About This Track

“Chega de saudade” (often translated to English as “No More Blues”) is considered the first song. Composed by Antônio Carlos Jobim (music) and Vinícius de Moraes (lyrics) it became popular in this interpretation by João Gilberto. It was first recorded by Elizete Cardoso on her album Canção do Amor Demais but the public did not take notice of that release. Gilberto’s own recording, released in July, 1958 as a single, made it a hit.

    I see the translations below.... I find that to convey the depth of feeling and longing in what Joao Gilberto is singing is difficult... Saudade... is not just nostalgia... its longing, but the longing that makes your soul and body ache...

    A wonderful song to start the day with, while enjoying a nice cup of coffee or tea if that's your thing. Part of why I like this song is the tonalities, not so much the lyrics because I don't understand them, but can appreciate the subtleness of the lyrical style and rhythm of the guitar.

    'Go, my sadness and tell that without her it is not possible Say it with a prayer returning because I can no longer suffer. Enough nostalgia (1) the reality is that without her There is no peace, no beauty all is gloom and melancholy that does not go away from me does not go away. But if you return if you come back, what beautiful What crowds there are fewer fish that swim in the sea kisses that I would give mouth ... (string) in my arms Hugs will millions of hugs, so close stuck like this, so shut up hugs and kisses and caresses endless to finish with this story that you live far away from me." - that what the online translator gave me in English : ) At least is something!

    What a swett, swett feeling! @ Ferdokki: If you want to know the meaning, you can always google "Chega de Saudade " & "lyrics" , and then - via the online translator (portuguese to english), you will be able to understand what he is saying : ) That's what I do with the most of the wonderful Brazilian music. The lyrics of Chega de Saudade are very touching and sincere, too. Love bossa nova so much!!!
