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.
Música e Paixão
Sandy e Junior Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
O silêncio que ficou
Ver a solidão
Me desafiar
Musicar o tempo
Em que você me amou
Ser uma canção
Hoje eu canto a ilusão
Notas pelo ar
Minha voz, uma razão
Pra você voltar
Recriar os sons
Que você não escutou
A inspiração
Pra continuar
Decifrar os sonhos
Que a vida improvisou
Minha condição
Quero te mostrar
Hoje eu canto a ilusão
Notas pelo ar
Minha voz, uma razão
Pra você voltar
Te buscar, sonhar, viver
Viajar e amar você
Dedilhar ao vento
O silêncio que ficou
Ver a solidão
Me desafiar
Musicar o tempo
Em que você me amou
Ser uma canção
Pra te entregar
Hoje eu canto a ilusão
Notas pelo ar
Minha voz, uma razão
Pra você voltar
Hoje eu canto a ilusão
Notas pelo ar
Minha voz, uma razão
Pra você voltar
The song "Música e Paixão" by Sandy e Junior is about the power of music to bring people together and rekindle lost love. The opening lines describe the act of playing music on the wind, almost as if attempting to summon the ghost of a lost love. The singer speaks of feeling lonely and challenged by this attempt, but still determined to try. They then talk about creating music that captures the time when they were loved, hoping that this will be a way to win their lover back. The rest of the song speaks of the singer's desire to create music that will inspire their lover to return.
The chorus repeats twice, emphasizing the singer's hope that this music will reach their lover and bring them back. The second verse speaks of recreating sounds that the lover may have missed, and deciphering the dreams that life has thrown their way. Again, the singer sees music as the way to bridge the gap between them.
Overall, this song is a poignant tribute to the power of music and its ability to bring people together. It speaks of lost love, but also of hope and determination, and portrays the singer as someone who is willing to use every resource they have to win back their lover.
