This is about the cries of thousands of windows and mothers who saw their husbands and children die at sea. Portugal being for most of it's history stuck between a rival nation and the immensity of an unknown ocean forced uncountable generations to turn their eyes at the sea. Either as fisherman or as crew members exploring the new worlds, rivers of tears helped filled that very same Atlantic as well as the cries of all those women made those shores that much windy. The pain of loss and sorrow the sea caused us is still present in many art forms. This video represented this very well. The foggy aspect brings us back to a past we want to forget but still make sure to remember. Dulce throwing flowers from a cliff to that immense grave made of water. The old window dress in black crying and all those rugged masculine faces heading to sea knowing only that it will be their time to perish sooner or later. A precious moment in Portuguese music.
This is the song that speaks closest to the heart of a portuguese alongside its National Anthem; its almost impossible for a portuguese not to cry while listening to this music specially if you are away from home. "Saudade".
I will tell you the story of how this song was chosen for the theme of this film. One day Richard Gere was passing by on a street and heard the sound of the song coming out of a store. He stopped, continued listening, retreated to the store, went in, and asked at the counter, who was the singer who was singing the song and the name of the song. He took note, thanked and left. By this time, Richard Gere would be ready to play the main character of the film "Primal Fear" and he liked the song so much that he convinced the producer to put the song as the musical theme of the film. And it didn't stop there, because in a scene in the film and the purpose of the song, something similar happens to what happened to him when he listened to the song while walking on a street. And a scene in which he is listening to the song and talking to another character, who expressed satisfaction with the song and the conversation continued without Richard Gere giving an answer. When the character was leaving the house, Richard Gere called him and offered him the CD by Dulce Pontes that has this song. In other words, Richard Gere was hooked with Dulce Pontes, who not only put the song in the film and also advertised the CD. There, this is the story of how the Song of the Sea was the subject of the film with actor Richard Gere as the protagonist.
@@m000Theevilcow I must not have been paying attention during that part but you mean the mobster guy right? I kinda remember that. Rad story, thanks for telling
yep. You got it. That is Fado. It is more than beautiful, it will touch your heart, no matter how hard you fight it. The live version of her, Dulce Pontes is in my opinion even more beautiful and shows her REAL vocal skills. czcams.com/video/GJc4Ir78KdE/video.html
This masterpiece describes how the ancient Fisherman wife saw the sea 🌊 the evil sea which frequently took from them the joy of life. So every time they laugh or dance they were worried that the sea might hear… Cheers from Portugal 🇵🇹
Being Portuguese there are some songs that speak to your hart and sums up what it is to be Portuguese. This is one of those, that I can't hear without crying like a kid, being a grown ass man. Thank you awesome video
Dulce Pontes and her music goes straight to my heart, too, and I am not even Portuguese 😀 It just shows that good music speaks to everyone. Of course the beautiful Portuguese language helps also 👍💕
@@savalle this music might speak to everyone because of its beauty, but if you are portuguese you will see the history of Portugal in the lyrics and that belongs only to the portuguese people. It is OUR history she's speaking about very specifically.
And the beauty of Portuguese people is that it is okay for men to be emotional. I am Portuguese but live in Holland. What a contrast, where emotions are deeply hidden and men certainly don't show emotions. It is seen as weakness in Holland, where I see the strength of people to be emotional and overcome loss and sadness. Me and my dad always cried together listening to fado. I miss my country and will be back in some years.
The beautiful thing about Fado music is that you don't need to know the language to be able to understand and feel it. If you want to see a grown up rough Portuguese men cry, just play this song.
Thank you!! This music give people goosebumps ! She's an amazing singer and hope you hear a live version .. Glad that you know a little better our country now 💙
This song (Canção do Mar) by Dulce Pontes appears in the movie "Primal Fear" (1996), which stars Richard Gere. Even Richard Gere comments that he likes the music.
This song makes me cry and at the same time makes my heart dance (one of the verses in the lirics). Edit: If you liked this one try "Amor a Portugal" (Love of Portugal). Either a regular version with pictures of Portugal, or with Banda da Armada (the Navy Orchestra), where you can see that the instruments also feel that love.
