This is Papas da Lingua. Serginho, the lead singer for the band, is a good friend of my brother Daren. We never did get to go to his concert, but Daren said Serginho promised he would send us tickets the next time he is in NY. (I'm hoping we'll get to meet him.) Their band does a lot of different stuff but I'm a sucker for their ballads. The video below is a song that Serginho wrote for his wife. This song rocketed them into fame and was at the top of the charts in Brazil for a long time. It's easy to see why. I'll post the lyrics below with a loose translation. Listen to the depth, range, breadth of his voice as he sings this song. He's crazy talented.
Serginho Moah

Eu Sei Papas da LinguaEu sei tudo pode acontecer
I know so much can happen
Eu sei nosso amor não vai morrer
I know our love won't die
Vou Pedir aos céus, Você aqui comigo
I will ask the heavens, For you here with me
Vou jogar no mar, Flores pra te encontrar
I will throw into the sea, Flowers to be with you
Não sei por que você disse adeus
I don't know why you said goodbye
Guardei o beijo que você me deu
I kept the kiss that you gave me
you say good bye and I say hello
you say good bye and I say hello
Lua Cheia is also a great song--though I prefer them live and scruffy. Here's another Youtube link:
