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.
loucuras de uma paixão
Ivete Sangalo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Senti uma vontade louca de querer você
Nem sempre se entende as loucuras de uma paixão
Tem jeito não
Olha pra mim
Faz tempo que meu coração não bate assim
Sem lhe conhecer
Senti uma vontade louca de querer você
Tem jeito não
Olha pra mim
Faz tempo que meu coração não bate assim
Não faz assim
Me diz seu nome
Não me negue a vontade de sonhar
De sonhar os meus sonhos com você
Despertando pro seu adormecer
Seria bom demais
Que bem me faz você
Sem lhe conhecer
Senti uma vontade louca de querer você
Nem sempre se entende as loucuras de uma paixão
Tem jeito não
Olha pra mim
Faz tempo que meu coração não bate assim
Não faz assim
Me diz seu nome
Não me negue a vontade de sonhar
De sonhar os meus sonhos com você
Despertando pro seu adormecer
Seria bom demais
Que bem me faz você
Não faz assim
Não faz assim
Me diz seu nome
Não me negue a vontade de sonhar
De sonhar os meus sonhos com você
Despertando pro seu adormecer
Seria bom demais
Que bem me faz você
The lyrics of "Loucuras de uma Paixão" by Ivete Sangalo talk about a sudden and intense attraction towards someone the singer doesn't really know yet. She feels a crazy desire to be with this person, and even though she can't explain it, she can't resist it either. The song also touches on the idea that sometimes we can't understand the logic behind our emotions, especially when it comes to love.
The singer asks the person for their name and begs them not to deny her the chance to dream and imagine a future with them. She longs to wake up next to this person, and the thought of being with them brings her great joy.
Overall, the song captures the thrill and uncertainty of falling in love, how it can make us feel alive and out of control, yet we still crave it with all our hearts.

Sem lhe conhecer
Despite not knowing you at all
Senti uma vontade louca de querer você

There's no way around it

Don't do that
