Alcione was introduced to the traditional Brazilian music by her father. He was a military musician who worked as the conductor of the corps marching band. At the age of thirteen, she was already able to give vocal performance in college parties. At this same age, she began to study clarinet, and then learnt to play the trumpet.
At age 20 Alcione moved to Rio de Janeiro. There she worked at the city's TV Excelsior, and later went on tour in Argentina and Chile for four months. On returning to Brazil, she settled in São Paulo, working in nightclub and making appearances on television. In 1970, she started her two-year tour in Europe, performing as a vocalist and a trumpet artist.
In 1972, when back to Brazil, Alcione recorded her first single. The following year, she traveled to sing in Mexico and, in 1974, Portugal, where she recorded her first full-length album. In 1975 Alcione released her LP, A Voz do Samba, which achieved gold sales status and featured several hit tracks. The most successful songs were Não Deixe o Samba Morrer, written by Edson and Aloiso, and O Surdo, written by Totonho/Paulinho Resende.
In the late 1970s, Nazaré became well-known as a samba artist and achieved international recognition. She recorded Alerta Geral for Philips Records and, in 1978, released this album, the title of which was taken from a television show that Alcione had hosted on TV Globo for two years. Following its success, Alcione continued to release several other full-length albums in late 1970s and early 1980s, including her self-titled album.
In 1997, Alcione signed with Universal Records, subsequently releasing a label debut named Valeu, through Polygram the next year. This was followed by Celebração that same year, and Claridade---Uma Homenagem A Clara Nunes in 1999. In December 2002 Alcione was recognized for playing an important part in founding the Paraíso School of Samba in London, England. She also helped organizing and preparing the stage for a British version of the Carnival Brasil, Paraíso dos Orixás (Brazil, Paradise of the Gods). In 2003, her 2002 album, Ao Vivo, received the Best Samba/Pagode Album Award at fourth Latin Grammy Award ceremony.
She has interpreted several hits such as Não deixe o samba morrer, Lá vem você, Gostoso veneno and Ilha da maré.
On July 7, 2007 she performed at the Brazilian leg of Live Earth in Rio de Janeiro.

Alcione Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Kept his dick wet
With his same old safe bet
Me and my head high
And my tears dry
Get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew
So far removed from all that we went through
My odds are stacked
I'll go back to black
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
I go back to us
I love you much
It's not enough
You love blow and I love puff
And life is like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
Black
Black
Black
Black
Black
Black
Black
I go back to
I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to black
"Back to Black" is one of the most celebrated songs by late British singer Amy Winehouse. The song is written about her ex-boyfriend, Blake Fielder-Civil, who came back into her life after a period of separation, only to return back to his old ways of drugs and cheating. He chose an older girlfriend over Winehouse, and she retreated into her addiction. The lyrics are a haunting manifestation of Winehouse's pain and the idea that the toxic relationship and her addiction were interconnected.
The opening lines, "He left no time to regret," express regret over not making the best of the time spent without Fielder-Civil while the next line "Kept my dick wet with his same old safe bet," is her admitting her ex-lover remained unfaithful to her. The line about going back to black possibly refers to giving in to the abyss of addiction which had kept Winehouse in a dark place. The song is a statement about the emotions that come with toxicity, addiction, and emotional pain.
Some interesting facts about the song include that it was released in 2006 and was the fifth single from Winehouse's album of the same name, "Back to Black." It won the Ivor Novello award for Best Contemporary Song a year later. It rose to the top ten in the early months of 2007, following Winehouse's performance of the song on a BBC show called "Later with Jools Holland." It became a global hit from there, appearing on many year-end best-of lists. The song has also inspired a film of the same name and won a Grammy Award.

Line by Line Meaning
He left no time to regret
He didn't leave any time for me to regret our relationship ending
Kept his dick wet
He continued to have sex with someone else
With his same old safe bet
He kept going back to the same person because it was comfortable and easy
Me and my head high
Despite the pain, I held my head up high
And my tears dry
I stopped crying and became emotionally strong
Get on without my guy
I learned to live without him
You went back to what you knew
You went back to your old ways and old lover
So far removed from all that we went through
You are so different now from the person you were when we were together
And I tread a troubled track
I walked a difficult path
My odds are stacked
I am faced with many obstacles
I'll go back to black
I will return to my dark, unhappy state
We only said goodbye with words
Our breakup was only communicated verbally
I died a hundred times
My heart was broken and I felt a lot of pain
You go back to her
You returned to your former lover
And I go back to
And I return to my previous state of unhappiness
I love you much
I care deeply for you
It's not enough
But my love is not sufficient to keep our relationship together
You love blow and I love puff
You are addicted to drugs and I am addicted to smoking
And life is like a pipe
Life can be compared to a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside
And I feel small and insignificant, trapped in my own thoughts and emotions
Black
A reference to the color of mourning and sorrow
I go back to
I return to

Alcione - Menino sem juízo
(Álbum : Gostoso veneno 1979)
Sabe
Meu menino sem juízo
Eu já aprendi a te aceitar assim
Já me acostumei a perdoar você
E já nem sei porque
Seu mal faz bem pra mim
Chega, mal me beija e vai embora
Sabe Deus a hora que vai voltar
Juro que na volta já não me encontra mais
Mas logo volto atrás
Meu mundo é seu
E vá se procurar
Vá se desamar
Que as esquinas da vida
Te fazem voltar
E quanto à minha dor
Não se importe, amor
Já se fez minha amiga
Me dói devagar
Rogério Vilas Bôas
