Pyon Pyon Kyuu!~ Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Well aside from the boring English and American people, Reborn has a few people from unknown cultures! And I totally want to share stuff about my country's culture, as well as hear about others. So feel free to share music and stuff from your country. Although this is not played 100% by Portuguese people, it is close to Portuguese music. I could post our REAL traditional music (Fado) but no one like that... I kind of do buut.... Meh... Well here it is! Later I will post some Portuguese rock if this thread goes anyways! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ysera Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) Brazil isn't just Samba and Carnaval.. We have many peculiar genres. Much like this one, for example, which was called MPB (Musica Popular Brasileira) or Brazillian Popular Music. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRFw5u5wR4c Tem dias que a gente se sente ||||| There are days when we feel Como quem partiu ou morreu ||||| Like who's gone or dead A gente estancou de repente ||||| Either we've suddenly stopped Ou foi o mundo então que cresceu... |||||Or it was the rest of the world that grew...

The word saudade is kind of a noun-ization of the verb "To miss something". When we say "I miss eating potatoes", we say "tenho saudade de comer batatas".

Maelstrom Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Mexican National athem, which I was introduced to by a spanish station back home that was apparently stationed in Juarez. It would play it every night at midnight. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58aX43MZ3NE And a pop song popular probably about 8 years ago while I was still in high school that I would hear on that same station.
