For those of you, foreigners (and mostly you, Voice Teacher), who have shown appreciation for this song, here's a translation of the lyrics which may help you get to the core of the Portuguese soul in it: It’s mine and yours, this fate (= fado) [This] Destiny that binds us Much as it may be denied In the strings of a guitar Whenever one hears a moaning From a guitar that sings One’s at a loss instantly Feeling like crying Oh, People of my Land Now I have understood This longing that I haul It’s from you that I received it And it would seem like tenderness If I let myself be cradled The greater the bitterness Less sad my singing Oh, People of my Land Now I have understood This longing that I haul It’s from you that I received it KIND PORTUGUESE REGARDS.

My introduction to fado was an intimate Mariza performance in a studio with an audience of 75 people in 2017. I had little idea of what to expect but it changed the way I perceive music. I now adore fado and although I love Amalia Rodriguez, Carminho, and Ana Moura, Mariza is my favorite by far. I also had no idea at the time of the performance that I would be living permanently in Portugal 4 years later. Estranha forma de vida!

Dear Teacher, This is a wonderful way of singing, it's the language that allows it. To sing fado, you have to speak Portuguese with a Portuguese accent. The intention, the feeling, only our Portuguese can imprint the soul in each word, in each note of the song. Fado is unique, with unique emotion! The Portuguese have to suffer, men and women suffering, tired who live on the good or bad mood of the sea, which gives everything and takes everything away. The Technique for singing Fado is unique and perhaps one of the most difficult vocal techniques that exists.

Fado is a beautiful sadness. A communal resilience in shared experiences of love and loss. There's a sense of belonging - almost like you're listening to a secret language (tens que ser Português para perceber). Traditionally, Portuguese people are stern (not unemotional by any means), but Fado is where we can all feel deeply. You can hear the cheering when she sings the verse "Oh gente da minha terra" - it's her singing, of course, but also community and belonging. We're her people. We're one.

The best way I can describe the singing of fado as a portuguese person, is having all this sadness, this longing, this distress, that is not yours, it's a part of history and culture, it's a transgenarational melancholy that is bigger than anyone. And when you sing it, it's just like a lamment or a cry, you have all this play between tension and release where usually during the verses it's very closed of, very controlled in a "keeping all these emotions from spilling out" type of way, and in the chorus, and specially in the bridge and last chorus you let go of all of those feelings in this guttural way. this is a very confusing explanation, but its the best way I can put it.

I think that this was the first time that the chorus of this song realy punch her in the gut...

Thank you for reacting and commenting on this performance. Mariza is one of the best in this genre.

I once met a Scot who was completely fanatical about fado, especially Alfredo Marceneiro. He loved fado more than many Portuguese people. This music touches from within and often mirrors the vicissitudes and misfortunes of life. Fado belongs to everyone and for everyone, from the moment it became a world heritage. Personally, I vibrate in the same way when I hear fado victory (Igreja de Santo Estevão - Carlos Peres) or a classic (Fur Elise - Ludwig Van Beethoven) or even a rock “Thunderstruck - AC/DC”. Thanks for the kind words, you've been touched and if, like my old Scottish friend, you start digging into the great fado singers and guitarists you'll be in for a surprise - fado singer and guitarist side by side.

Fado singing it's not depicted by the guitar but rather the guitar follows the fado/ fadista artist. Every artist has their method of singing that song you listen to and it's the way that they feel the emotion of how they perceive the song to be. The guitar plays along with the artists to bring out the emotion he or she is trying to get across the message of what that song delivers. Queen of Fado Amalia sand that Fado comes from within. That's why most Fado artist at times will close their eyes to listen to the voice from the heart. Thank you for truly loving this piece I love many Fado singers. Fado is split into two types coimbra Fado and Lisbon Fado. Both beautiful but both unique. As portuguese Fado to us is as special as that of our anthem and our flag. It's a sense of pride and honor. There is no one way to sing Fado but you would only know that if you were a portuguese or be submerged in our culture. Fado is not taught it is felt and through feeling comes song.

