Cássia was a master of her craft. She could sing pretty much ANYTHING and her confidence was unparalleled in the world of Brazilian music. She would sing old school samba and Nirvana in the same gig. This album is her MTV Unplugged, and the setlist features Edith Piaf, Beatles, and several Brazilian songwriters. Unfortunately she died the same year it was released (2001).

ela riu, pq o "nha" é um som caracteristico do Brasil, é tipo ela ta ai pra analisar esse tipo de som, e logo na primeira frase a cassia chega com o som que ela queria
Wow, I am so glad I watched this one! I'd never heard of Cassia, but I was so impressed and immediately looked her up. How terribly sad that the world lost her at 39. She had an amazing energy. I am going to enjoy listening to her back catalogue, but I'm sad she's no longer with us.

Cassia Eller died in 2001, Beth. Unfortunately, we Brazilians have lost a very strong musical reference! Thank you so much for giving us such a wonderful video! A kiss and success to you!
I'm Brazilian and watching you react to Cassia made me so emotional. Mainly when you said: it just makes me smile! No need to understand the words when the song, as a whole, tells a story.
The moment that you say ''I wish I knew what she was saying'' Cássia Sings: ''I drive my car'' and then she makes an engine sound hahahaha She was just amazing. Cheers from Brazil :D
Elis Regina, Cassia Eller, Andre Mattos... well, very good picks from Brazil so far. Wonder who will be next from Brazil! I really enjoy your videos. Cheers!
"Gostaria de saber o que ela está falando. Tenho a impressão de que é algo perverso." Tomara que ela tenha visto a traduçaaaaaaaaãoo kkkkk, a música é mais que perfeita!
Mas precisa ser ao vivo pra ela poder fazer uma boa "avaliação". A única versão ao vivo que chega aos pés da versão em estúdio (talvez até passe) é a versão dele com a Elba. Mas é opinião minha...
Beth: she's so unapologetic Me: YES SHE IS Beth: I wish I knew what she was saying Me: YES YOU DO Beth: she's so confident, i love her Me: YES SHE IS I LOVE HER TOO

