Advantages: Maturity in her voice Disadvantages: Copy Controlled CD- can't put it on your MP3 unless you download it
...You just have to listen to one of her songs in any album and you will become a fan right away.
Her voice has no languages nor barriers.
In Mariza's Fado all you can hear is someone singing with her whole heart.
In her voice you see a picture, that soon becomes a story.
I recomended this CD to all of my friends and colleagues even though they did not understand Portuguese.
They soon began understanding fado and have become as passionate of Fado as I have.
I own "Fado em mim, Fado Curvo, transparente & Conncerto em Lisboa" all four of them are amazing!!!!
I also own the 2 DVD's- Concerto em Lisboa and live in London.
This is some of the best music I have ever heard!
Sung 200% from her heart!...
