5.0 out of 5 stars The most heart-wrenching music and best voice ever!, September 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Ainda: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack From The Film "Lisbon Story" (Audio CD)

This is the most emotional CD I have ever listend too. The divinely smooth voice awes me with beauty every time. The simple accompaniment lets the gorgeous voice go on musical journeys that you would never have imagined possible. It is relaxed but heart-wrenching and emotional. It is unmatched.

5.0 out of 5 stars BEYOND THE CLOUDS...., June 20, 2001

This review is from: Ainda: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack From The Film "Lisbon Story" (Audio CD)

Ainda is surely the most eloquent Madredeus album so far...This is sheer perfection...The album has a unique atmosphere of sweet melancholy and a very rare emotional intensity due to the heavenly voice of Teresa Salguiero.Never can the voice of a woman carry more beauty,more refinement,more tenderness,more love than the voice of Teresa in this album.To describe it more properly I'll make a quotation from a Madredeus fan's opinion I've seen on the net about the scene of Lisbon Story where Teresa sings "Ainda":"Her voice is the purest form of beauty ever expressed by one person." Yes,indeed!

5.0 out of 5 stars Lisbon Story, October 11, 2001

Like with any Wim Wenders film, don't bother seeing it, just get the sound track. The man has a terrific ear for the kind of music that defines and sustains a mood, be it Nick Cave, Buena Vista Social Club or in this case, his most original choice yet, Madredeus.
Ainda is this sublime band's most sublime album. Never has melancholy sounded this beautiful. When I first heard it on a lovelorn rainy day in Lisbon, I was so moved I decided that the girl I'd left behind was the girl I loved after all, and after leaving the record store I immediately booked a flight home. Idiot. Even now this CD can play tricks with my mind. Perhaps it should come with a warning sticker, something akin to "Don't mix with alcohol", because if you're not careful, you'll end up with the wrong girl, too.