Amazing! Cassia Eller's talent was immense. A great loss for Brazilian music. :( Please make a video reacting to Maria Bethânia singing Reconvexo. It will be fantastic! 🧡
@@anonimouz152 no documentário da Cassia diz isso. Ele estava no backstage e a namorada dele na época o acordou para ver o cover dela e o resto é história. Tem algumas reportagens sobre isso também
Wonderful!! Thanks a lot for talking about Cássia Eller!! She was one of Brazil’s biggest rock stars and died too soon in 2001. ⭐️You’re such a talented person! Keep doing these great react videos, you are smart, you know what you are talking about, watching your reactions and comments always make me smile! Great job!! 🙂
@@ems3599 acho q não, ao contrário, reforçaria a expressividade da voz no significado das palavras. Neste caso, ela perceberia muito mais a ironia, inocência, melancolia e por que não - malandragem da Cássia
Hey Beth, nice videos! Sadly we lost Cassia almost 20 years ago, she is an icon, a legend here in Brazil, not only because of her tremendous singing and composing skills but by the warm-hearted person she was. Good to see you showing our idols! Good fortune to you, ever!
She was my favourite singer when I was younger, I lost account of how many times I have listened to that album in a single afternoon. Cássia is much missed! She was amazing 💚
So , so good! Kássia era um espírito livre e selvagem ! Como um puro sangue selvagem , que não pode ser contido nem refreado num cativeiro ! Esta música fez parte da minha infância e ainda hoje sou completamente rendida a ela ! Pena ter partido tão cedo , ainda assim, o seu legado é inegável pela sua textura e qualidade ! 🇧🇷🇵🇹
Cassia Eller was one greatest voices at Brazilian Popular Music. Her voice is unique and her songs always will be listen for us. Thanks for this moment.
Cássia Eller was a wonderful singer with a stronger and powerful voice, and her voice was wonderful, and certainly she represented a force In Brazilian music. Unforgettable! And your video is so cute! I love it! 😍 Hugs from Brazil!
i am from brazilian, cassia eller was one of the greatest singers of brazilian rock. she passed away in 2001. we from Brazil who like rock miss it a lot. sou do brasil e aqui no brasil cassia eller foi uma das maiores cantoras do rock desde os anos 90, e nós que gostamos de rock sentimos a falta dela, que nos deixou em 2001
It was a beautiful and exciting analysis. It's beautiful to see a foreign voice professional , in this case a Scotswoman, analyzing with such propriety and affection one of our most beloved singers. It's shocking to think that she's been gone for 20 years. Rest in peace, Cassia. We miss you so much.
U r so eloquent and such great perceptive person. Cássia Eller was a great singer in Brazil and her legacy still rocks on the radio station. The lyrics were always well made and everybody who knew her told she was friendly and kind. It was so cool to see your reaction. Kisses from Brazil.
Other suggestions from excellent Brazilian singers with an incredible voice: ▫️Milton Nascimento ▫️Emílio Santiago ▫️Marisa Monte ▫️Zizi Possi ▫️Zélia Duncan ▫️Nanna Caymmi ▫️Lulu Santos
muito bom !!! ◙◙◙ this is a real reaction !!! Cássia Eller era realmente uma artista diferenciada. parabéns por reagir a vozes e estilos singulares de diferentes países e gêneros musicais do mundo !!! e do alto da sua formação técnica você simplesmente contempla a música apresentada e a performance do artista, apenas comentando e fazendo explicações pontuais, baseadas em seu conhecimento. e você ainda é fofa.
Hoje vi alguém de fora do nosso país a ouvir nossos cantores e cantoras. E isso implica em me inscrever no seu canal, pois muitos só ficam com cantores (pra nós, brasileiros) internacionais. Estou passeando no seu canal, não só com cantores brasileiros, mas com Steve Perry, um monstro! Excelente, continue com essa sua simpatia! Obrigado por nos prestigiar musicalmente! Aqui, Brasília - DF - Brasil.
"She's so unapologetic" - As a Brazilian admirer of her work i believe that suits Cassia so well. Such a good example that you don't need to be 100% connected to the lyrics to have a feel of what's going on!
Love it!!!! It was amazing to start my day watching you Beth talking about our greatest rock female star 🇧🇷!!! Hope you can look for more Brazilian singers and know more about cassia's career...she left us very early..😢 love you and your videos🧡!!! Hope to see you saying more about chester bennington...singing rolling in the deep from adele 🧡
I am always amazed at how much we can relate to music even if you don't really understand the language. You can really see Beth feel precisely what all Brazilians feel when we listen to this song. Even the tone. She not far off at all when she says she feels it's something "wicked". Loved this!
She said something like "I drive my life, I choice my money and I can sing my song, I'm a poet but don't know how to love, I just prayer for a few trickery" 🤘❤️

Oh, Beth, I love it How you are always talking about brazilian artists. There are many excellent singers throughtout the World, but It is amazing when someone abroad gives visibility to what Brazil has in its best: art, music, culture. Thank you! Cassia was amazing. You should check out her son, Chicão. He has similar voice Power and is very autentic.
Cassia is the real deal. I Heard a old tape by her..she was kind of finding her "voice" singing in a really high register. Pitch perfect! Strong at the same time so fragile. RIP Cassia.
7:30 --> She was saying "I drive my car", that sound she makes is like the engine roaring. The next thing she says is "I drink my booze", she's punk AF.
Shes from my home town and I had classes with the same grammar teacher that gave her classes. Once we asked about her and he described her as a very quiet, almost shy girl who was always with her acoustic guitar everywhere she went ❤
Cássia and Amy are the singers I most like ever. I'd like you had choose a more dynamic song, she sings a lot in english too. Anyway, good work, as always.