🙏 proud to be portuguese 🇵🇹

[@TheCristianotube]

I recommend estranha forma de vida, sung by Amalia Rodrigues! Any fado by her is a delight from heaven!

[@Guusmeeuwisofficial.]

Thanks for the support. It's my outmost pleasure having you here, thanks for your support you have been giving me all these years, I won't be here if not for you my lovely fan. I hope you find joy and happiness in my songs I will have to call you My Super Fan.

[@pdrmanuel]

I loved seeing you frozen in heaven. This is a version in which the singer improvises and is also urging the audience to sing with her.

[@ruimiguel1976]

Alot of meaning and feeling in that music for us Portuguese.

[@andreluizsantarosasoaresde6985]

The Voice teacher, despiste not understand portuguese, feels completly the emotion!

[@Betitana13]

I am Portuguese and living in the United States for the past 8 years… the amount of times that I’ve listened to this performance are countless by now. Fado is more than Fate, Fado is… our soul, our blood, it’s just who we are. I had never seen anyone even daring dissecting a Fado song, in matter fact, rule number one: “silence, Fado is going to be sung”. So when I clicked I thought I would be mad that someone would even dare to say something about Fado! And then… I looked at The Vocalyst. She is not Portuguese, she has no idea what is being said, but her body language, her facial expression… that’s Fado. It’s only deeper when you fully understand it, but that’s Fado! It barges in and takes over your whole body, you don’t even need to think, talk or anything else. It feels ever pore of your skin and cell of your soul. So yeah, very glad I clicked and understood how Mariza can carry us, a gente da terra dela, everywhere with her voice. Suggestion (not Fado, but a treasure to explore): Salvador Sobral - Amar Pelos Dois

[@sssseaaa]

Ela canta com a alma, a melhor forma de cantar. Definir as sensações que causa a voz, o som, a melodia e a letra é como definir o amor. Só sentindo.

[@George-2115]

Yes. Fado is great. It is reminiscent of the blues. The songs are often ballads, stories, they evoke a sadness, nostalgia, longing. At their best they say something like "life is tough, it's hard, but there were those beautiful moments, and we are all in it together, we share the sadness and the memory of those moments." Oh, and it's pronounced "fathu" [faðu].

[@isolinasilva1551]

You can also learn portuguese 😊🥰 É uma língua lindissima. This song is our (Portuguese) soul and emotions.

[@Guusmeeuwisofficial.]

You have such a profound impact on my carrier that even the biggest thank you text would fall shout to express my gratitude. Thanks for your support

[@joaoportela4605]

I am going to say she's really good like her voice goes to my heart I'm not kidding but she has something that no one more has. She's beautiful excellent and I think everyone that hears this song they will say the same thing again over again because she has something like her voice everyone most be proud of her. I think that there's no people that don't like Mariza she's beautiful!!!!😍😍😀😃😄😍😍😘🙂😊

[@Guusmeeuwisofficial.]

[@RicardoSpencer-dm5ew]

If you wanna hear another FADO breathtaking performance - "Dulce Pontes" in Canção do mar - live 2005

[@lrowlands53]

This is probably the most emotional rendition of a fado on youtube. I've heard this video many times and it still gets to me. Check out other songs of hers to find a more rounded idea of typical fado. Mariza is meteoric as a singer and performer, and while she is the current diva, there are other performers of similar calibre.

[@ruisantos502]

Beautiful reaction video. Mariza actually has a jazz singing background and in my humble opinion that makes all the difference and sets her apart from the rest of the fado singers. Thank you so much for your work.

[@Guusmeeuwisofficial.]

Thanks for the support. It's my outmost pleasure having you here, thanks for your support you have been giving me all these years, I won't be here if not for you my lovely fan. I hope you find joy and happiness in my songs I will have to call you My Super Fan.

[@johnmason455]

Glad you did this. Mariza is special, imo the best fado singer that's ever lived. This is my favorite of her songs but there are so many that I love. Her voice was just meant for fado.

