Chico Buarque - Cotidiano

Chico in the 80s. Is it just me, or does he look incredibly paranoid? As if someone might be secretly filming him or something. Anyway I love this video - short and sweet!

João & Bebel Gilberto - Chega de Saudade

This is a really sweet video! João Gilberto, who has quite simply the smoothest, most velvety voice in history, is joined by his daughter Bebel. She's so nervous when she starts, but it's really touching seeing them sing together. Que coisa linda...

Elis Regina & Milton Nascimento - Caxangá

I love Elis and I love her even more when she sings Milton Nascimento songs! This is from a TV show in 1977 when it was apparently normal for the main singer to perform sat down in an office chair. 10 bonus points if you spot the bearded keyboard player...

Chico Buarque, Gal Costa & Djavan - Nuvem Negra

Thanks to my friend Marcela (@marcelapieri) for sending me this. An absolutely beautiful song, sung by 3 of my favourite singers, at the same time! How very nice of them...

Novos Baianos - A Menina Dança

I might as well start with one of my favourites: Novos Baianos playing live for the camera in Rio. This couldn't really be any cooler. And it's got a proper drum kit on it, unlike the studio version on 'Acabou Chorare'. Plug it into something loud and turn it up!