Beth, listen to a Milton Nascimento song "Para Lennon e McCartney".
Foi uma artista incrível do Rock Brasileiro, ela bem louca, uma personalidade ímpar !! Perdemos muitos artistas do Rock Brasileiro de forma trágica , muito triste !!
I'm a big fan of the Cassia Eller, so I can told you talk about her exactly same way we know her. Tks for this video, Cassia stay here with us in our minds and hearts!
She was, and still is up to this day, one of the best singers Brazil had ever had. I still remember where I was and what I was doing when I heard the news of her passing, I was such a huge fan of her even at a young age and it felt as if I had lost someone close. You definitely should react to Ana Carolina e Seu Jorge - É isso aí. I believe you'll absolutely love it.
Beth, I miss your classes! Please, react to Milton Nascimento, nana Caymmi, Gal Costa, Ná Ozzetti, Caetano Veloso, Maria Bethânia, Ney Matogrosso, Elza Soares, Monica Salmaso!
There is a video that Cassia, together with Edson Cardeiro, sings "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction". It is really amazing. I think would be awesome if you do a reacting to that video: ruclips.net/video/AR649Y55BmI/видео.html
OMG this is a CLASSIC. I was a kid when she released this song. A lot of what you’re picking up is the way CARIOCAS say stuff (accent). I just wish she was alive today so I could go to her concerts. She was one of the greatest female rock singers in Brazil 🇧🇷.
A regra é clara: começou a fazer coisas relacionadas ao nosso Brasil no RUclips seus seguidores aumentaram... Beijos sksksks♥️
Positivo ! 👍👏
De uma forma ou de outra, está divulgando a força da música brasileira.

Será que a intenção não foi essa ???kkkkkk.
"I wish I knew what she was saying" Girl you would be blessed. The lyrics are as great as her voice!
Who knows I'm still a little girl
Waiting for the school bus, alone
Tired with my socks
Praying low in the corners
For being a bad girl
Maybe the prince became a bore
That lives giving in my bag
Who knows life is not dreaming
I only ask God
A little trickery
I'm a child
And I don't know the truth
I'm a poet and I didn't learn to love
I'm a poet and I didn't learn to love
Silly is not living the reality
And I still have an entire afternoon
I walk the streets
I write a check
I change a place plant
I drive my car
I take my pile
And I still have time to sing
I only ask God
A little trickery

So tired wearing my knee highs,

What if the Prince has become boring.
That is always bugging me up.

Maybe I'm just a little girl still
Waiting for the school bus
all alone
Tired wearing my mid-calf socks
Whispening a pray everywhere I go
Just because I am a bad girl
Maybe the prince became a boring one
who keeps annoying me
Maybe living is not dreaming
I just ask God for
a bit of astuteness/malice
Because I am only a kid
and I don't know the truth
I'm a poet
and I have never learnt to love
I'm a poet
I have never learnt to love
Nosense is not to live the reality
And a whole afternoon still remains for me
I walk the streets
I cash a check
I change the place of a plant
I drive my car
Take some drinks
And I still have time
for singing
I just ask God for
a bit of astuteness/malice
Because I am only a kid
and I don't know the truth
I'm a poet
and I have never learnt to love
I'm a poet

Very nice translation, kudos. Love the idea of translating "malandragem" as trickery... it's a hard word to translate properly, but here I think that it conveys exactly what it needs to. 👍
However, there are a few small things I'd change, just for clarity's sake:
- "Who's always hitting my nuts" (Que vive dando no meu saco) 🡆 "Who's always hitting _me in the nuts_ ".
- "I only ask God / A little trickery" (Só peço a Deus / Um pouco de malandragem) 🡆 "I only ask God / _For_ a little _bit of_ trickery"
.
- "I'm a poet and I didn't learn to love" (Eu sou um poeta e não aprendi a amar) 🡆 "I'm a poet and didn't learn _how_ to love"
.
- "Silly is not living the reality" (Bobeira é não viver a realidade) 🡆 "Silly is not living reality".
- "I change a plant from its place" (Mudo uma planta de lugar) 🡆 "I _move_ a plant from its _current_ place".
- "I take my booze" (Tomo meu pileque) 🡆 "I _get plastered / smashed / buzzed_ ", the choice of verb depending on how far you want to convey the "pileque" went. 😁
Arrasou! 👏🏻👏🏻
Just gotta explain the "prince" part, that she changed "sapo" (a frog, like in the story where the prince turns into a frog) to "chato" (boring) that many brazilians always tought it was the frog, like the prince has changed to something else... but no, he became a bore, annoying that little girl
It's a nice irony
By the way, that moment at 7:23 in which she mimics a car engine, she’s actually saying “I drive my car”.
kkkk nunca tinha pensado nisso
como eu nunca pensei nisso antes??? kkkkkkk

