è vero ! dopo 2 settimane di prove, sto entrando in questa dolcissima canzone. grazie Williams per essere "il virgilio di dante " per noi dannati , alle prese con la musica :)
Lol! Thank you for these very kind words. I am glad you are getting into the song! well worth the effort, isn't it, Nicola? I suffered too to learn it at the time!!!
Some comments on the harmonic progression Moves from relative minor to relative major several times, oodles of 2-5-1's changing the key center transiently Also has frequent trips 1/2 way around the cycle of fifths, sometimes 4 chords, some 5-6 chords but never all the way around About halfway through the song it moves into the the key of A which is the IV major from initial of Eminor - for a short time only, falls out of it quickly I like to think of it in cut time or 2/4, 2 beats per measure And there is one tritone substitution as well Fascinating I wonder which came first, melody or chords ? Call me crazy but a unique song for sure !!
It is an amazing song indeed! Talk about accelerated harmonic rhythm! This song eluded me for months...I wanted to sing it AND play it at the same time!
Mann this tutorial got me playing/singing along at about 80% within 2 days ! Great video… slow speed really is to key to complex guitar songs! Once I get the chords down to 100% I’ll try to speed it up 😊😊 I also can’t speak the language of the lyrics but I can hum along and say a few stand out words as I go
You are most welcome! Please try to discover some of the other tutorials and covers. If you like the channel, please tell your friends too. Thank you again!

Thank you for your kind words Giovani. Much appreciated. Please check out the other songs and tutorials in the channel. Lots is interesting things I think. More than 220 videos. Good luck.
@@lore5862 it is one of the hardest songs...tempo and dense lyrics don't help... Let me know if you're looking for something in particular, I may be able to help...navigating the 160 videos currently in my channel is not an easy task...
Thank you. Watch lots of good quality videos. Learn your chords in many voicings. Be patient. Can you play this song now? If so, what is your next one?
@@WilliamSaadGuitar obrigado 🙏 I hope the next one is desde que O samba e samba. I found chords from other site but I think doesn't match from the song
How important do you feel is anticipation of certain chords? I have read that it is part of authentic common samba guitar rhythms or does the backing rhythm take care of that?
Renato Candro has a great series about what he calls the common samba rhythm and emphasizes that certain chords are anticipated and come early Some call this “pushed”
Very good technique indeed, to be mixed into normal playing. Easy to do the syncopation when chords are not changing across 2 measures but harder when chords are changing. Can sound forced or contrived if used excessively, in my view. Used in the right amounts, it does give Bossa and Samba a nice swing...
I also like the version Christophe Rousseau does in A minor To me, the melody seems to "sing out" more in A minor with male voice and up tempo ua-cam.com/video/FDKRAwx7gJQ/v-deo.html

Obrigado, pelo tutorial. Ouvi a versão de João Gilberto e é genial, segundo Gilberto Gil foi a única composição dele que João gravou.

Thank you!!!
extremely helpful, many thanks
Glad to hear that! Amazing song.
great tutorial
I might say the song may be a little short on melody
Lyrics and chords great however
This is really the song that led me to Bossa Nova/ Samba. I had to play it!
I created the chord sheet. It is in the description now. Thank you for the suggestion. Enjoy.
@@WilliamSaadGuitar thank you!
Thaaankuuu😍😍

brilliant

Certains terminent par la 7 ré 9 sol 7 Sur eu vim da Bahia .
Thank you, Jean. I’ll check it out.
How important do you feel is anticipation of certain chords?
I have read that it is part of authentic common samba guitar rhythms or does the backing rhythm take care of that?
Here is Nelson Faria talking about this
No translation but the point is made
ua-cam.com/video/0ZwKQxq_5eE/v-deo.htmlsi=sjFtcy7n2rCWNWeY
Renato Candro has a great series about what he calls the common samba rhythm and emphasizes that certain chords are anticipated and come early
Some call this “pushed”
And there are many variations
Very good technique indeed, to be mixed into normal playing. Easy to do the syncopation when chords are not changing across 2 measures but harder when chords are changing.

Yes..amazing...
I also like the version Christophe Rousseau does in A minor
To me, the melody seems to "sing out" more in A minor with male voice and up tempo

Very nice version...
can't find the full speed video
? help ?
