People
Bola Sete Vince Guaraldi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

People,
People who need people,
Are the luckiest people in the world
We're children, needing other children
And yet letting a grown-up pride
Hide all the need inside
Acting more like children than children
Lovers are very special people
They're the luckiest people in the world
With one person one very special person
A feeling deep in your soul
Says you were half now you're whole
No more hunger and thirst

But first be a person who needs people
People who need people
Are the luckiest people in the world
With one person one very special person
A feeling deep in your soul
Says you were half now you're whole
No more hunger and thirst
But first be a person who needs people




People who need people
Are the luckiest people in the world

Brazil has such a unique and beautiful guitar tradition. They’re the best in my opinion, playing the melody, harmony and bass line at the same time, fusing jazz, classical, and folk elements.

Todo lo que acabas de mencionar son elementos propios de la guitarra clasica, de hecho bola sete es un guitarrista clásico y utilizó su tecnica aplicada al jazz, si te fijas en la postura que usa para sujetar la guitarra te daras cuenta de esto. También hay otro guitarrista clasico muy conocido en el mundo del jazz el cual te recomiendo escuchar, se llama charlie bird. Éste ultimo junto con bola sete son en mi opinión los mas importantes exponentes de la guitarra clásica en el mundo del jazz. Saludos desde república dominicana.