Yep. Sounds about right!
ela riu, pq o "nha" é um som caracteristico do Brasil, é tipo ela ta ai pra analisar esse tipo de som, e logo na primeira frase a cassia chega com o som que ela queria
Na verdade a primeira expressão que ela faz é uma micro-expressão de nojo;)
@@ThiagoVelinha Nojo?!
@@ThiagoVelinha chegou o metaforando kkkkkkkkkkk
A voz dessa mulher arrepia até a alma, maravilhosa
Com certeza ♥
E aí a gente ouve o Chico Chico, filho dela, e arrepia de novo. A voz trascendeu até as gerações!
Please react to Marisa Monte! She's one of Brazil's greatest singers of all time! Love your videos! ♥️🇧🇷

Yesssss
I was going to comment the same thing
Mano! até os comentários em inglês são d brasileiros, tentei achar algum comentário gringo d verdade mas desisti kkkkkkkk
Josiane Pacheco E acham q tao arrasando com esse ingles de embaixador/ciro gomes
Kkkkkk todo vídeo gringo kkk
Escrito no Google tradutor kkk.
A maioria dos gringos não se interessa por músicas em outras línguas, acho.
@@metaleirosincero6317 Tá com inveja pq vc não entende nada, zé ruela
Wow, I am so glad I watched this one! I'd never heard of Cassia, but I was so impressed and immediately looked her up. How terribly sad that the world lost her at 39. She had an amazing energy. I am going to enjoy listening to her back catalogue, but I'm sad she's no longer with us.
Yes. She gone too early
Quem sabe eu ainda sou uma garotinha
(Maybe I’m just a little girl)
Esperando o ônibus da escola sozinha
( Waiting the school bus, alone)
Cansada com minhas meias três quartos
(Tired wearing my mid-calf socks)
Rezando baixo pelos cantos
(Whispening a pray in the corners)
Por ser uma menina má
(For been a bad girl)
Quem sabe o príncipe virou um chato
(Maybe the prince has become a bore)
Que vive dando no meu saco
(Who keeps annoying me)
Quem sabe a vida é não sonhar
(Maybe live isn’t dreaming)
Eu só peço a Deus
(I just ask to God)
Um pouco de malandragem
(A little bit of malice)

Bobeira é não viver a realidade
(Bullshit is not to live the reality)
E eu ainda tenho uma tarde inteira
(And I still have an whole afternoon)
E eu ando nas ruas
(I walk in the streets)
Eu troco cheque
(I cash a check)
Mudo uma planta de lugar
(I change the place of a plant)
Dirijo meu carro
(I drive my car)
Tomo o meu pileque
(I take some drinks)
E ainda tenho tempo pra cantar
(And I still have some time to sing)
Pra cantar