This song talks about the maritime roots of the Portuguese people and their suffering and pain. It is a Fado first sung by the fado singer Amália Rodrigues in the 60s. The last image with the Lighthouse in this video is in "Sagres" the point most ocidental of Europe-
The song is about the sea, and a boat, and the love she feels for her Love. It is a LOVE SONG really. And it is beautiful. trust me. Greetings from Portugal
This artist was invited to work with the great conductor Ennio Morricone, who composes so many songs for major Hollywood productions, so you can attest to her quality as an artist.
I went to dance in my boat Beyond the cruel sea And the sea roaring Say I went to steal The peerless light Your look so beautiful Come and find out if the sea is right Come and see my heart dance If I dance in my boat I'm not going to the cruel sea And I don't even tell you where I went to sing Smile, dance, live, dream of you Come and find out if the sea is right Come and see my heart dance If I dance in my boat I'm not going to the cruel sea And I don't even tell you where I went to sing Smile, dance, live, dream of you
hi mike & ginger. if you love this song, you must see Dulce Pontes in Canção do mar 2005. Is a live show and you can see how powerfull it is. is fantastic how she sing.
Hi Mike and Ginger. As a portuguese, it's impossible for me not to feel the chils everytime I heard this song. It talks about the sea and our brave fishermen and sailors. As you say that you didn't understand what Dulce Pontes sing, I'll leave you guys this song lyrics translated so when you ear this song once again you might enjoy it as much as the portuguese do. Canção do Mar - Sea Song Fui bailar no meu batel I went dancing in my boat Além do mar cruel beyond the cruel sea E o mar bramindo And the sea roaring Diz que eu fui roubar Says I went to steal A luz sem par the peerless light Do teu olhar tão lindo from your look so beautiful Vem saber se o mar terá razão Come to know if the sea will be right Vem cá ver bailar meu coração Come here to see my heart dance Se eu bailar no meu batel If I dance in my boat Não vou ao mar cruel I don't go to cruel sea E nem lhe digo aonde eu fui cantar And I don't even tell you where I went to sing Sorrir, bailar, viver, sonhar contigo smile, dance, live, dream of you Vem saber se o mar terá razão Come to know if the sea will be right Vem cá ver bailar meu coração Come here to see my heart dance Se eu bailar no meu batel If I dance in my boat Não vou ao mar cruel I don't go to cruel sea E nem lhe digo aonde eu fui cantar And I don't even tell you where I went to sing Sorrir, bailar, viver, sonhar contigo smile, dance, live, dream of you Best regards and keep doing this fine videos. Thank you guys.
Portuguese were the sailers, not any sailers but the true adventurers , brave and curious to sail and discover new places in the world, but that also meant that women stayed and suffer waiting for them.
...tambien del lado del mar, aquí....cuando la oigo al final no puedo evitar oir a las gaviotas....el final me las recuerda.....ahora trabajo tierra adentro ...la saudade o morriña tambien es patrimonio del norte de España..
Hi and hugs from Portugal - Translator: was going to dance in my vessel Beyond the cruel sea And the roaring sea say that I was for stealing the peerless light Of your pretty look I want to know if the sea will be right Come here to see my heart dancing If I dance in my vessel I don't go to the cruel sea And I won't say where I went to sing To smile, to dance, to live, to dream....of you
Ah, wonderful. Trip down memory lane. Her voice cuts through your soul. Been a while since we listened to her album 'O primeiro canto', which was one of our favourites and in our car CD loader for quite a few years until the kids demanded more kiddy like stuff ... like Sesamestreet sing-a-longs. :)
Thank you very much guys it was me that requested this video for you to react. Isn't she amazing? This music and voice give us chills and the theme is so poetic. She also has songs in english with Ennio Morricone try for example: Dulce Pontes - Your Love and Dulce Pontes - Fado Português also very beatiful. And two anthems of portuguese music: Madredeus - O Pastor and Amália Rodrigues - Barco Negro and Mariza on the David Letterman show O Gente da Minha Terra all portuguese music singers and music that give us chills and relaxing music 🎶
If you guys haven't seen her live version of this titled "Canção do Mar - Dulce Pontes (2005)" where she's on stage wearing the red top, orange skirt, and black scarf thing... It is SOOO much better than this, she just sings with her whole body and soul and it's.... SO GOOD. Love your channel, and subscribed 😊 But you should really really watch that, it's like 10 times the emotion, it's phenomenal. Cheers!
Fado is portuguese imaterial heritage song style protected by Unesco. It is mostly about the nostalgia of missing something you have lost but at the same time a celebration for having it in the first place. This one is about all that the Sea gave us as sailing people but at the same time all the lives the sea took in this “dance with the sea” This song is all about that portuguese people melancholic soul, like Argentinians have tango and Spanish flamengo or USA have the blues. It is all about missing your homeland and your people and she got very emotional because this was the ending of a world wide tour that kept her away for months and months. You should also check Marisa, another Fado Diva.
