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.
O Mundo Que Se Vê
Sandy e Junior Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
O que vai importar
Todo seu orgulho
No mundo como está
As flores secam
O sol não sai mais
A vida implora
Quando abrir os olhos
O mundo que se vê
Pode estar queimando
Diante de você
O céu explode
Os sonhos se vão
Ninguém percebe
Nem dá atenção
Até os mares
Que um dia conheceu
Estão desertos
E tão tristes como eu
Quero te mostrar
Um mundo novo pra nós dois
Deixa o amor entrar
Invadir seu coração
E cada choro
Que se ouvir nesse lugar
Vai te dizer
Que só o amor pode curar
The lyrics of Sandy e Junior's song "O Mundo Que Se Vê" speak of the importance of love and the devastation caused by a lack of it in the world. The first verse mentions how, upon opening your eyes, it is important to recognize that your pride means nothing in the world as it currently is. The second verse describes how even nature, represented by the drying flowers and absent sun, empathizes with the desire for peace in a world that is burning before our very eyes. The chorus then calls on the listener to recognize the state of the world and offers a solution: to let love into their hearts. The final verse emphasizes the urgency of this remedy by pointing out that even the oceans have become empty and desolate, much like those who lack the love that can heal them.
Overall, the song seems to be a call for people to wake up to the state of the world and the power that love has to heal it. The use of natural imagery in the song's lyrics helps to create a sense of urgency, as it suggests that even the earth itself is suffering from the lack of love and care in the world. By the end of the song, the message comes down to a very personal level, with the line "let love into your heart" suggesting that change in the world starts with the individual.

Quando abrir os olhos
When you wake up and start paying attention
O que vai importar
What really matters
Todo seu orgulho
All your pride
No mundo como está
In the current state of the world
As flores secam
Flowers are drying up
O sol não sai mais
The sun no longer rises
A vida implora
Life is begging
Um pouco de paz
For a little bit of peace
O mundo que se vê
The world that you see
Pode estar queimando
Could be burning
Diante de você
Right in front of you
O céu explode
The sky is exploding
Os sonhos se vão
Dreams are vanishing
Ninguém percebe
No one notices
Nem dá atenção
Nor pays attention
Até os mares
Even the seas
Que um dia conheceu
That you once knew
Estão desertos
Are deserted
E tão tristes como eu
And as sad as I am
Quero te mostrar
I want to show you
Um mundo novo pra nós dois
A new world for both of us
Deixa o amor entrar
Let love to come in
Invadir seu coração
To invade your heart
E cada choro
And every tear
Que se ouvir nesse lugar
That is heard in this place
Vai te dizer
Will tell you
Que só o amor pode curar
That only love can heal