sorry for any mistakes
Awesome!!!! But if you don't mind, let me help you.
[1st part]
What if I'm still a little girl waiting for the school bus by myself?
So tired wearing my knee highs,
And praying low on the corners
For being a bad girl?
What if the Prince has become boring.
That is always bugging me up.
What if life is not to dream?
[Chorus]
I only ask God a little malandragem***
Cause I'm a child and I dont know the truth.
I'm a poet and haven't learned how to love.
[2nd part]
Bullshit is not living the reality.
And I still have the whole afternoon.
I walk on the streets, I cash a check.
I move a plant to another spot***
I drive my car, drink my booze
And still have time to sing
[Repeat chorus]
[Repeat 2nd part]
[Back to Chorus]
What if I'm still a little girl?
Ps: 1st ***
'Malandragem' is a slang in PT-br that means "to have the insight to identify what is good from what's not. The opposity of ingenuity. Genius. Brains".
2nd ***
Some people say that the part "I cash my check and move a plant to another spot" is related to drugdealing and drug abuse. She ODed in 2000's. "To move a plant" might be "to take weed, roll it and pot it, so changing the natural state of the plant". But only rumors.
@@spkengoahead8959 i would translate "malandragem" as "street-smart"
Cassia Eller died in 2001, Beth. Unfortunately, we Brazilians have lost a very strong musical reference! Thank you so much for giving us such a wonderful video! A kiss and success to you!
I'm Brazilian and watching you react to Cassia made me so emotional. Mainly when you said: it just makes me smile!
No need to understand the words when the song, as a whole, tells a story.
Opa, que mundo pequeno! Haha
The moment that you say ''I wish I knew what she was saying'' Cássia Sings: ''I drive my car'' and then she makes an engine sound hahahaha She was just amazing. Cheers from Brazil :D
Elis Regina, Cassia Eller, Andre Mattos... well, very good picks from Brazil so far. Wonder who will be next from Brazil! I really enjoy your videos. Cheers!
Deise from Fat Family singing on Clodovil's TV Show, maybe? :D
Renato russo!
Absoutely Vanessa da Mata singing Wave should be next
Anitta ou Joelma 😅
She did André Matos too.
07:23 She is singing "I drive my car" and then makes the sound of the engine passing by, like "grrrraummm"
"Gostaria de saber o que ela está falando. Tenho a impressão de que é algo perverso." Tomara que ela tenha visto a traduçaaaaaaaaãoo kkkkk, a música é mais que perfeita!
Vai em configuração (símbolo da catraca) e bota a legenda em português que aparece!
You should react to Zé Ramalho - Chão de giz. Greetings from Brasil
Mas precisa ser ao vivo pra ela poder fazer uma boa "avaliação". A única versão ao vivo que chega aos pés da versão em estúdio (talvez até passe) é a versão dele com a Elba. Mas é opinião minha...
Concordo! Chão de Giz Ao Vivo!
Please. Do it. React to Belchior too
Please!!! REACT
Sinônimos seria uma opção interessante tb!
Tim Maia, Seu Jorge, Marisa Monte, Jorge Aragão, Alcione, Johnny Hooker...
Tim Maia ! Já pensou. Ótima lista.
Elis Regina, Maísa Matarazzo, Wilson Simonal
Elza Soares
Elis
Jorge Ben, o cara é muito bom tb
React to Cassia Eller and Djavan singing "Milagreiro" please. She uses her head voice super high.
Siiimmmmmm!!!!
Linda música!
amo
Love this song
Simmmmmmmmmmm please
Beth: she's so unapologetic
Me: YES SHE IS
Beth: I wish I knew what she was saying
Me: YES YOU DO
Beth: she's so confident, i love her
Me: YES SHE IS I LOVE HER TOO
Who knows I'm still a little girl
Waiting for the school bus, alone
Tired with my socks
Praying low in the corners
For being a bad girl
Maybe the prince became a bore
That lives giving in my bag
Who knows life is not dreaming
I only ask God
A little trickery
I'm a child
And I don't know the truth
I'm a poet and I didn't learn to love
I'm a poet and I didn't learn to love
Silly is not living the reality
And I still have an entire afternoon
I walk the streets
I write a check
I change a place plant
I drive my car
I take my pile
And I still have time to sing
I only ask God
A little trickery
I'm a child
And I don't know the truth
I'm a poet and I didn't learn to love
I'm a poet and I didn't learn to love
I walk the streets
I write a check
I change a place plant
I drive my car
I take my pile
And I still have time to sing
I only ask God
A little trickery
I'm a child
And I don't know the truth
I'm a poet and I didn't learn to love
I'm a poet and I didn't learn to love
Who knows, I'm still a little girl!
Exactly kkkkkk
You need to hear ALCIONE.
She is a famous samba singer here in Brazil, and she also sang one of my favourite Stevie Wonder songs: overjoyed.
Wow! As a Brazilian I'm happy to see Cássia here! She was an amazing singer.
You just nailed when you've said that she sounds unapologetic. Her music and her life were unapologetic.
You should listen to Ney Matogrosso especially during his Secos and Molhados time. He's out of this world!
Cassia Eller is one of my favorite Brazilian singers! Thank you to bring her back! I really appreciate it!
Cassia Eller foi, simplesmente, a última grande intérprete da música brasileira. Depois dela, ainda, não apareceu ninguém. Amo demais!!!
Amazing! Cassia Eller's talent was immense. A great loss for Brazilian music. :( Please make a video reacting to Maria Bethânia singing Reconvexo. It will be fantastic! 🧡
I would love to see a Marisa Monte react!
Maria Bethânia would be absolutely fantastic!!
You should check her “smells like teen spirits cover” from Nirvana! You’ll be amazed! One of the best covers ever!
No...
@@fidacuca actually Dave grohl himself said that was better than original version
@@pablogoulart3420 oloco onde vc viu ?
@@anonimouz152 no documentário da Cassia diz isso. Ele estava no backstage e a namorada dele na época o acordou para ver o cover dela e o resto é história. Tem algumas reportagens sobre isso também
Pablo Goulart Ele já não tinha morrido? Obs: Melhor cover não existe.
I love when you react to brazillian music, because I think ours is one of the best in the world
Esa música simplemente es fenomenal ! La escuchaba cuando era pequeña .
Thanks, it’s nice to see how you like her voice, we Brazilians also love Cassia Elder songs, we miss her so much.
Elis Regina, Cassia Eller, Zé Ramalho, Luis Melodia... isso são as Vozes, incríveis, fantásticas...
Wonderful!! Thanks a lot for talking about Cássia Eller!! She was one of Brazil’s biggest rock stars and died too soon in 2001. ⭐️You’re such a talented person! Keep doing these great react videos, you are smart, you know what you are talking about, watching your reactions and comments always make me smile! Great job!! 🙂
Just a tip: It could be better if you lady had some translated lyrics to level up your experience... But coool review and feelings! ^^
É uma boa ideia mas talvez isso desviaria a atenção dela da análise vocal
Chato!🙄
@@ems3599 acho q não, ao contrário, reforçaria a expressividade da voz no significado das palavras. Neste caso, ela perceberia muito mais a ironia, inocência, melancolia e por que não - malandragem da Cássia
You’Re so cool my dear ! Congrats for the channel and for listening to one of our greatest artists. 👏👏👏👏👏
Hey Beth, nice videos! Sadly we lost Cassia almost 20 years ago, she is an icon, a legend here in Brazil, not only because of her tremendous singing and composing skills but by the warm-hearted person she was. Good to see you showing our idols! Good fortune to you, ever!
She was my favourite singer when I was younger, I lost account of how many times I have listened to that album in a single afternoon.
Cássia is much missed! She was amazing 💚
So , so good!
Kássia era um espírito livre e selvagem !
Como um puro sangue selvagem , que não pode ser contido nem refreado num cativeiro !
Esta música fez parte da minha infância e ainda hoje sou completamente rendida a ela !
Pena ter partido tão cedo , ainda assim, o seu legado é inegável pela sua textura e qualidade !
🇧🇷🇵🇹
Cassia Eller is a Amazing Brazilian Singer ❤
Cassia Eller was one greatest voices at Brazilian Popular Music. Her voice is unique and her songs always will be listen for us. Thanks for this moment.
I met Cassia Eller in Brasilia, our city, when she was 18. She was singing a piece of an opera. Many rock groups originated from this city.
We miss Cassia so much! She was so talented and had such a cool personality!
You should react to Zé Ramalho - Chão de giz.
"I'm a poet that hasn't learned to love"
Cássia Eller was a wonderful singer with a stronger and powerful voice, and her voice was wonderful, and certainly she represented a force In Brazilian music. Unforgettable!
And your video is so cute! I love it! 😍
Hugs from Brazil!
I love her!! She was so, so great!!! We miss Cassia Eller so much!
She’s my favorite Brazilian singer.... love her so much
i am from brazilian, cassia eller was one of the greatest singers of brazilian rock. she passed away in 2001. we from Brazil who like rock miss it a lot.
sou do brasil e aqui no brasil cassia eller foi uma das maiores cantoras do rock desde os anos 90, e nós que gostamos de rock sentimos a falta dela, que nos deixou em 2001
other great brazilian singers for you to take a look at: Cazuza, Renato Russo, Marisa Monte, Maria Bethânia, Elza Soares, Chico Buarque
Caetano Veloso 🤗😉
Clara Nunes
It was a beautiful and exciting analysis.
It's beautiful to see a foreign voice professional , in this case a Scotswoman, analyzing with such propriety and affection one of our most beloved singers.
It's shocking to think that she's been gone for 20 years.
Rest in peace, Cassia. We miss you so much.
U r so eloquent and such great perceptive person. Cássia Eller was a great singer in Brazil and her legacy still rocks on the radio station. The lyrics were always well made and everybody who knew her told she was friendly and kind. It was so cool to see your reaction. Kisses from Brazil.
Thank you!
Esse show foi muito bom e toda história que envolve a gravação, foi muito bom...

