured Sting on lead vocals.

"So Lonely" has since been covered by a variety of artists, such as Limbeck and The Militia Group.

            The song is known for a famous mondegreen where the title is often misheard as "Sue Lawley", a broadcaster famous for presenting Desert Island Discs on BBC Radio 4 from 1988 to 2006.

Well someone told me yesterday

That when you throw your love away

You act as if you just don't care

You look as if you're going somewhere

 

But I just can't convince myself

I couldn't live with no one else

And I can only play that part

And sit and nurse my broken heart

 

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely, so lonely

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely

So lonely, so lonely

 

Now no one's knocked upon my door

For a thousand years or more

All made up and nowhere to go

Welcome to this one man show

 

Just take a seat they're always free

No surprise no mystery

In this theatre that I call my soul

I always play the starring role

 

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely, so lonely

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely

So lonely, so lonely

 

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely, so lonely

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely

 

Lonely, I'm so lonely

I feel so alone

I feel low

I feel so

Feel so low

I feel low, low, low

I feel low, low, low

I feel low, low, low

I feel low, low, low

I feel low, low, low

Low, I feel low

I feel low

I feel low

I feel so lonely

I feel so lonely

I feel so lonely, lonely, lonely, lone

Lonely, lone

I feel so alone, yeah

 

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely, so lonely

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely

(I feel so alone, I feel so alone, I feel so lonely)

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely

(I feel so alone, I feel so alone, I feel so lonely)

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely

              The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (Italian: Il buono, il brutto, il cattivo, lit. '"The good, the ugly, the bad"') is a 1966 Italian epic Spaghetti Western film directed by Sergio Leone and starring Clint Eastwood as "the Good", Lee Van Cleef as "the Bad", and Eli Wallach as "the Ugly". Its screenplay was written by Age & Scarpelli, Luciano Vincenzoni and Leone (with additional screenplay material and dialogue provided by an uncredited Sergio Donati), based on a story by Vincenzoni and Leone. Director of photography Tonino Delli Colli was responsible for the film's sweeping widescreen cinematography, and Ennio Morricone composed the film's score including its main theme. It is an Italian-led production with co-producers in Spain, West Germany and the United States.

              The film is known for Leone's use of long shots and close-up cinematography, as well as his distinctive use of violence, tension, and stylistic gunfights. The plot revolves around three gunslingers competing to find fortune in a buried cache of Confederate gold amid the violent chaos of the American Civil War (specifically the New Mexico Campaign in 1862), while participating in many battles and duels along the way. The film was the third collaboration between Leone and Clint Eastwood, and the second with Lee Van Cleef.

              The Good, the Bad and the Ugly was marketed as the third and final installment in the Dollars Trilogy, following A Fistful of Dollars and For a Few Dollars More. The film was a financial success, grossing over $25 million at the box office, and is credited with having catapulted Eastwood into stardom. Due to general disapproval of the Spaghetti Western genre at the time, critical reception of the film following its release was mixed, but it gained critical acclaim in later years.

This land is mine, God gave this land to me

This brave and ancient land to me

And when the morning sun reveals her hills and plain

Then I see a land where children can run free

 

So take my hand and walk this land with me

And walk this lovely land with me

Though I am just a man, when you are by my side

With the help of God, I know I can be strong

 

Though I am just a man, when you are by my side

With the help of God, I know I can be strong

 

To make this land our home

If I must fight, I'll fight to make this land our own

Until I die, this land is mine.

YEAR: 1962

 

         William John Evans (August 16, 1929 – September 15, 1980) was an American jazz pianist and composer who mostly played in trios. His use of impressionist harmony, inventive interpretation of traditional jazz repertoire, block chors, and trademark rhythmically independent, "singing" melodic lines continues to influence jazz pianists today.

               Born in Plainfield, New Jersey, in 1929, he was classically trained at Southeastern Louisiana University and the Mannes School of Music, where he majored in composition and received the Artist Diploma. In 1955, he moved to New York City, where he worked with bandleader and theorist George Russell. In 1958, Evans joined Miles Davis's sextet, which in 1959, then immersed in modal jazz, recorded Kind of Blue, the best-selling jazz album of all time. During that time, Evans was also playing with Chet Baker for the album Chet.

            In late 1959, Evans left the Miles Davis band and began his career as a leader, with bassist Scott LaFaro and drummer Paul Motian, a group now regarded as a seminal modern jazz trio. In 1961, ten days after finishing an engagement at the New York Village Vanguard jazz club, LaFaro died in a car accident. After months of seclusion, Evans reemerged with a new trio, featuring bassist Chuck Israels.

          In 1963, Evans recorded Conversations with Myself, a solo album using the unconventional technique of overdubbing himself. In 1966, he met bassist Eddie Gómez, with whom he worked for 11 years.

             Many of Evans's compositions, such as "Waltz for Debby", have become standards, played and recorded by many artists. Evans received 31 Grammy nominations and seven awards, and was inducted into the Down Beat Jazz Hall of Fame.

              "Polka Dots and Moonbeams" is a popular song with music by Jimmy Van Heusen and lyrics by Johnny Burke, published in 1940. It was Frank Sinatra's first hit recorded with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra. The song is one of the top 100 most-frequently recorded jazz standards with arrangements by Gil Evans and others and notable recordings by Bill Evans, Blue Mitchell, Wes Montgomery, Sarah Vaughan (for the 1954 album Sarah Vaughan with Clifford Brown, and the 1957 album Swingin' Easy), Bud Powell, Lester Young, Gerry Mulligan, Lou Donaldson, Dexter Gordon and many others American songwriter and guitarist John Denver also covered the song on his 1976 Spirit album. Bob Dylan covered this song in his 2016 album Fallen Angels.

          The song has a notable lyric: the man discovers love at a country dance by accidentally bumping into a woman who has a pug nose. The others at the dance are looking strange at this, since her nose makes her someone they wouldn't think romantically about. But he has the last laugh: she becomes the love of his life, and he settles down with her.

           During the song's first year, a fashion designer even created a "Polka Dots and Moonbeams" fabric print as part of a series of prints inspired by popular music.

          Wes Montgomery's version would later be sampled in Doja Cat's 2018 single, Mooo!

              Um pouco mais de um ano após a morte da "Diva dos pés descalços" a 17 de Dezembro de 2011 foi lançado esta segunda-feira no mundo inteiro "Mãe carinhosa", o álbum póstumo da cantora Cabo Verdiana Cesária Évora, um novo disco composto por 13 canções gravadas entre 1997 e 2006.                                         Cesária Évora (Mindelo, 27 de agosto de 1941 – Mindelo, 17 de dezembro de 2011) foi a cantora de maior reconhecimento internacional de toda a história da música popular cabo-verdiana. Apesar de ser sucedida em diversos outros géneros musicais, Cesária Évora foi maioritariamente relacionada com a morna, por isso também apelidada de "rainha da morna". Era conhecida como a diva dos pés descalços. O filme Tchindas presta tributo a sua música.

          Em 2004 conquistou um prémio Grammy de melhor álbum de world music contemporânea. O presidente francês, Nicolas Sarkozy, distinguiu-a, em 2009, com a medalha da Legião de Honra entregue pela ministra da Cultura francesa Christine Albanel.

              Em setembro de 2011, depois de cancelar um conjunto de concertos por se encontrar muito debilitada, a editora, Lusafrica, anunciou que a cantora pôs um ponto final na longa carreira.
