Inspired by her experiences growing up between the Midwest, USA and Belém, Brazil, a city on the Amazon River, Mônica’s new album Brasilissima has touches of “samba and bossa, and even a small nod toward the very percussive axé music, but, along with partner Chad Alger, who shares playing, production and compositional credits, she’s created a hybrid that’s her own, and ridiculously addictive.”
Da Silva’s single Aí Então was “selected from tens of thousands of songs” by the pioneering label Putumayo World Music to be featured on their new compilation. Created to introduce new global music to broad audiences, Brazilian Beat chronicles the vibrant indie scene in Brazil and around the world.
Miami’s Acontece Magazine, recently called Mônica’s music the “future of Bossa Nova with the face of youth today”.
Amazing
Monica da Silva Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Found it in you, found out it's true
Yeah I was always hoping, wishing for something
Could it be you, could it be true
You're just amazing
All that you seem
Larger than life
You're just amazing
Too good to be true
I stand in wonder of everything that you do
You say you were waiting, holding back something
Kept it in you, kept it in you
You say you were thinking, that there was nothing
Out there for you, out there that's true
You're just amazing
All that you seem
Larger than life
Right out of a dream
You're just amazing
Too good to be true
I stand in wonder of everything that you do
When you stop searching
Yeah that's when you'll find
When you least expect it
That's when you'll find
You're just amazing
All that you seem
Larger than life
Right out of a dream
You're just amazing
Too good to be true
I stand in wonder of everything that you do
You're just amazing
All that you seem
Larger than life
Right out of a dream
You're just amazing
Too good to be true
I stand in wonder of everything that you do
You're just amazing
All that you seem
Larger than life
Right out of a dream
You're just amazing
Too good to be true
I stand in wonder of everything that you do
You're just amazing
All that you seem
Larger than life
Right out of a dream
You're just amazing
Too good to be true
I stand in wonder of everything that you do
I stand in wonder of everything that you do