muito bom !!! ◙◙◙ this is a real reaction !!! Cássia Eller era realmente uma artista diferenciada. parabéns por reagir a vozes e estilos singulares de diferentes países e gêneros musicais do mundo !!! e do alto da sua formação técnica você simplesmente contempla a música apresentada e a performance do artista, apenas comentando e fazendo explicações pontuais, baseadas em seu conhecimento. e você ainda é fofa.
O melhor comentário de todos... e ainda foi fofo.
Muito bom.
Hoje vi alguém de fora do nosso país a ouvir nossos cantores e cantoras. E isso implica em me inscrever no seu canal, pois muitos só ficam com cantores (pra nós, brasileiros) internacionais. Estou passeando no seu canal, não só com cantores brasileiros, mas com Steve Perry, um monstro! Excelente, continue com essa sua simpatia! Obrigado por nos prestigiar musicalmente! Aqui, Brasília - DF - Brasil.
As observações da Beth são as melhores da internet, bem sensata, detalhista e construtivas. Excelente canal.
"She's so unapologetic" - As a Brazilian admirer of her work i believe that suits Cassia so well.
Such a good example that you don't need to be 100% connected to the lyrics to have a feel of what's going on!
Lendária Cassia Eller, para sempre um tesouro brasileiro!
Love it!!!! It was amazing to start my day watching you Beth talking about our greatest rock female star 🇧🇷!!! Hope you can look for more Brazilian singers and know more about cassia's career...she left us very early..😢 love you and your videos🧡!!! Hope to see you saying more about chester bennington...singing rolling in the deep from adele 🧡
I am always amazed at how much we can relate to music even if you don't really understand the language.
You can really see Beth feel precisely what all Brazilians feel when we listen to this song. Even the tone. She not far off at all when she says she feels it's something "wicked". Loved this!
Wow! Listen to that Bass. OMG! So clean, perfect!
Nunca mais haverá uma voz como a da Cassia
Tem que virar fã do Chicão.
A bênção que Cássia deixou para a gente matar saudades.
A voz, o tom, a energia... o Chico herdou sua mamãe todinha.
I love your coments about Brazilian singers. Makes me feel absolutelly proud about us! Please, make a video about Gal Costa.
Just a suggestion: Zizi Possi, a great Brazilian singer.
Alzira Neves yes!!! Her version of Teresinha is my absolute favourite!
She has to react to MILTON NASCIMENTO and FLÁVIO VENTURINI too! They're amazing brazilian singers!
She said something like "I drive my life, I choice my money and I can sing my song, I'm a poet but don't know how to love, I just prayer for a few trickery" 🤘❤️
I absolutely LOVE her, she’s just so perfect
Best brasilian singer of all time is called: Milton Nascimento. You are welcome
❤️ MILTON!
ruclips.net/video/4TlvMFdyUXI/видео.html
Check her performance at Rock in Rio singing "Smells like teen spirit". You're gonna love it.
nope, is terrible
Nice choice,Cassia was our jewel ☺
Do Brasil, my country!! So happy to know you are listening to Cássia!! 🇧🇷
You're right! She is very cool! I love Cassia Eller! ❤
Mesmo sem compreender a letra ela pega legal a essência da música e a voz da lenda! Mano Cassia Eller é Cassia Eller mores!

