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.
Parece que o Vento
Ivete Sangalo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Parece que o vento traz noticias de você pra mim
Parece que as noites se tornam mais frias longe de você
E a danada da saudade, vem
Chega e mostra
Quando a gente gosta saída não tem
Em cada reencontro se amando mais
Mas na verdade é que o amor não nos deixa sendo rivais
E por que será essa nossa estranha maneira de amar?
Pra que brigar?
Se a gente se separa mas nunca se deixa
Por que será essa nossa estranha maneira de amar?
Pra que brigar?
Se a gente se separa mas nunca se deixa
Parece que o vento leva noticias de mim pra você
Parece que o vento traz noticias de você pra mim
Parece que as noites se tornam mais frias longe de você
E a danada da saudade, vem
Chega e mostra
Quando a gente gosta saída não tem
Eu perdi as contas que a gente se deixou e voltou
Em cada reencontro se amando mais
Mas na verdade é que o amor não nos deixa sendo rivais
E por que será essa nossa estranha maneira de amar?
Pra que brigar?
Se a gente se separa mas nunca se deixa
Por que será essa nossa estranha maneira de amar?
Pra que brigar?
Se a gente se separa mas nunca se deixa
The lyrics of Ivete Sangalo's song "Parece que o Vento" delve into the intricate dynamics of a tumultuous relationship marked by a deep and enduring connection despite the obstacles that come between the lovers. The imagery of the wind carrying news back and forth between the two individuals symbolizes the constant communication and presence of each other in their lives, even when physically apart. The chill of the nights without the other person highlights the emptiness and longing that permeate their separation.
The recurring theme of 'saudade' or longing in the lyrics emphasizes the ache and yearning felt in the absence of the beloved. This emotional void is a powerful force that cannot be ignored when genuine love is at stake. The lyrics evoke the bittersweet reality of loving someone deeply, even when that love is marked by ups and downs, separations, and reconciliations.
The lyrics also touch upon the complexity of the relationship, acknowledging the patterns of leaving and returning, and the inevitable growth in love that occurs with each reunion. Despite their differences and conflicts, the singer recognizes that true love transcends rivalry and animosity, illustrating a deep understanding of the partner and a commitment to overcoming obstacles together.
The repetition of the question "Por que será essa nossa estranha maneira de amar?" (Why is this our strange way of loving?) reflects the contemplation of the unconventional nature of their love story. The singer questions the need for conflict and separation when their bond remains unbroken, emphasizing the paradoxical nature of their relationship as one marred by turmoil yet held together by a profound connection that withstands the tests of time and distance. Ultimately, the lyrics convey a message of resilience, acceptance, and unwavering love that transcends the challenges they face.

Parece que o vento leva noticias de mim pra você
It seems like the wind carries news from me to you
Parece que o vento traz noticias de você pra mim
It seems like the wind brings news from you to me
Parece que as noites se tornam mais frias longe de você
It seems like the nights become colder away from you
E a danada da saudade, vem
And the darned longing comes
Chega e mostra
Arrives and shows
Quando a gente gosta saída não tem
When we like each other, there's no way out
Eu perdi as contas que a gente se deixou e voltou
I lost count of the times we left and came back
Em cada reencontro se amando mais
In every reunion, loving each other more
Mas na verdade é que o amor não nos deixa sendo rivais
But the truth is that love doesn't let us be rivals
E por que será essa nossa estranha maneira de amar?
And why is this our strange way of loving?
Pra que brigar?
Why fight?
Se a gente se separa mas nunca se deixa
If we separate but never let go
Por que será essa nossa estranha maneira de amar?
And why is this our strange way of loving?
Pra que brigar?
Why fight?
Se a gente se separa mas nunca se deixa
If we separate but never let go
