5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful collection of Chico's songs in spanish., November 15, 1999

By	Alejandro Lopez (Sonora, México) - See all my reviews

This is a very rare and beatiuful CD with the best of Chico Buarque songs, but in spanish. This is a must have for those who enjoys the fine poetry and intelligent lyrics. Comes from that slow brazilian tunes to that well known classic rhythms and into the that brazlian's rhythmics songs. "Geni y el Zepelin" is an incredible well done metaphore, as the tune is. "La Construcción" and "Que Será" are two classics of Latinamerican music, the fisrt one has an outstanding use of the language and you have hear the arregments, the second one is with Milton Nascimento on the vocals. "Querido Amigo" very ingenious and nice letter-song to a friend :) "A Pesar de Usted" one of the protest classics on 70's 80's brazil. This CD is one of my favorites of all times on spanish music and a excelent starting point if you haven't heard Chico Buarque music and fine poetry before, you should try this. For collectors and good music lovers :)

5.0 out of 5 stars excelente, May 30, 2001

By	pablo rossi (BUENOS AIRES, BUENOS AIRES Argentina) - See all my reviews

chico es uno de los grandes musicos no ya latinoamericanos, sino de la musica popular del mundo. sus bellas melodias se acompañan de letras con gran contenido poetico y social. Este cd es una oportunidad casi unica para los que no dominamos el portugues de poder apreciarlas plenamente. La seleccion de temas es excelente, abarcando parte de lo mejor de su amplisimo repertorio. Tanto la traduccion , como chico cantando en español, no desmerecen en nada a las versiones originales en portugues.

Un cd que debemos poseer todos los hispanoparlantes que gustemos de la musica de brasil, de chico o simplemente de esta exquisita conjuncion de un gran interprete con hermosas melodias y poeticas letras

5.0 out of 5 stars Excelente! Uma muito boa aquisição., March 26, 2005

By	Josesito M. A. Junior (Fortaleza, CE, BRASIL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Escrevo em português porque sou brasileiro, mas não posso deixar de recomendar este CD que, ademais de ter uma seleção primorosa, torna mais acessível para quem fala o idioma de Cervantes, a mensagem poética do nosso Chico. Recomendo também os CDs "Meus Caros Amigos" e "Chico Buarque" (de 1978,que tem Apesar de Você). Estes são realmente excepcionais e ainda hoje, depois de mais de 20 anos de tê-los escutado pela primeira vez, não me canso de ouvi-los mais muitas vezes.

Para todos os fãs de Chico, aquele abraço.