Cássia Eller died in 2001. If she were alive, she would be 60 years old. One of the best female voices Brazil has ever had! Beautiful Tribute!
for more brazilian music!
Oh, Beth, I love it How you are always talking about brazilian artists. There are many excellent singers throughtout the World, but It is amazing when someone abroad gives visibility to what Brazil has in its best: art, music, culture. Thank you! Cassia was amazing. You should check out her son, Chicão. He has similar voice Power and is very autentic.
Cassia is the real deal. I Heard a old tape by her..she was kind of finding her "voice" singing in a really high register. Pitch perfect! Strong at the same time so fragile. RIP Cassia.
React Ana Carolina - Quem de nós dois she's amazing♥️🇧🇷
You should try her song "segundo sol" it's amazing and one of my favorites songs.
7:30 --> She was saying "I drive my car", that sound she makes is like the engine roaring. The next thing she says is "I drink my booze", she's punk AF.
I AGREE WITH YOU, HER VOICE IS AMAZING...
Shes from my home town and I had classes with the same grammar teacher that gave her classes. Once we asked about her and he described her as a very quiet, almost shy girl who was always with her acoustic guitar everywhere she went ❤
Cássia and Amy are the singers I most like ever. I'd like you had choose a more dynamic song, she sings a lot in english too. Anyway, good work, as always.
Beth, listen to a Milton Nascimento song "Para Lennon e McCartney".
Up
Eu tava vindo comentar isso agorinha mesmo, se bem que podia ser uma do Clube da Esquina tbm (qualquer uma na real) aquilo é uma obra-prima vocal
UP!!
Legal. Up
What a perfect suggestion!
Great brazilian singer, listen Mílton Nascimento "San Vicente" next time.
I think It would be awesome if she react to him singing "Beatriz" instead
“Maria, maria” Milton Nascimento

