I've honestly never seen a bad cover of this song. It's like there's no way you could go wrong if you try it. I definitely recommend watching the 1985 movie Brazil; it kind of makes one love the song even more.
The original version was sung by Francisco Alves with orchestration by Radames Gnattali in the late 1930s. The songs composer Ary Barroso wrote the original Portuguese lyrics, which are beautiful but completely different from the English lyrics. I really like this version though it reminds me of the Asylum Street Spankers version, which was the first version of this magnificent song I ever heard. Thank you very much for uploading.
Brazil, where hearts were entertaining June We stood beneath an amber moon And softly whispered, "Someday soon" We kissed and clung together Then - tomorrow was another day The morning found us miles away With still a million things to say And now, the twilight moves the skies above Recalling thrills of our love There's one thing I'm certain of Return, I will, to old Brazil Brazil, where hearts were entertaining June We stood beneath an amber moon And softly whispered, "Someday soon" We kissed and clung together Then - tomorrow was another day The morning found us miles away With still a million things to say And now when twilight moves the skies above Recalling thrills of our love There's one thing I'm certain of Return, I will, to old Brazil
Wowee, had no idea this was a cover - you learn something new every day! This is just great, the Arcade Fire are just so melodically rich. Winning all the way to Rio!
My mistake, you are absolutely correct. I'd thought that Django's version was the original. You learn something new every day! Well, despite my incorrect statements, I still recommend you listen to his cover! Sorry about that!
if I've seen the movie (which I've said I've seen) then it's obvious I know arcade fire wasn't the original artist, they weren't even around to cover it in the 80's, this is a cover, this is a theme song to a brazil, thanks for your lovely comments
You should definitely give the suburbs album a listen; this is one of their early albums funeral (i recommend rebellion(lies) and in the backseat) hehe
To me Funeral is their best album, most people like the Suburbs more though. This is more art rock and indie while suburbs is more rock. My favorite arcade fire song is “Neighborhood 1 (Tunnels)” but the whole album is beautiful
+dakkehdak I found in on a '45 as the B side to "Cold Wind" although I listen to this more often than Cold Wind. It's a pretty dope clear vinyl pressing
The original Brazil is PLAYED by Django Reindhardt's trio. It is a FANTASTIC piece and I strongly recommend you listen to the original version. As a HUGE fan of Django's playing and an equally passionate fan of Arcade Fire, this cover might as well be from one of my daydreams. Thanks for having great taste, Arcade Fire.
Django Reindhardt's trio and Arcade Fire are FANTASTIC but FYI the original version was sung by Francisco Alves with orchestration by Radames Gnattali in the late 1930s. The song's composer Ary Barroso wrote the original Portuguese lyrics and the title is "Aquarela do Brasil" :)
yes, mr. yellowhammer...bring that european doom and gloom to the cheerful american song...what else could you possibly do?...but where is the lana del the rey to wail some back vocals to it, sadly?
O único amor recíproco da minha vida é Arcade Fire. Felizmente eles amam os brasileiros
O meu sentimento é o mesmo kdskdskdskks
Most of these people hate Brazilians
Everything is wonderful and bad at the same time
Liga pra mim não tá carai
Só aceito o amor deles quando tiver essa música no spotify ;-;

I wanted to speak that language shit fluently but you confuse me
It's pretty amazing that Django Reinhardt and the Vengaboys can both do this song justice in totally different ways.

oh at least one person here knows that this song is a Brazilian song... :)
This is so important to me
Arcade Fire realmente mandou bem regravando Ary Barroso.
BRASIL-SIL-SIL-SIL-SIL
Beautiful version of a great song. Love the ending.
Brazil, where hearts were entertaining June
We stood beneath an amber moon
And softly whispered, "Someday soon"
We kissed and clung together
Then - tomorrow was another day
The morning found us miles away
With still a million things to say
And now, the twilight moves the skies above
Recalling thrills of our love
There's one thing I'm certain of
Return, I will, to old Brazil

This lyrics are not accurate..... ugh..
Sempre gosto de vir aqui de tempos em tempos, espero que nunca saia do ar esse vídeo. Essa música me da uma sensação nostálgica maravilhosa
Just bought a copy of this on vinyl, pretty excited to get it in the mail!
David Zuniga did it have this song too? The normal record doesn’t
How?
@@Lovestains31 you gotta look up arcade fire cold wind vinyl, it’s a single you can get for like 25$, Brazil is the B side
Ary Barroso - Aquarela do Brasil (Brasil)...
Antonio Carlos Jobim would be proud... Amazing piece.

* Ary Barroso
Letra original e música são de Ary Barroso.

The absolute best cover of this Song I have ever heard! Thanks for Posting this!
Please come to Brazil
This is the best version of "Brazil".
Arcade Fire makes me realise that in some place in my brain I always love this song, I always want to go return.... I will to old brazil.........
My mistake, you are absolutely correct. I'd thought that Django's version was the original. You learn something new every day! Well, despite my incorrect statements, I still recommend you listen to his cover!
Sorry about that!
it's a cover and theme to a film called brazil, you gotta see that movie
well I said cover
if I've seen the movie (which I've said I've seen) then it's obvious I know arcade fire wasn't the original artist, they weren't even around to cover it in the 80's, this is a cover, this is a theme song to a brazil, thanks for your lovely comments
cool story, thanks for the comment
I love how passive aggressive these comments are
There are parts of the song that pull from the Brazil film score. It’s a cover of the original song as well as parts of the film score
Fucking love this. Love this band.
Return I will to old Brazil...
Always a fave! ❤️💙👍🏼
Uma música bem atemporal.
Aaaaaaahhhhh😍😍😍❤❤❤❤ Arcade seus crazy , love u kraiiii
nostalgie
i only have this live from bsides / rarities... i want this one!
que obra
🇧🇷❤️
I do not need a translation, here's a fucking Brazilian. É sério Brasil aqui carai
There isn't an original, as far as I know. This song is based on Ary Barroso's "Aquarela do Brasil", though. =]
Great cover of a great song from a great movie
The Coasters also sang this in the 50s.
Brasileiro ?
Sublime.
mas ninguém sabe que é uma música brasileira...
This make me cry
Why isnt this song available in any streaming service .. it is so giid
No iTunes No Spotify =S
Exactly. So sad.
That's a shame
So fucking sad
They had before
I Love This !
Can someone recommend me tunes so I can start listening to Arcade Fire? I don't know much about them but this cover is so goooood! Thx a million!
You should definitely give the suburbs album a listen; this is one of their early albums funeral (i recommend rebellion(lies) and in the backseat) hehe
Paulo Vinicius Maya their newest album “everything now” is also fantastic
To me Funeral is their best album, most people like the Suburbs more though. This is more art rock and indie while suburbs is more rock. My favorite arcade fire song is “Neighborhood 1 (Tunnels)” but the whole album is beautiful
Que perfeitosssssssss
Moó foda!
2:40 oof
Funeral 🏴➕
standing beneath an amber moon!
I'm dying to get a hold of this on vinyl, somebody let me know if you find it!
+dakkehdak I found in on a '45 as the B side to "Cold Wind" although I listen to this more often than Cold Wind. It's a pretty dope clear vinyl pressing
+jackmckean Yes! Thank you, I dug around and bought a copy.