Hihi, Arabian :) Spain and Portugal were occupied by Arabs for some time, Portuguese in the end kicked them out. Spain needed our help ;) So probably you hear influences in this song, but this is Fado. Portuguese folk song. It is about loss, grieve and Fado you really have to feel in your heart. Every live performance is different, is it comes straight out of the heart. It means indeed song about the sea. Portugal lives from the sea. They were discovering the word over the sea. The sea is magical, cruel, mesmerism, scaring, generous and greedy at the same time. She gives a lot of her treasures, but takes the lives of many fishermen. This is live....you will hear every performance is different. Thanks you for the reaction! Fado deserves more attention, it is beautiful soul music.
Just as a curious fact, but this song is featured in Primal Fear, great movie with Richard Gere and Edward Norton. I think there is even a story on how that came to be, since the scene where you can listen to it is very unrelated to the track itself.
you are correct! the song itself is about the sea. she is one of the portuguese powerhouses but she has one more song that is her most amazing: it's called "Amor a Portugal!" her best performance is in Athens (Greece) and once you are done look for the major powerhouse voice in Portugal : Marisa. thank you both for letting others know about Portugal. latest song is Carminho! second powerhouse in Portugal current days!
Just to give a little insight when you say "sounds arabian...". Before they became 2 individual countries, Portugal and Spain were one single territory, dominated by the muslims arabes from North Africa and sorroundings; also, the gypsies from Eastern Europe were traveling and expanding. Slowly, spanish and portuguese started to fight and conquer their lands and expelled the arabs. In France, the gipsy musical tradition originated the jazz type "guitar manouche". In Spain, this misture musical culture gave birth to Flamenco and in Portugal, it developed becoming Fado. In fact, both Flamenco and Fado share a lot of chord progressions and scales; and the arabe influence on both, its quite notorious.
Al arab,, era assim que éramos conhecidos em parte da idade médi. Mas isso que importa, ,A Dulce teve de sair daqui para ser reconhecida. Isso è uma pena.Mas o genial Morricone compensa tudo.
The Amazigh genetics are still very high in Portugal, Arab(yes, there actually were many Levantines who moved and settled and stayed after conversions) Phoenician and Sephardic Jewish. Religious propaganda and sentiment lead outsiders to believe the North Africans, arabs, Jews were expelled but its not true, many converted or practiced their religion in secret.
hi from Portugal, and ty for reacting to a portuguese singer. As said in other coments Mariza singing live...Gente da minha terra" in lisbon....and why not Rodrigo Leão & Lula Pena - song Passion...if so try to see the version why the dancers colored....beautiful. All the best stay safe.
I died at the Newfie comment 🤣 As one of the many descendants of the Portuguese diaspora in Canada it made me laugh. Also, the connection isn't farfetched. There's evidence of precolonial contact in what is now Newfoundland. Cod is a staple of Portuguese cuisine and yet it was never caught off Portuguese shores. Sailors and fishermen started salting the cod on board the ships, to preserve it so it could make it back to land hundreds of years ago. A tradition that is still alive and well today. Thanks for the video ❤
Oh... And see some videos from the one and only fadista (Fado singer), Amália Rodrigues! Unfortunately, she passed away in 1999, but she'll always be in our hearts. Our for ever Diva!
there's some arabian influence in portuguese culture. there weren't only celts and romans in the peninsula back in the day, there were also moors for a long time. you should react to more dulce pontes. she's a legend.
You need to feel the music and the true meaning of it, to fully appreciate it... Enjoy this music with a realy nice red wine from Portugal 🍷 you'll both, start to feel this song with another soul.
I recommend a song by a Spanish singer. Her name is Diana Navarro with the song "El perdón" she has a very particular voice full of melismas. .she is also a very versatile singer. Singing different musical styles. Greetings from Spain
Petit!!! Desde quando? Portugal é um País de dimensão média tanto a nível europeu como mundial. Convinha parar com essa propaganda de Pais pequeno que não MCA foi.
FOR PORTUGUESE CLASSICAL MUSIC, LISTEN TO RUI COELHO (cf. 'A PRINCESA DOS SAPATOS DE FERRO ' and others), CARLOS SEIXAS, ANTONIO CARNEIRO, FRANCISCO DE LACERDA, JOSÉ VIANA DA MOTA, LUIS DE FREITAS BRANCO, DOMINGOS BOMTEMPO, ...
This is about the cries of thousands of windows and mothers who saw their husbands and children die at sea.