[@gracewalk4155]

Absolutely Beautiful and powerful 😢 gave me Goosebumps 🥰

[@SotPSotPSotP]

Yes the admin is more cute 😀

[@petilili1976]

You have a Portuguese past life, soul, etc for sure. You are so welcome over here to hear fado and so much more genre if you want. The oldest country in Europe is a blissfull and proud mix of cultures by now! You would love it!

[@CaNoXiN]

Thanks so much for taking my suggestion.

[@TheMateriaalkunde]

I heard this was a very important concert for her. As a native Moçambigue girl, it was hard to introduce into the Fado hierarchy of the motherland Portugal itself. Still the musical elite preferred native born fadistas like Amalia Rodriguez, though they were no more. Mariza sings about the people of her country, and so she claims to be counted among the Portuguese. And she succeeds.

[@helenagracio7556]

birn levensregt - Is that so? I am portuguese and that theory it's a first to me....

[@TheMateriaalkunde]

@@helenagracio7556 Oh, I read that somewhere as an explanantion why she cried during singing Gents de minha terre in Lisbon. But it might be set up...

[@aderitodealmeida5644]

@@TheMateriaalkunde , yes a made-up story... 200% sure... she's a goddess since... EVER...! And she was born on Mozambique, her father is Portuguese and her mother Mozambican but they came to Portugal when she was only 3 years old (after the independence of Mozambique from Portugal). But yes, you are partially right: she cried because she felt that ar that moment, she was a milestone in the portuguese society, She had achieved their biggest goals... despite the facto that, yes, She (and specially, her mother) suffered racism when she was younger...

[@TshirtWisdom71]

Deep. It's from the depths... Only tears do it justice.

[@pedroleal7118]

You did a great job. It's always hard to convey or translate feelings that are so attached to the culture. In Fado, usually, the Music, although important, is the vehicule(?) for the lyrics. But you can believe, most Portuguese living abroad, will cry when hearing this song. Thank you for sharing your view. Take care.

[@Guusmeeuwisofficial.]

Thanks for the support. It's my outmost pleasure having you here, thanks for your support you have been giving me all these years, I won't be here if not for you my lovely fan. I hope you find joy and happiness in my songs I will have to call you My Super Fan.

[@natanpierce495]

My first introduction to Fado outside scholastic and musical recordings (I went to music school) was when I went back to the land of my ancestors and went into a little Fado house with my wife. We were in tears most of the performance. After wards we walked the city streets going back to our hotel and I knew something special happened that night. I want to move back to Portugal someday.

[@PALACIANOVEIGA]

50 yo Portuguese man here and regardless of how many times I listen to this, it is impossible not to get emotional. I'm afraid you would have to be Portuguese to understand and relate to this though.

[@sephas79]

Thank you for reacting to our unique genre! ❤

[@Guusmeeuwisofficial.]

I have read your touching comments and I genuinely appreciate you being a fan of mine, I hope you enjoy listening to my songs?

[@hugotubez]

Your reaction is beautiful as you, i love fado with all my heart, as a child my mother clean the house hearing it very loud, me and two brothers hated it, but as i grow older it grow on me hard. And i feel so proud 😅

[@manmanman3648]

each time I hear her singing this song, it goes right deep down into my heart ... I love Fado so much

[@BrunoJaneca]

She is the culmination of the best... Amalia's legacy, the Carlos do Carmo perfect diction and metrics and the Teresa Salgueiro's angelic tone and technique... And lot more. I listen mostly to Rock, Metal, Jazz Pop Rock... But this is always there in the back of us Portuguese people' minds. Amazing live performance. Also Paulo de Carvalho's great musical Insight and Carlos Paredes and other giants of the guitar made this possible!

[@alexandraromaneiro7224]

Marisa sings fado, this is fado, Fado is traditional in Portugal, She is very good!!

