Presently eu posso consider me a subject of sorte
Because in spite of a lot of moço, I feel são e salvo e forte

E assim já não posso sofrer no ano pasado

Last year eu morri, but that year eu não morro

Coração Selvagem

Heart jungle

Outro som imperdível de Belchior é Coração Selvagem, released in 1977, not a homonymous album, or a third of his career. Perhaps because of its popular nature or theme of composition, a universal and timeless feeling: or love.

Music is a subdued statement for someone who or subject designates “meu bem” and focuses on the particularities of the relationship that they live. Embora a sociedade ditasse how the lovers ofveriam behave, this eu-lyrical deixa of course that he is looking for different things.

Or subject portrays uma youth paixão, your vontade viver tudo and take advantage of every moment without thinking about the future. Em Coração Selvagem, or subject affirms that he wanted to live with an adventurous boy and that he needs a companion that adapts to his "wandering" way of life.

Meu bem, or world inside is naquela estrada there in front
Drink a coolant, eat a puppy-hot
Sim, já é outra viagem
E o meu coração selvagem tem essa pressa de viver

BELCHIOR - AS NOSSOS COUNTRY

Na composition, Belchior is demonstrating on o setback mental, cultural and social that was taking Brazil's account during the past. Expressing or climate of repression and censorshipIt is clear that he cannot communicate freely.

I am focusing on this conflict gerational, explains that youth is stagnant, stop not tempo. Embora thinks in different ways, they have new perspectives and experiences, they were forced to live second to morality from past gestation, like your country.

Minha dor é perceber
What despite thermos
Feito tudo, tudo, tudo
Do you or what do we do?
Ainda we are

As nossos country

Like Nossos Pais It became an important event for Brazilian resistance.

Also from 1976, a song é um pretty honest portrait gives reality, telling here that the artist was selling and living.

Assim as or subject of composition, Belchior also moved from the interior to a "big city", motivated sonhos hair, num marked pela hardness gives life. Here is also evident physics or power gives music and or how it inspires us, as a reference to Divine Wonderfulby Caetano.

Alerting about the oppressive climate ("tudo é forbidden"), or eu-lrico wanted to transmit to mensagem oposta, de libertação. Ao same tempo that narrates his experiences of him, uses or uses his song as complaint instrument, same as isso or transform into alvo.

Just as a society does not take advantage of its way of loving, it argues that nothing is eternal and isso must be faced with naturality.

He was more anguished than a goalkeeper at the time of the goal
When you enter em my like or sun not quintal

Aí an analyst friend meu disse that desse jeito
I will not be happy straight away
Because or love is a more profound coisa
That um found by chance

Belchior - A Palo Seco

Another success of 76, to music seems to be um Message from Belchior for seus companheiros de profissão. "Palo" is a type of flamenco that, when not accompanied by a violão, is designated "a palo seco".

Assim, or singer announces that he feared something to say and will be sem rodeios, "na lata". Logo depois, the beginning to criticize the artists that we are fazendo songs of protest for fashion.

Belchior distances himself from his position and the fact that he is singing because he accredits social transformation, he really wants you to do so.

I have 25 years of sonho and sangue
E of America do Sul
More by força do my destiny
Um Argentine tango
I fell for that or blues


I know that assim falando you think
That is despair and fashion in 76
Eu quero esse that I sing torto feito faca
Cut to meat of vocês
E eu I want that is that song torto feito faca
Cut to meat of vocês

And we all need to rejuvenate
