[New York Bureau] Heartbreaking Video of the Day

How's this for a killer?



Ma, how'd you like to learn all *those* words? Love the sound of them, though - such clear, luscious little words...

Thank you!!! I had a student last summer , a lovely young female pediatric dentist from Brazil and as a parting gift , she gave me a cd of Brazilian songs that she made for me. This was one of the songs, but I think my version was sung as a duet with a guy. I love all the songs but have no idea who the singers are or the song titles because it's a homemade cd. I love to listen to Portuguese. The only words I recognize are ''poco'' , ''corazon'' and ''Bela Horizonte'' [a Brazilian city]. Thanks !!!

Love this music--have heard this before.

BTW, if you like this, you may also like a new singer Madeline Peyroux. I had the good fortune to see her in the live performance of Prairie Home Companion two weeks ago.