[@caramil2007]

Never fails to move me. The most perfectly sung lyrics. I always break when she cries

[@madalenavarela4353]

FADO came from Portugal, but belongs to the World! MARIZA is a god performer a great one. You need to listen the same Fado - Gente da Minha Terra performed by Amália Rodrigues. That poem was writen by Amália Rodrigues.

[@inespinto9698]

Letra em português: (lyrics) É meu e vosso este fado Destino que nos amarra Por mais que seja negado Às cordas de uma guitarra Sempre que se ouve um gemido De uma guitarra a cantar Fica-se logo perdido Com vontade de chorar Ó gente da minha terra Agora é que eu percebi Esta tristeza que trago Foi de vós que recebi E pareceria ternura Se me deixasse embalar Era maior a amargura Menos triste o meu cantar Ó gente da minha terra Agora é que eu percebi Esta tristeza que trago Foi de vós que a recebi Ó gente da minha terra Agora é que eu percebi Esta tristeza que trago Esta tristeza que trago Foi de vós que a recebi

[@Guusmeeuwisofficial.]

[@sofiamoreira5855]

Thank you for sharing with the world how beautiful our music is. I adore your lovely honest reaction. This song makes me emotional everytime and reminds me how powerful fado can be.

[@patriciaherlevi6217]

The emotional palette of a fado singer is at the crux of the genre. Mariza has mastered the tradition. If her goal is to cause her listeners to feel a deep welling of emotions or to feel their heart again, Mariza has succeeded. Other traditions with emotional coloring are flamenco vocals and Corsican polyphonic vocals.

[@leonelduarte1822]

I am Portuguese and each time Mariza start I have goose bumps

[@sameecunningham3989]

I can't listen to her without crying.

[@Guusmeeuwisofficial.]

I have read your touching comments and I genuinely appreciate you being a fan of mine, I hope you enjoy listening to my songs?

[@sameecunningham3989]

@Mariza official fan My great, great grandparents immigrated to Hawaii from Madiera and the Azores in the 1870's. I always imagined the passengers singing Fado aboard the ship and how much they must have longed for their homeland. And how much more so as they approached Hawaii as it very much looks like their motherland from afar.

[@Guusmeeuwisofficial.]

@@sameecunningham3989 Wonderful, you are a true fan of mine, I know you most be shocked to receive a message from me 🤠 anyway I really do appreciate all the love and support from fans like you and others due to the restrictions here on KZbin I'll love to honor you with my personal information via email address to know how you feel about my songs

[@fatimasequeira476]

❤️🇵🇹 Muito obrigada/Thank you 🤗

[@crustycobs2669]

Thanks for analyzing the quality of Mariza's voice, very plaintive song. Fado has a quality of 'saudade', which is something like a longing feeling, a bit sad, even longing for something that you never knew.

[@syox01]

Fado is simply beautiful

Only us, the portuguese people, we are the only people that knows what this feeling Is, only we know why we cry listen this. Fado e saudade, there are no translation for this words. BIG BIG BIG MARIZA🇵🇹

É meu e vosso este fado This fado is for you and for me Destino que nos amarra it is a destiny that binds us Por mais que seja negado no matter how much you may want to deny it Às cordas de uma guitarra (we are bound) by the strings of the guitarra Sempre que se ouve o gemido every time you hear the groaning De uma guitarra a cantar of the guitarra singing Fica-se logo perdido you find yourself lost Com vontade de chorar with a desire to cry Ó gente da minha terra Oh, people of my land Agora é que eu percebi now I have come to understand Esta tristeza que trago that this sadness that I carry with me Foi de vós que recebi I get it from all of you E pareceria ternura and perhaps it might be a tenderness Se eu me deixasse embalar if I were left to bottle up Era maior a amargura most of this bitterness Menos triste o meu cantar it might make my singing less sad Ó gente da minha terra Oh, people of my land Ó gente da minha terra Oh, people of my land Agora é que eu percebi now I have come to understand Esta tristeza que trago that this sadness that I carry with me Esta tristeza que trago that this sadness that I carry with me Foi de vós que recebi I get it from all of you
