Merceditas | Renato Borghetti | Playing For Change

In a poignant display of solidarity and hope, we share this special performance of “Merceditas” by Porto Alegre native, Renato Borghetti, filmed during the challenging times of the pandemic by our partners at the "Playing For Change Instituto" in Brazil.
In light of the recent devastating floods in Rio Grande Do Sul and Porto Alegre, this video not only captures a unique moment in history, but also serves a greater cause today, as we come together to support our community in its time of need.
Join us in leveraging the universal language of music to raise awareness and extend a helping hand to the resilient communities of Rio Grande do Sul. Let's maximize our impact and stand in solidarity with our brothers and sisters with hopes of mobilizing further support and resources for a region grappling with the aftermath of this tragedy. Any assistance or contributions would be greatly appreciated during this critical time of need.

Impossível não relembrar Helena Meireles interpretando esta canção.
A todo o povo Gaúcho, nossas consternações neste infeliz momento.
Vamos todos , um pouco de cada um, seja um item, um valor ou o trabalho in loco , viraremos este fato, demostraremos quão somos unidos Brasileiros .

Gratidão, amigo 🙏🏼

[@eltontoledoferreira7887]

Isso sim é o artista brasileiro, não os artistas que a globo dão crédito . Orgulho dessa lenda viva que desde criança sempre admirei. Puro dom e não entretenimento.

[@doritaschlenker3014]

Para los amantes del chamamé tradicional argentino (y viejos como yo) esta interpretación suena un poco "rara"... Pero es innegable el talento y el buen gusto. Así que agradezco a los hermanos brasileros el reconocimiento a esta canción emblemática nuestra, que han recreado y puesto a consideración de toda la gente que sigue Playing for Change. La música es el idioma universal que supera todas las fronteras de espacio y tiempo; y nos hace vibrar en sintonía donde sea que estemos. Abrazo grande desde Entre Ríos, Argentina.

A strong base is needed to add that full under tone

[@kiereluurs1243]

Nasty to still see those masks.
Quit doing that.

[@lee30332]

Without the mask please!!!!

[@ducks998]

It was recorded during the pandemic

[@kurtsaxton823]

Why would you even focus on the mask it's all about the music. Not politics.

[@joetrolo7076]

​@@kurtsaxton823I felt the same way. We just want to forget about those times. And who'd expect a video released 45 minutes ago was filmed then

[@shawnlongino1154]

Stop wasting your energy on other people's health decisions. Just listen to the good music.

[@victorbraun1777]

Is he hurting you?

[@6944firefightergr]

Sorry but the masks remind me of unpleasant times, and one is not wearing mask, ridiculus

[@tash6132]

Why are these people wearing masks? That's very unhealthy for them. 😮

The music is great, I'm so glad you enjoy it too!

What, because they were told to? Oh my..😲🙄

This video was recorded during the pandemic, which is why they are wearing masks.
