Teus
olhos castanhos
De
encantos tamanhos
São
pecados meus,
São
estrelas fulgentes,
Brilhantes,
luzentes,
Caídas
dos céus,
Teus
olhos risonhos
São
mundos, são sonhos,
São a
minha cruz,
Teus
olhos castanhos
De
encantos tamanhos
São
raios de luz.
Olhos
azuis são ciúme
E
nada valem para mim,
Olhos
negros são queixume
De
uma tristeza sem fim,
Olhos
verdes são traição
São
crueis como punhais,
Olhos
bons com coração
Os
teus, castanhos leais.

Morena,
dos olhos d'água,
Tira
os seus olhos do mar.
Vem ver que a vida ainda vale
O sorriso que eu tenho
Pra lhe dar.
Descansa
um meu pobre peito
Que
jamais enfrenta o mar,
Mas que tem abraço estreito, morena,
Com jeito de lhe agradar.
Vem ouvir lindas histórias
Que
por seu amor sonhei.
Vem
saber quantas vitórias, morena,
Por
mares que só eu sei.
Morena,
dos olhos d'água,
Tira
os seus olhos do mar.
Vem ver que a vida ainda vale
O sorriso que eu tenho
Pra lhe dar.
Seu
homem foi-se embora,
Prometendo
voltar já.
Mas as ondas não tem hora, morena,
De partir ou de voltar.
Passa a vela e vai-se embora
Passa
o tempo e vai também.
Mas
meu canto 'inda lhe implora, morena,
Agora,
morena, vem.
Morena,
dos olhos d'água,
Tira os seus olhos do mar.
Vem ver que a vida ainda vale
O
sorriso que eu tenho
Pra
lhe dar.

Charles
Edward Anderson Berry (October 18, 1926 – March 18, 2017) was an American
singer and songwriter, and one of the pioneers of rock and roll music.
Nicknamed the "Father of Rock and Roll", Berry refined and developed rhythm
and blues into the major elements that made rock and roll distinctive with
songs such as "Maybellene" (1955), "Roll Over Beethoven"
(1956), "Rock and Roll Music" (1957) and "Johnny B. Goode"
(1958). Writing lyrics that focused on teen life and consumerism, and
developing a music style that included guitar solos and showmanship, Berry was
a major influence on subsequent rock music.
Born into
a middle-class African-American family in St. Louis, Missouri, Berry had an
interest in music from an early age and gave his first public performance at Sumner
High School. While still a high school student he was convicted of armed
robbery and was sent to a reformatory, where he was held from 1944 to 1947. After his release, Berry settled
into married life and worked at an automobile assembly plant. By
early 1953, influenced by the guitar riffs and showmanship techniques of the
blues musician T-Bone Walker, Berry began performing with the Johnnie Johnson
Trio. His break came when he traveled to Chicago in May 1955 and met Muddy
Waters, who suggested he contact Leonard Chess, of Chess Records. With Chess,
he recorded "Maybellene"—Berry's adaptation of the country song
"Ida Red"—which sold over a million copies, reaching number one
on Billboard magazine's rhythm and blues chart.
By the end of the 1950s, Berry was an established star,
with several hit records and film appearances and a lucrative touring career. He
had also established his own St. Louis nightclub, Berry's Club Bandstand. He
was sentenced to three years in prison in January 1962 for offenses under the Mann
Act—he had transported a 14-year-old girl across state lines. After his release
in 1963, Berry had several more hits, including "No Particular Place to Go",
"You Never Can Tell", and "Nadine". But these did not
achieve the same success, or lasting impact, of his 1950s songs, and by the 1970s
he was more in demand as a nostalgic performer, playing his past hits with
local backup bands of variable quality. In 1972 he reached a new level of
achievement when a rendition of "My Ding-a-Ling" became his only
record to top the charts. His insistence on being paid in cash led in 1979 to a four-month jail
sentence and community service, for tax evasion.
Berry was
among the first musicians to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of
Fame on its opening in 1986; he was cited for having "laid the groundwork
for not only a rock and roll sound but a rock and roll stance." Berry is
included in several of Rolling Stone magazine's "greatest of all
time" lists; he was ranked fifth on its 2004 and 2011 lists of the 100
Greatest Artists of All Time. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs That
Shaped Rock and Roll includes three of Berry's: "Johnny B. Goode",
"Maybellene", and "Rock and Roll Music". Berry's
"Johnny B. Goode" is the only rock-and-roll song included on the Voyager
Golden Record.
"Maybellene"
was one of the first rock and roll songs. It was written and recorded in 1955
by Chuck Berry, adapted in part from the Western swing fiddle tune "Ida
Red". Berry's song told the story of a hot rod race and a broken romance,
the lyrics describing a man driving a V8 Ford and chasing his unfaithful
girlfriend in her Cadillac Coupe DeVille. It was released in July 1955 as a single
by Chess Records, of Chicago, Illinois. Berry's first single and his first hit,
"Maybellene" is considered a pioneering rock and roll song. Rolling
Stone magazine wrote of it, "Rock & roll guitar starts here." The
record was an early instance of the complete rock and roll package: youthful
subject matter; a small, guitar-driven combo; clear diction; and an atmosphere
of unrelenting excitement.
The song was a major hit with both black and white
audiences. It has received numerous honors and awards. Soon
after its initial release, cover versions were recorded by several other
artists. The title is misspelled "Maybelline" on several releases.
Maybelline, why can't you be true?
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true?
You've started back doing the things you used to do
As I was motivatin' over the hill
I saw Maybelline in a coup de ville
A Cadillac a-rollin' on the open road
Nothin' will outrun my V8 Ford
The cadillac doin' 'bout ninety-five
She's bumper to bumber rollin' side by side
Maybelline, why can't you be true?
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true?
You've started back doing the things you used to do
Pink in the mirror on top of the hill
It's just like swallowin' up a medicine pill
First thing I saw that Cadillac grille
Doin' a hundred and ten gallopin' over that hill
Offhill curve, a downhill stretch
Me and that Cadillac neck by neck
Maybelline, why can't you be true?
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true?
You've started back doing the things you used to do
The Cadillac pulled up ahead of the Ford
The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more
It then got cloudy and it started to rain
I tooted my horn for a passin' lead
The rain water blowin' all under my hood
I knew that was doin' my motor good
Maybelline, why can't you be true?
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true?
You've started back doing the things you used to do
The motor cooled down, the heat went down
And that's when I heard that highway sound
The Cadillac a-sittin' like a ton of lead
A hundred and ten a half a mile ahead
The Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still
And I caught Maybelline at the top of the hill
Maybelline, why can't you be true?
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true?
You've started back doing the things you used to do.
FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE

SONGWRITER: LIONEL BART
COUNTRY: U.K.
ALBUM: FROM RUSSIA WUTH LOVE
LABEL: PARLOPHONE
GENRE: EASY LISTENING
YEAR:1963
From
Russia with Love is a 1963 spy film and the second in the James Bond series produced
by Eon Productions, as well as Sean Connery's second role as MI6 agent James Bond.
It was directed by Terence Young, produced by Albert R. Broccoli and Harry
Saltzman, and written by Richard Maibaum and Johanna Harwood, based on Ian
Fleming's similarly named 1957 novel. In the film, Bond is sent to assist in
the defection of Soviet consulate clerk Tatiana Romanova in Turkey, where SPECTRE
plans to avenge Bond's killing of Dr. No.
Following
the success of Dr. No, United Artists greenlit a sequel and doubled the budget
available for the producers. In addition to filming on location in Turkey, the
action scenes were shot at Pinewood Studios, Buckinghamshire, and in Scotland. Production ran over budget and
schedule, and was rushed to finish by its scheduled October 1963 release date.
From
Russia with Love was a critical and commercial success. It took in more than
$78 million in worldwide box-office receipts, far more than its $2 million
budget and more than its predecessor Dr. No, thereby becoming a blockbuster
in 1960s cinema.
This film
also marked the debut of Desmond Llewelyn as Q, a role he would play for 36
years (and seventeen films) until The World Is Not Enough in 1999.
Matt
Monro(born Terence Edward Parsons, 1 December 1930 – 7 February 1985) was an
English singer who became one of the most popular entertainers on the
international music scene during the 1960s and 1970s. Known as The Man with the
Golden Voice, he filled cabarets, nightclubs, music halls, and stadiums across
the world in his 30-year career. AllMusic has described Monro as "one of
the most underrated pop vocalists of the '60s", who "possessed the
easiest, most perfect baritone in the business". His recordings include
the UK Top 10 hits: "Portrait of My Love", "My Kind of Girl",
"Softly As I Leave You", "Walk Away" and "Yesterday"(Originally
by The Beatles). He also recorded several film themes such as "From Russia
with Love" for the James Bond film of the same name, "Born Free"
for the film of the same name and "On Days Like These" for The
Italian Job.
