Citação Oba-la-lá
É amor oba-lá-lá
Oba-lá-lá
Uma canção
Quem ouvir o oba-lá-lá
Terá feliz o coração
Citação Amálgama
Agora vem os que fizeram e fabricaram o Brasil de sul-norte-leste-oeste,
A mão da doçura e o consolo da gente, a dimensão da dadivosidade e da alegria superando os sofrimentos e terrores, reinaugurando sempre a inocência da poesia com a infinita sabedoria do Ifá! E a imensa solidariedade do mutirão do pensamento mais profundo que vem do coração.
The lyrics to Morelenbaum/Sakamoto's song Bim Bom are simple yet catchy, with repetitive phrases such as "É só isso meu baião" and "Bim bom" creating a fun and almost hypnotic effect. The baião style of music, which originated in Northeastern Brazil, is characterized by an upbeat rhythm and the use of traditional instruments such as the accordion and triangle. In this song, the lyrics suggest that all one needs is the simple pleasure of music and a happy heart, expressed through the repetition of the phrase "É só isso meu baião". The chorus of "Bim bom" further emphasizes the joyful and carefree nature of the song.
The addition of the words "Oba-la-lá" further adds to the feeling of happiness and celebration, with the lyrics suggesting that anyone who hears the song will have a happy heart. The use of the word "amálgama" in the final verse is interesting, as it means a mixture or combination of different elements. This perhaps implies the idea that the song itself is a mixture of different styles, cultures, and influences, reflecting the diversity and richness of Brazil.

Now comes those who made and built Brazil from all corners, with the hand of sweetness and comfort for the people, the greatness of generosity and happiness overcoming suffering and terror, always rekindling the innocence of poetry with the infinite wisdom of Ifá! And the immense solidarity of the teamwork that comes from the deepest of hearts.

Its a sound describing a heartbeat, the lyrics give the hint "...and my heart was just asking for that Baiao like this..." and then comes the "bim bom" sound. It's an Onomatopoeia...

awesome! from what cd is this number? I already have the cd "Casa" and is seriously the best cd I ever heard... And I listened to a lot of great music! But anyway, this is a lot more bossa nova.... I like it! Her voice is so pure... I should really advice all of you to buy the cd casa!!! greetings from holland(that'll probably explain my english, but not my love for bossanova music) ;-)

@svennyzooi This is from A Day in New York by Morlenbaum2/Sakamoto which came out in 2003 - the album is a bossa nova gem, filled with Jobim compositions. Sadly it was the last album the trio did together. Btw - I live in the Midwest of the United States - an area not filled with Brazilians and I love samba/bossa nova and MPB.