Adorei a forma de descrição da música 🥺 acho que não conseguiria dizer melhor 🇵🇹🇵🇹
Descrição maravilhosa!
So , so true.
Fantastic description ,says It all!
E os Pescadores do bacalhau que iam para a terra Nova Canada e para a noroega
*Widows, not windows. ; )
This is the song that speaks closest to the heart of a portuguese alongside its National Anthem; its almost impossible for a portuguese not to cry while listening to this music specially if you are away from home. "Saudade".
And where did come from? Suddenly, na penumbra da névoa....
Hahah absolutely true. I sing this song with as much enthusiasm as the Portuguese anthem. Alongside ‘Lusitana Paixão’, I must add. ❤
You guys deserve the price for, best Not annoying americans❤
Canção original da não menos famosa Amália Rodrigues.
Fun fact: this was part of the soundtrack of the movie "Primal fear", with Richard Gere and Edward Norton!
The best part of movie

Absolutely. the people who make these reacts have only one purpose: get like...

Spot on
As a portuguese, this is one of the most beautiful songs we have, ever!
This masterpiece describes how
the ancient Fisherman wife saw the sea 🌊 the evil sea
which frequently took from them the joy of life.
So every time they laugh or dance they were worried that the sea might hear…
Cheers from Portugal 🇵🇹

