    ----------------------------------------------
    Lyrics: A stick, a stone, it's the end of the road
    It's the rest of a stump, it's a little alone
    It's a sliver of glass, it is life, it's the sun
    It is night, it is death, it's a trap, it's a gun
    The oak when it blooms, a fox in the brush
    A knot in the wood, the song of a thrush
    The wood of the wind, a cliff, a fall
    A scratch, a lump, it is nothing at all
    It's the wind blowing free, it's the end of the slope
    It's a beam, it's a void, it's a hunch, it's a hope
    And the river bank talks of the waters of March
    It's the end of the strain, it's the joy in your heart
    The foot, the ground, the flesh and the bone
    The beat of the road, a slingshot's stone
    A fish, a flash, a silvery glow
    A fight, a bet, the flange of a bow

    Tom Jobim composed "Aguas de Março" when he was at his country home in Brazil and the terrible storms of March fell and he was stuck at home. When he could leave, he walked and was inspired by what he saw. The path remained as a metaphor for the calm, after the storm and how to overcome it. At a certain point they sing together cutting part of the words, such as the pieces of stones and objects he found on the way.

    I heard this for the first time recently. I'd asked Alexa to just play music in the background whilst I worked. The music was just that, in the background, something to help me along in my work day. Then this came on. I stopped, listened, then played it again, and again, and again.
    A perfect song, delivered exquisitely. Such a joy to listen to.
    I finished work early that day....

      It's really cool and gratifying to know that our music caused such a good vibe, my friend!
      Elis Regina and Tom Jobim are two legends of Brazilian music.
      Elis is considered the best singer Brazil has ever had and Tom is a maestro!
      The song "Garota de Ipanema" was written by him and Vinicius de Moraes and became one of the best-known songs in the world! And it is a great pride for us Brazilians to know that a song made observing the beauty of a young girl called Helô Pinheiro
      (now 80 years old) pushing boundaries!

    I'm Brazilian and I'm impressed how many foreigners can understand the lyrics and/or the message better than many Brazilians. Elis regina regina and Tom jobim were cultural heritage of our Brazil!
    I think this exchange through our music is really cool.

    The central metaphor of "Waters of March" is taken as an image of the passage of everyday life, its perpetual motion, its inevitable progression towards death - like the rains at the end of March, which mark the end of summer in southeastern Brazil. The lyrics bring the image of "water" closer to a "promise of life", a symbol of renewal. They have a very great chemistry in this song and I think the voices, the jokes e the laughter between them complement the performance. Love you reaction : ) Thanks !

    Esta musica Tom Jobim escreveu qdo estava desiludido numa encruzilhada da vida. Se refugiou sozinho numa casa de campo de um amigo e que estava em obras. Por isso fala da natureza e de construção, como Pau, resto de toco, pedra, ... alí, deitado na rede, a fez em 2 dias. No dia seguinte o amigo ligou pa ele e ao ouvi-lo cantarola-la, pediu para gravar imediatamente. E assim, sua carreira ressurgiu e ficou famoso internacionalmente.

    • @andlucs
      @andlucs Před rokem +4

      Minha querida, você errou na sua afirmação. Essa música não foi composta numa casa de campo de um amigo do Tom e muito menos ele se encontrava depressivo. A letra foi composta em março de 1972, quando ele passou um período em seu sítio de Poço Fundo, na região serrana do Rio de Janeiro, com o objetivo de finalizar um álbum
      Ele buscava por sossego afim de encontrar inspiração para compor mais algumas músicas e infelizmente ou felizmente né...rsrsrs..O sossego que ele tanto queria não foi possível. A propriedade estava passando por obras, em meio às chuvas daquele mês.
      E aparte que você menciona ele ficar famosos internacionalmente por causa dessa música também não esta correto, pois ele já era muito famosos e reconhecido no exterior por causa da música "Garota de ipanema" que nada mais é do que a Segunda música mais conhecida na história da música mundial. Só perde para Yesterday dos Beatles

    Maybe late for the party, but a fun fact for this recording is that Elis didnt want to do it at all, she didn't consider herself as a mpb singer...
    In the beginning of the clip you can actually see her body language being more "aggressive " to Tom... but during the song she notices that he's keeping up with her.. so by the end they are doing this fantastic word play

    How wonderful that you actually annunciated Elis Regina's name correctly. Major props, man! You also get the impact of the stream of thought poetry. It is 3 pages of stream of thought lyrics that is a mutha to perform (ask me how I know). I really enjoyed how even as a gringo American, you physically we moved by the Swing of the Samba. As a singer and performer, Elis Regina was a force of nature. It is such a joy to watch the joyous impact of this all-time classic on ya, man. Fantastic!

      Pronúncia? Eu tento. Eu reajo a muitos artistas de países onde o inglês não é a língua principal. Nem sempre acerto o nome na primeira vez. O mundo tem muito a oferecer em canções, como esta aqui. Que bom que você pôde aproveitar o desempenho deles comigo.

However, at the end of March, we have one week of raining days; this means life will go on. In this music, a piece of wood, silver, a stone, the wind, etc are showing us we are alive, and life will go on as well as waters of March shows..

  • @nazamystery1388
    @nazamystery1388 Před rokem +1

    Águas de Março, the name of the song is due to the fact that March is the month of heavy rains that end summer and start autumn. Tom Jobim was renovating his house, and everything that had been done was destroyed, and he had to redo the renovations and wait for the March rains to pass, which made him very stressed and anxious. To distract his mind from so much stress and problems, he wrote about what bothered him, and what he saw in this time of stopped works and a lot of rain, and scribbles of what would be the song Águas de Março were born, which was what he saw in his house all unfinished and dirty with mud, with branches from trees in the garden, stones, broken glass and frogs.
    👇
    At the end of the song, they forget the lyrics and improvise, but everyone likes it and it stays that way. And it was good, both are already dead and we can see them together playing with the music, and happy.

That’s all no big deal you can be dramatic if you want to but it’s really not what the song is about, if you listen to the English lyrics, he gets to a point where he says the mud, mud the mud

    Penso que um dia eu vi Jobim tentando explicar essa cançao e eh algo que fala de uma epoca do ano no Brasil (hemisferio sul)...mes de março, de muitas chuvas, onde marca o incio do fim do verao...de dias mais luminosos e o inicio do outono, de dias mais fechados e pouco ensolarados. Fases da vida...de alegrias, festas, tristezas e decepçoes.
    A letra em si, de dificil entendimento para nao-brasileiros pois usa muitos termos regionais e penso que ele usou mais como um jogo de palavras sonoras, entrelaçando-se entre si!

  • @millennial8441
    @millennial8441 Před 11 měsíci

    The lyrics is all about tragedy, sadness, because, at the end of March, a heavy pouring rain occur in Rio de Janeiro, many disasters occur, many people are dead at this season. That's why "Águas de Março" (waters of March). These short sentences means the memories of the past lived by Jobim at his farm. And he wrote this song in 1972 when he was arrested by military regimen and he thought cops could kill him. No hope, no joy, hard times.
