"
When Elis Regina has recorded "Aguas de Marco" (Waters of March) with composer Tom Jobim, it was not her first rendition of the song, which comes from this album, with a splendid arrangement by Cesar Camargo Mariano who, by the way, penned wonderful arrangements to all the smash hits in this great and highly recommendable disc. Here you'll find the best vocal renditions of "Nada Será como Antes" and "Cais", both composed by Milton Nascimento, of "Atras da Porta" by Francis Hime and her great smash hit "Casa no Campo". Also "Me Deixa em Paz" by Ivan Lins. Very very great."

Something for the Heart.

"Who says this woman can't make me cry? Who says this woman can't make me dance? Here she is...the quintessence of silent longing as well as volatile and at times savage expression. Turn out the lights for 20 ANOS BLUE. The arrangement fits her like a flowing gown, and the words will touch your soul. Listen to her articulation...perfection, every syllable crafted to tweak your heart. There is nostalgia, lamentation, joy, romance, mystery and magic. Listen in the dark to this fallen Angel and be glad she left us the essence of her beauty."
