Sara Correia. From the people to the people

Sara Correia is a young Portuguese singer of Fado, the urban traditional genre of song of Lisbon.
Fado are mostly soulful songs and were originally created centuries ago by a mixture of local musicians and Portuguese Guitar players with local communities of immigrants, mixing their soulful songs with Portuguese guitars.  
Sara Correia is precisely a descendent from those communities, growing up and living in one of "people's neighbourhoods", Chelas.
Now, that she is a famous artist, she decided to thank her neighbours and friends, giving them a free concert.
Here's her song of proud of her origins: "I come from my neighborhood, from my window I count the stars (estrelas/stellas). I'm not from anywhere else, I'm from Chelas."


And now, Sara expressing her gratitude to her most important reference, Amália Rodrigues.  

Ana Moura

Ana Moura is a Portuguese singer of the music genre Fado. She is related to Africa and its culture due to her parents living in Angola and to her African grandmother Guilhermina. Casa Guilhermina, is the title of Ana Moura's last album where she embraces all her ancestral cultures with some mix of new urban rhythms. Here's some videos I recorded from her last concert, 3 days ago.

This is something I never posted because I heard it a lot. It was originally sung by Amália Rodrigues for a long time and recorded in some versions. It was covered by many artistis.

The reason I'm posting this it's just beacause I was missing this beautiful cover by "Amália Hoje" by the Gift (Sónia Tavares sings) and others.

"If a seagull would bring me the sky of Lisbon, on the drawing I would make, a sky where the look, is a wing that doesn't fly, it fades and falls into the sea.

What a perfect heart would beat in my chest. My love in your hand, the hand where would fit perfectly my heart. ... ... "
