One day i had to leave my country, calm beach and palm tree...
That day i couldn't even cry
And i forgot that outside there would be other men
But today, but today, but today, i don't know why
I feel a little more blue than then
The day carmen miranda died
They put a photograph in the magazine
Her dead mouth with red lipstick smiled
And people cried, i was about ten
But today, but today, but today, i don't know why
I feel a little more blue than then…
One morning they came around to take to jail
I smiled at them and said – all right
But alone in that same day's nigth i cried and cried again
But today, but today, but today, i don't know why
I feel a little more blue than then…
One night i saw a mexican film
These twin brothers tryed to kill each other
She opened her arms and got two bullets
And died sweetly without a sigh
But tonight, but tonight, but tonight, i don't know why
I feel a little more blue than then
One day i went down to the underground but
I missed the last train
And now that i'm just looking around
I feel a little more blue than then
Looking around…
I don’t know why
I feel a little more blue than then…
Caetano Emanuel Viana Telles Veloso (Salvador, April 7, 1942) is one of the most influential singer-songwriters in Brazil. Born into a bourgeois family, he developed a passion for music at a young age, embracing bossa nova and rock. In the 1960s, in Rio de Janeiro, he became part of the Tropicália movement, a cultural explosion that blended traditional Brazilian elements with international influences such as pop, psychedelic, and jazz. Caetano Veloso is known for his innovative melodies, poetic lyrics, and distinctive voice. A key figure in the Tropicália movement, he collaborated with artists like Gilberto Gil, Tom Zé, and Gal Costa. In 1968, following military censorship in Brazil, he was exiled to London. After returning home, he continued to produce highly successful music, exploring new genres such as world music and electronic. Among his most famous songs are "Alegria, Alegria", "Sozinho", "Sampa", and "O Leãozinho".
