They have two albums among the best-selling albums of all-time in Brazil.

Formed in 1990, Sandy & Junior began by singing children's songs and sertanejo-influenced tracks (their first single, "Maria Chiquinha", is a classic sertanejo song). Once they reached adolescence, they changed their style to pop-influenced songs, mainly ballads and upbeat songs. The style-change was around the mid 1990s. Their albums Era Uma Vez... Ao Vivo (1998), As Quatro Estações (1999), Quatro Estações: O Show (2000) and Sandy & Junior (2001) sold more than a million units and were certified multi-platinum or diamond in Brazil.

They had a self-titled weekly television series between 1999 and 2003 on Rede Globo and released the movie Acquaria in 2003; Sandy also starred the soap opera Estrela Guia (Globo) in 2001. Earlier, they had appeared in Renato Aragão movie O Noviço Rebelde, in 1997. Both have experienced solo work: Junior was the drummer of alternative rock band Nove Mil Anjos (which also features former Charlie Brown Jr. member Champignon on bass guitar), and part of an EDM duo called Manimal. Sandy, on the other hand, has a solid solo carreer.

In 2002, they were the first national artists to do a paid concert at Maracanã stadium in Rio.

The duo announced on 17 April 2007 that an MTV Unplugged album to be recorded in May 2007 would be their final work together, through a video posted on their website addressed to their fans and in a press conference, stating also that their career as a duo would be over at the end of 2007.

Their 17 years of career has granted them partnerships with several national and international artists, such as Xuxa, Roberto Carlos, Milton Nascimento, Toquinho, Gilberto Gil, Ivete Sangalo, Andrea Bocelli and Enrique Iglesias, and more than 20 million albums sold around the globe, making them the ninth best selling Brazilian artists of all time.

In March 2019, after a 12-year hiatus, the duo announced a new tour to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their first performance together, Nossa História Tour. Starting in July 2019, the siblings commemorated their successful career with their greatest hits in a tour through the largest cities in Brazil.

Convence Al Corazón
Sandy e Junior Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mil veces te escuché, mil veces y una más
Fui dejándome llevar
Hoy vuelves a contarme que todo cambió
Ya conozco las palabras
Me suena esa canción

Si me quieres búscame
Si me quieres suéñame

Dame una razón
Convence al corazón

Mil veces te creí, mil veces fue un error
Ya he aprendido la lección
Decir te necesito es fácil para ti
Las palabras siempre vuelan
No son nada para mi

Si me quieres búscame
Si me quieres suéñame
Dame una razón
Convence al corazón

Yo quiero mirarte
Y no preguntar
Yo quiero sentir más, más amor
Aleja mis dudas

Si mueres por mi
No lo digas más, demuéstramelo

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sandy e Junior's song "Convence Al Corazón" reflect a sense of familiarity and repetition in a relationship dynamic. The singer expresses having listened to the same words and promises countless times, suggesting a pattern of hearing but not fully believing or trusting the intentions behind them. The mention of being "dejándome llevar" (letting oneself go) implies a sense of vulnerability and openness to the other person's influence, despite past experiences.

As the song progresses, there is a shift in the narrative as the singer acknowledges past mistakes and lessons learned. The expression "Ya he aprendido la lección" (I have already learned the lesson) indicates a sense of growth and understanding, highlighting a newfound skepticism towards empty declarations of affection such as "te necesito" (I need you). The singer emphasizes that mere words are not enough to convince them anymore, suggesting a desire for authentic actions and genuine efforts in the relationship.

The repeated refrain "Si me quieres búscame, si me quieres suéñame, dame una razón, convence al corazón" (If you want me, find me, dream of me, give me a reason, convince the heart) encapsulates the central plea of the song. It conveys a longing for genuine love and connection, urging the other person to prove their feelings with more than just words. The singer desires a deeper emotional engagement and a demonstration of commitment that goes beyond surface-level declarations.

In the final verse, the singer expresses a yearning for clarity and assurance in the relationship. The lines "Yo quiero mirarte y no preguntar, yo quiero sentir más, más amor" (I want to look at you and not ask, I want to feel more, more love) reveal a desire for mutual understanding and emotional connection without the need for verbal reassurances. The plea for actions to speak louder than words is reiterated as the singer asks for doubts to be dispelled through tangible gestures of love and devotion. Ultimately, the song conveys a plea for sincerity, genuine affection, and the transformative power of love that is demonstrated through actions rather than mere words.
