In September 2008, Marcelo released his first solo album “Sou” with 12 compositions and a similar musical style to the last album by Los Hermanos, “4”. It was released under his own label, Zé Pereira. SonyBmg is in charge for the distribution of this work in Brazil. His inaugural work features the cameo performances by Dominguinhos, Mallu Magalhães, Clara Sverner and by the São Paulo band Hurtmold, who would accompany him during his tour.
The tour for the launching of “Sou” - started on September 9 during the festival Coquetel Molotov, in Recife, and passed by Salvador and Rio de Janeiro.
Some of the tracks on last.fm have been taken from videos on the internet (such as “Liberdade”, “Téo e a Gaivota” e “Doce Solidão” - all from the album “Sou”) or from homemade materials that would include (or not) in the first albums by Los Hermanos (such as “Pierrot”, “Deixa Estar”, “Melissa”, among others).
In 2011, he released the album Toque Dela.
Liberdade
Marcelo Camelo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Daqui não
Eu vivo a vida na ilusão
Entre o chão e os ares
Vou sonhando em outros ares, vou
Fingindo ser o que eu já sou
Fingindo ser o que já sou
Mesmo sem me libertar eu vou
É Deus, parece que vai ser nós dois até o final
Eu vou ver o jogo se realizar de um lugar seguro
De que vale ser aqui
De que vale ser aqui
Onde a vida é de sonhar?
Liberdade
The first verse of Marcelo Camelo's song Liberdade speaks about the importance of perceiving the good things in life, and how it is a gift. The singer admits to living life in an illusion, dreaming of a different reality while pretending to be content with what they already have. Despite not yet feeling free, the singer continues to move forward, possibly hoping to someday attain that freedom.
The second verse describes a feeling of uncertainty and apprehension towards a relationship or situation with another person, possibly a romantic partner, and the desire to watch it play out from a safe distance. The chorus questions the value of being in this current situation if life is meant to be a dream, implying a need for freedom.
Overall, the song explores themes of perception, illusion, and freedom, with a sense of longing and uncertainty about the future.
