As a teenager, Sangalo started to sing and play acoustic guitar at events, festivals and presentations of the school where she studied. Her debut show happened in the Ondina Neighborhood, Salvador, in August 1992. With that show she won the Dorival Caymmi trophy, the Grammy of Bahian music.
In 1993, Sony decided to reform the axé group Banda Eva and she was chosen as the lead singer. With her charismatic image, their first album soon topped the Brazilian album chart. Her live album with the band, Banda Eva Ao Vivo, was their best-selling album, selling over a million copies in 1997. In 1999, she decided to start a solo career and released her first self-titled album. With lots of upbeat Bahian rhythms and axé, the album received gold and platinum certification. The following year she released another album, Beat Beleza, which also achieved platinum status.
In 2001 she released the album Festa. The title teack was very popular and the album got platinum certification. "Festa" was her biggest hit single up to that point and the video also received huge airplay. "Festa" ended up being the most popular song of 2001 in Brazil. In 2002, she released the compilation album Se Eu Não Te Amasse Tanto Assim, titled after one of her biggest number-one hits. The album, which features a duet with American singer Brian McKnight, didn't sell as much , but was still a hit. Following Se Eu Não Te Amasse Tanto Assim, she released Clube Carnavalesco Inocentes Em Progresso in 2003. It was the lowest-selling solo album of her career but it still managed to receive gold certification.
Her first solo live album MTV Ao Vivo Ivete Sangalo released in 2004, included her biggest hits, lots of them never released on an album before, and some Banda Eva hits. The album received diamond certification and was the second best-selling album of 2004.
Her 2005 album, As Supernovas, received triple platinum certification shortly after it's release. The album was less upbeat than the others and included some songs with a 70's touch, with the big influence of Brazilian singer Ed Motta. She also included the hit "Soy Loco Por Ti America", a Gilberto Gil song. "Quando a Chuva Passar" recently reached number two on the Brazilian singles chart and was notable for being nominated at the Latin Grammy Awards, an uncommon feature for a non-Spanish speaking singer.
On December 16, 2006, she performed in the biggest stadium in the world, Maracanã in Rio de Janeiro, where Paul McCartney, Rolling Stones, Kiss, The Police, and Madonna have also performed. She was the first Brazilian act to perform in this stadium since pop phenomenon Sandy & Junior in 2002.
Ivete has sold more than 7 million CD copies and more than 2.5 million DVD copies.
Em Mim Em Você
Ivete Sangalo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Eu vou pra longe de você
Quero encontrar o meu caminho, agora
Vou sentir saudades de alguém
Sei que vou chorar, eu sei
Mas, daqui pra frente eu vou seguir sozinha
Quem sabe o que vai ser
Embora eu soubesse bem o que fazer
Talvez fugir não foi melhor pra nós
Tentar ficar um pouco mais a sós
Pra ver se o amor ainda mora
Em mim e em você

Eu vou embora de avião
I am leaving by airplane
Eu vou pra longe de você
I am going far away from you
Quero encontrar o meu caminho, agora
I want to find my own path, now
Vou sentir saudades de alguém
I will miss someone
Sei que vou chorar, eu sei
I know I will cry, I know
Mas, daqui pra frente eu vou seguir sozinha
But from now on, I will go on alone
Agora
Now
Quem sabe o que vai ser
Who knows what will happen
Embora eu soubesse bem o que fazer
Although I knew exactly what to do
Talvez fugir não foi melhor pra nós
Maybe running away wasn't the best for us
Tentar ficar um pouco mais a sós
To try and stay a little more alone
Pra ver se o amor ainda mora
To see if love still resides
Em mim e em você
In me and in you

Quero encontrar o meu caminho, agora
Vou sentir saudades de alguém
Sei que vou chorar, eu sei

Olha a extensão vocal dessa mulher!! Absurdo. Graves muito bons (como só ela sabe fazer) e agudos em voz de peito muito bem executados. A melhor contralto do país, sem dúvidas.
Roberta
RafaelXX Pinheiro depende muito , maioria das vezes Ivete executa melhor q Ana
Rafael Pinheiro
kkkkk acho que a melhor contralto é a Ana Carolina, e depois a Fernanda Brum (Gospel), depois a Ivete, que também não fica pra trás... Mas que a justiça seja feita 😁
DAVID RONEY
Leandro Maurício Perfeita!
Paulo Morais
