Caros visitantes,

espero que vocês divirtam-se muito lendo minhas palavras. Peço, porém, por ser esse um trabalho independente, que não republiquem meus textos - inteiros, partes, frases, versos - sem minha expressa autorização. A pena para crime de plágio é dura, além de ser algo bastante humilhante para quem é processado. Tenho certeza que não terei problemas com relação a isso, mas é sempre bom lembrar!

I shall keep dancing my life until there's only one thing left: music.

I have always thought that our lives should come with soundtracks, as in the films. Music has such an influence in my life as a songwriter (and not only that - as a human being too) that I wish everyone could have the same kind of experience. I sing all the time. Regular noises make me sing. Sometimes a slamming door reminds me of a song or just a beat. As childish as is it may seem, I really don't want it to be different. I have a collection of more than a thousand albums, divided into CDs, LPs, mp3, k-7 tapes and so on. Each and every one consist in a part of my life.
I associate people to songs and I often find myself not listening to those particular songs because I remember someone that I don't want to remember. On the other hand, it also happens when I want to remember people. And those are probably the toughest moments. My deceased aunt was a songwriter and she has left me a k-7 tape with some of her songs in a very poor recording. It is gold to me and every time I feel sad that she's gone and will never come back, I listen to her tape and cry. This catharsis through music has helped me to overcome the loss of beloved ones and they have also being the soundtrack, as I said, to many happy periods!
I listen to music to feel. Happy, sad, excited, angry. I listen to music and I play music and I sing music to get in touch with my deepest emotions that I would, maybe, not be able to get only by talking or writing. Music plays a enormous role in my life and I shall keep dancing my life "until there's only one thing left: music", as my friend Bruna Zanardi would say.

Loved this. I always get a coffee for these readings, cause I always enjoy these lyrics.

Because music can emoldurate good moments and save me from the bad ones too!
I think everyone’s life comes with soundtracks. The difference is that some people can listen and some can’t… And my wish to these last is the skill to learn how to do this someday…
Keep singing…

Sem música não há alegria, apenas alma vazia.
Não existo sem música.
