hi everyone.
we were so happy to receive so many messages after the airing saying how my special was touching and moving. we also received a lot of questions especially about the last song that i sang.
the song is no rancho fundo, composed by ary barooso and the lyrics were by lamartine babo. it was composed in 1931, and was a repertoire of joao gilberto.
we took this photo while we were shooting the program.
she is a fado singer who happened to be a relative of amalia rodrigues. she had a beautiful voice too.
i met this lady when i was heading to a fado museum. she said she comes out and sit on a bench in front of her house and basks in the sun everyday.
