At her 15th birthday party she made her first presentation. "It was a surprise to all the guests. One of them was a manager who invited me to open a concert for a popular Brazilian singer called Fagner. After that, many other invitations came to me. I spent two years singing all around the brazilian northeast," she said.
Marina added that when the dream of recording her first CD arose, she felt that she still needed a little more preparation. She then decided to go and study music at Berklee College of Music, in Boston, United States. There she had harmony, vocal technique, arrangement, composition, stage performance, piano, percussion, musical style research and studio recording technique classes.
She also took part in a television program in Brazil, called "Fama". It is a reallity-show similiar to American Idol in which the public chooses the best from a group of pre-selected singers that auditioned for the show. She got the 4th place.
First CD
A total of 20 songs were recorded, so as to arrive at the 14 tracks of the CD that goes by the artist's name. Production is by Guto Graça Mello, Júnior Mendes and by Marina Elali herself, who accompanied each detail of the production of the CD. The mixing was by American sound engineer Dana Jon Chappelle, who has already worked with foreign celebrities like Celine Dion and Whitney Houston. The CD was mastered by Adam Ayam, at Gateway Mastering studio, in Portland, Maine, also in the United States. The pictures are by Manoel Guimarães and Nana Moraes.
One Last Cry
This song has just become #1 hit in all over Brazil after debuting on a brazilian soap opera´s soundtrack called "Paginas da Vida", the most viewed TV show of 2006 in Brazil.

Mulheres gostam de xampu
Mulheres gostam de espelho
Mulheres gostam de corpo nú
Mulheres gostam de homens
Mulheres gostam de gastar
Mulheres gastam o tempo
Algumas gostam de mulheres
Algumas choram demais
Mulheres amam os filhos
Mulheres amam os pais
Mulheres gostam de meias
Mulheres gostam de batom
Mulheres gostam de homens
Que não perguntam se foi bom
Mulheres perdem a hora
Mulheres pedem pra olhar
Mulheres vão juntas ao banheiro
Mulheres ainda querem casar
Algumas gostam de mulheres
Algumas choram demais
Mulheres amam os filhos
Mulheres amam os pais
Mulheres geram
Mulheres cuidam
Mulheres sabem amar
Mulheres choram
Mulheres dançam
Mulheres querem casar
