TRUE ARTISTS, Part 2: MARIZA
My favorite singer, MARIZA. Inheritor of Amalia Rodrigues' crown as the QUEEN of FADO, the ethereal MARIZA is reenergizing the folk music of Portugal. She is the Seurat of Fado...and the Portuguese guitar was crafted by the gods for her voice and visage...
Gente da minha terra... The people of my country, my land... On the Letterman Show, more stripped down, the way FADO truly shimmers...
Medo... Fear... With full orchestra...
Locoura... Insanity, crazy mad... With full orchestra...
Second version... Gente da minha terra... The people of my country, my land... With full orchestra ...Demonstrates the love audiences have for MARIZA