The beautiful thing about Fado music is that you don't need to know the language to be able to understand and feel it. If you want to see a grown up rough Portuguese men cry, just play this song.
Outstanding song. Thank you so much.
The guitars at the end are portuguese guitars :)
I heard this for the first time 50 years ago sang by the portuguese Queen of the Fado, Amalia Rodriguez. Nobody since then did it better.
Thank you!! This music give people goosebumps ! She's an amazing singer and hope you hear a live version .. Glad that you know a little better our country now 💙
One of the best portuguese voices and song ❤️🇵🇹
now you should see her singing live, tears will come
Viva a Nossa Língua Portuguesa !!!!!!! Viva os Poetas Portugueses e Brasileiros!!!!!
Vivam os poetas Lusófonos
E os da Africa e da Asia ! Parabens tambem à Cesaria EVORA pelas belas cancoes e musica que deixou tras dela : que no ceu esteja !
This song (Canção do Mar) by Dulce Pontes appears in the movie "Primal Fear" (1996), which stars Richard Gere. Even Richard Gere comments that he likes the music.
This was composed for our best known singer Amália. This cover is genious :) Greatings from Portugal
ОХРЕНЕТЬ!!! ТАК ЧИСТО, БЕЗ ЛИШНЕЙ ГРАВАЦИИ. БРАВО!!!
This song makes me cry and at the same time makes my heart dance (one of the verses in the lirics).
Edit: If you liked this one try "Amor a Portugal" (Love of Portugal). Either a regular version with pictures of Portugal, or with Banda da Armada (the Navy Orchestra), where you can see that the instruments also feel that love.
É Maravilhoso com Amália Rodrigues! Com a Dulce Pontes também é sensacional, viva o Fado e essas vozes Maravilhosas.🇵🇹🇵🇹
Viagem maravilhosa ,e tortuosa por as veias do mar,mas sempre com o coração em Portugal. ❤🇵🇹❤
Amazing voice
I love Dulce Pontes. Please listen her Sing with Andrea Bocelli!!!! Amazing. This song was on Hollywood on a film with Richard Gere 😉
I just adore, love your reactions to portuguese songs 🙏🙏
You should listening to her singing with Enio Morricone Orchestra. Just fantastic!
WOW! The best female vocalist I've ever heard, gave me goosebumps ❤

The song is about the sea, and a boat, and the love she feels for her Love. It is a LOVE SONG really.
And it is beautiful.
trust me.
Greetings from Portugal
So PROUD in our Fado , Dulce Pontes, Mariza, Amália and so many others fantastic voices
lindo lindo isto e portugal no seu melhor somos grandes basta dar valor ao que e nosso viva dulce pontes viva portugal
Your pronunciation of the name of the song was quite on point.
This artist was invited to work with the great conductor Ennio Morricone, who composes so many songs for major Hollywood productions, so you can attest to her quality as an artist.
I went to dance in my boat
Beyond the cruel sea
And the sea roaring
Say I went to steal
The peerless light
Your look so beautiful
Come and find out if the sea is right
Come and see my heart dance
If I dance in my boat
I'm not going to the cruel sea
And I don't even tell you where I went to sing
Smile, dance, live, dream of you
Come and find out if the sea is right
Come and see my heart dance
If I dance in my boat
I'm not going to the cruel sea
And I don't even tell you where I went to sing
Smile, dance, live, dream of you

Come here to see my heart dancing
If I dance in my vessel
I don't go to the cruel sea
And I won't say where I went to sing
To smile, to dance, to live, to dream....of you

Please, React to: Mariza -Gente da minha terra (ao vivo em Lisboa).
It is another great Fado and very emotional.
Yes you have to react to this one!! Its amazing!!
Mariza... Divina creatura! Adoro il fado...saluti dall 'Italia
Lagrima from Dulce Pontes is far better. Or any other music from Amália Rodrigues. Mariza is not everyone niche...
@@soraiabranco8687 Concordo. A Marisa não é de todo para mim mas adoro e arrepio sempre com a voz da Dulce Pontes
If you like Dulce Pontes, you should check Madredeus - Haja o que houver
Also, O Pastor
This is the story of a people, of the Portuguese people
you both are special hope you continue to love our words and music
Thank you Pedro ❤️🙏🏻 - G
Maravilhosa. Dulce Pontes . Obrigada .
Thank you very much guys it was me that requested this video for you to react. Isn't she amazing? This music and voice give us chills and the theme is so poetic. She also has songs in english with Ennio Morricone try for example: Dulce Pontes - Your Love and Dulce Pontes - Fado Português also very beatiful.

You should listen 'Ondeia', you can see all the power of her voice. It is stunning!

Belated welcome to the world of Fado! Loved this reaction, I hope you explore some more of this style with more artists!
The Arabian sound you hear is true, inherited by the moorish period of Portugal
Fado is portuguese imaterial heritage song style protected by Unesco.
It is mostly about the nostalgia of missing something you have lost but at the same time a celebration for having it in the first place.
This one is about all that the Sea gave us as sailing people but at the same time all the lives the sea took in this “dance with the sea”
This song is all about that portuguese people melancholic soul, like Argentinians have tango and Spanish flamengo or USA have the blues.
It is all about missing your homeland and your people and she got very emotional because this was the ending of a world wide tour that kept her away for months and months.

