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.
No Me Compares
Ivete Sangalo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que a neve no televisor
Agora que chove nas sala e se apagam
As velas do barco que me iluminou
Agora que canta o tempo chorando seus versos
E o mundo enfim despertou
Agora perdido em um silêncio feroz que quer desatar esses nós
Agora enxergamos direito e podemos nos ver por de trás do rancor
Agora o destino é ermo e nos encontramos neste furacão
Agora eu te digo de onde venho e do que é feito o meu coração
Vengo del aire
Que te secaba a ti la piel mi amor
Yo soy la calle donde te lo encontraste a él
No me compares, bajé a la tierra en un pincel por ti
Imperdonable, que yo no me parezco a él
Ni a él ni a nadie
Ahora que saltan los gatos
Buscando las sobras, maúllas la triste canción
Ahora que tú te has quedado sin palabras
Comparas, comparas, con tanta pasión
Ahora podemos mirarnos
Sin miedo al reflejo en el retrovisor
Ahora te enseño de dónde vengo
Y las heridas que me dejó el amor
Ahora no quiero aspavientos
Tan sólo una charla tranquila entre nos
Si quieres te cuento por qué te quiero
Y si quieres cuento por qué no
Você não sabe por onde andei depois de tudo amor
Eu sou a chave da porta onde encontraste alguém
Não me compares
Não busque nela o olhar que dei a ti
Imperdoável que eu não seja igual a ela
Então não fale, que alguém te toca como eu toquei
Que se acabe e que tu partas sem saber
E para sempre, ninguém te toca como eu toquei
Que se acabe
Yo soy tu alma tu eres mi aire
No me compares
Yo soy tu alma y tu mi suerte
The lyrics to Ivete Sangalo's No Me Compares speak about finally being able to see things clearly and without fear, to reflect on our past with a newfound clarity. The singer gives a vivid picture of the setting with the use of descriptive language. The chorus repeats the phrase "Don't compare me" emphasizing that everyone is unique and incomparable. The song also talks about the pain of lost love and how it can leave us feeling empty and lost, but ultimately we come out stronger and wiser. In the end, the lyrics suggest that the singers still have a connection and are important to each other, despite their differences.

The candles on the boat that guided me

Yo soy la calle donde te lo encontraste a él
I am the street where you met him
No me compares, bajé a la tierra en un pincel por ti
Don't compare me, I came down to earth for you

You don't know where I've been after everything, my love
Eu sou a chave da porta onde encontraste alguém
I am the key to the door where you found someone
Não me compares
Don't compare me
Não busque nela o olhar que dei a ti
Don't look for the same look in her that I gave to you
Imperdoável que eu não seja igual a ela
Unforgivable that I'm not the same as her
Então não fale, que alguém te toca como eu toquei
So don't say that someone touches you like I did
Que se acabe e que tu partas sem saber
Let it end and you leave without knowing
E para sempre, ninguém te toca como eu toquei
And forever, no one touches you like I did
Que se acabe
Let it end
Yo soy tu alma tu eres mi aire
I am your soul, you are my air
No me compares
Don't compare me
Yo soy tu alma y tu mi suerte
I am your soul and you are my luck
