ENGLISH TRANSLATION BELOW

Voltar pra Salvador, a letra dessa musica saiu de um bate papo online com meu pai, quando ele perguntava quando eu iria visitá-lo, e isso foi logo depois que ele retornou do seu passeio por aqui no hemisfério norte. Mas enquanto eu digitava tudo rimava, e rimou de novo, rsrs. Aí, eu terminei de escrever a letra da música, gravei um esboço e mandei como resposta.

Ele sempre gostou da cena do mercado, do freguês barganhando e do Pelourinho.
Escute com carinho essa musica que eu fiz pra seu Nonô, ele também aparece no video.

Aproveitei pra relembrar o nosso merengue baiano, um dos primeiros ritmos usados pelo Olodum, ainda de quando eu morava em Salvador, hoje eu vivo em Cleveland-Ohio USA. Gravei esse trabalho aqui e no Brasil.

Muito obrigado a todos que colocaram energia nesse projeto, seja nos bastidores, editando audio ou video, gravando instrumentos, vozes, virando a noite, especialmente aos amigos Jorge Wilson da MW Cinevideo que preparou o video com tanto carinho, e Marcelus Leone que me ajudou a produzir o som, também acho ele o melhor saxofonista que a Ivete Sangalo ja teve na vida.
Curta e compartilhe, um grande abraço.
Moises Borges.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

Voltar pra Salvador, the lyrics of this song came out from a online chat I was having with my dad, while he was asking when I was going to visit him, and this was right after he returned from his visit here on the northern hemisphere. But while I was typing everything was riming, and rimed again haha. Then I finished writing the lyrics of the song, recorded a draft and sent him as the answer.

He always liked of the market scene, of the client bargaining and of Pelourinho.
Listen with your heart the song that I wrote for Mr. Nonô, he also appears in the video.

I took advantage of the opportunity to remember our merengue from Bahia, one of the first rhythms used by the Olodum (Afro band from Bahia State-Br), from when I still lived in Salvador. Today I live in Cleveland Ohio USA. I recorded this track here and in Brazil.

Thank you very much to everyone that put energy in this project, either behind the scenes, editing audio or video, recording instruments, vocals, working very late hours, especially to my friends Jorge Wilson form MW Cinevideo who prepared the video with so much care, and Marcelus Leone who helped me to produce the audio, I also think he is the best saxophonist that Ivete Sangalo (a pop star from Brazil) has ever had in her life.
Enjoy and share, and a big hug.
Moises Borges.