Just as a curious fact, but this song is featured in Primal Fear, great movie with Richard Gere and Edward Norton. I think there is even a story on how that came to be, since the scene where you can listen to it is very unrelated to the track itself.
you are correct! the song itself is about the sea. she is one of the portuguese powerhouses but she has one more song that is her most amazing: it's called "Amor a Portugal!" her best performance is in Athens (Greece) and once you are done look for the major powerhouse voice in Portugal : Marisa. thank you both for letting others know about Portugal. latest song is Carminho! second powerhouse in Portugal current days!
Just to give a little insight when you say "sounds arabian...". Before they became 2 individual countries, Portugal and Spain were one single territory, dominated by the muslims arabes from North Africa and sorroundings; also, the gypsies from Eastern Europe were traveling and expanding. Slowly, spanish and portuguese started to fight and conquer their lands and expelled the arabs. In France, the gipsy musical tradition originated the jazz type "guitar manouche". In Spain, this misture musical culture gave birth to Flamenco and in Portugal, it developed becoming Fado. In fact, both Flamenco and Fado share a lot of chord progressions and scales; and the arabe influence on both, its quite notorious.
I came to the comment section to say something like this, but you nailed it and gave me more information.
Thank you
not arabs, but Amazighs (berbers)
Al arab,, era assim que éramos conhecidos em parte da idade médi. Mas isso que importa, ,A Dulce teve de sair daqui para ser reconhecida. Isso è uma pena.Mas o genial Morricone compensa tudo.

The Amazigh genetics are still very high in Portugal, Arab(yes, there actually were many Levantines who moved and settled and stayed after conversions) Phoenician and Sephardic Jewish. Religious propaganda and sentiment lead outsiders to believe the North Africans, arabs, Jews were expelled but its not true, many converted or practiced their religion in secret.
hi from Portugal, and ty for reacting to a portuguese singer. As said in other coments Mariza singing live...Gente da minha terra" in lisbon....and why not Rodrigo Leão & Lula Pena - song Passion...if so try to see the version why the dancers colored....beautiful. All the best stay safe.
This was Dulce Pontes's first experience with Fado. In fact, she was a rock singer! Believe it or not.
Thank you for this, she's amazing, ando the musica is beautiful
Masterpiece
I died at the Newfie comment 🤣 As one of the many descendants of the Portuguese diaspora in Canada it made me laugh.
Also, the connection isn't farfetched. There's evidence of precolonial contact in what is now Newfoundland. Cod is a staple of Portuguese cuisine and yet it was never caught off Portuguese shores. Sailors and fishermen started salting the cod on board the ships, to preserve it so it could make it back to land hundreds of years ago. A tradition that is still alive and well today. Thanks for the video ❤
React to "Mariza - Gente da Minha terra." You will love it
Search for her live performance in Athens . You'll go wild
Beautiful! Absolutely lover our amazing Dulce Pontes. But if you really want to appreciate her see some live vídeos. You'll be speechless. 👍🏼
Oh... And see some videos from the one and only fadista (Fado singer), Amália Rodrigues! Unfortunately, she passed away in 1999, but she'll always be in our hearts. Our for ever Diva!
there's some arabian influence in portuguese culture. there weren't only celts and romans in the peninsula back in the day, there were also moors for a long time.
you should react to more dulce pontes. she's a legend.
100! The same as Greek music, or Spanish Flamenco, or Balkan in general...
A minha gente
A minha cultura
O meu país
A minha Dulce
Thank You

I recommend a song by a Spanish singer. Her name is Diana Navarro with the song "El perdón" she has a very particular voice full of melismas. .she is also a very versatile singer. Singing different musical styles. Greetings from Spain