Foi uma artista incrível do Rock Brasileiro, ela bem louca, uma personalidade ímpar !! Perdemos muitos artistas do Rock Brasileiro de forma trágica , muito triste !!
I'm a big fan of the Cassia Eller, so I can told you talk about her exactly same way we know her. Tks for this video, Cassia stay here with us in our minds and hearts!
Eterna cássia! ❤🇧🇷
She was, and still is up to this day, one of the best singers Brazil had ever had.
I still remember where I was and what I was doing when I heard the news of her passing, I was such a huge fan of her even at a young age and it felt as if I had lost someone close.
You definitely should react to Ana Carolina e Seu Jorge - É isso aí. I believe you'll absolutely love it.
Beth, I miss your classes! Please, react to Milton Nascimento, nana Caymmi, Gal Costa, Ná Ozzetti, Caetano Veloso, Maria Bethânia, Ney Matogrosso, Elza Soares, Monica Salmaso!
and Marisa Monte!
Acrescento à sua postagem Tetê Espíndola, Clara Nunes, Beth Carvalho, Alcione e por aí vai.
CASSIA ELLER AND ELIS REGINA PRA ME, ARE THE MOST EXPRESSIVE VOICES IN BRAZIL !! CONGRATULATIONS!!
Congratulations to BethRoars! Great analysis
She said on 7'23'' : "I drive my car.. rrrrrrr"
There is a video that Cassia, together with Edson Cardeiro, sings "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction". It is really amazing. I think would be awesome if you do a reacting to that video:
ruclips.net/video/AR649Y55BmI/видео.html
Reaction is Cassia Eller music O Segundo Sol.
OMG this is a CLASSIC. I was a kid when she released this song. A lot of what you’re picking up is the way CARIOCAS say stuff (accent). I just wish she was alive today so I could go to her concerts. She was one of the greatest female rock singers in Brazil 🇧🇷.
Cássia Eller Queen of Brazil ( will always be )...I love her voice !!!
