[dhodo]

I say not yet! It forces us to check out more music as we consider the possibilities.

I dunno, I feel like we hit a wall.

 

[dhodo]

is my liking a comment NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU?

oh, okay, in that case... yes, please, sir, a clue.

Ha, same. Yes, please.

This isn't the clue, btw

 

[Waitressboy]

The funniest part of this thread is that we're going to know that the artist was born in Brazil and that helps us in ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

 

[agutierrezb]

Ok, here's your clue:

The artist was born very close to the ocean, a fact that is reflected on this person's music.

So, one out of two:
1- the artist is from Río or Bahia or some place like that (carnival, garota de ipanema, etc.)
2- the artist is from Madagascar and we are SO SO SO WRONG and @agutierrezb is having a blast reading our theories.

Elis Regina/Antônio Carlos Brasileiro de Almeida Jobim
Paco De Lucia
Camarón de la Isla

Hmm...Elis Regina was born in Porto Alegre, which is by a rivers and lakes. Seems she may be out as a solo. BUT
Tom Jobim was born in Rio (by the ocean).
Paco De Lucia was born in Algeciras. Algeciras - Wikipedia
Camarón de la Isla was born in San Fernando, Cádiz.

So...water water everywhere

My favorite part of that cover is the parenthetical ess.

 

[supahypeag]

That statue of Camaron looks a lot like that one dude kneeling in that one screenshot of the NY location...but I think that kneeling guy was ruled out as the clue-meaning? I don't know anything anymore.

1 real hit, others are subject to listener's taste lmfao

Yeah, someone suggested the meaning had something to do with a kid seen on Street View, and I suggested not to follow that path

Lol, that works for all three on my list. Going to have to dig to verify the music part I guess.

Hey, listening is the best part of this club, isnt it?

 

[gafacaode]

Hey, listening is the best part of this club, isnt it?

Is the ocean reflected in the artist's oeuvre or just in this particular album?

 

[dhodo]

Hey, listening is the best part of this club, isnt it?

Oh, for sure. Not a genuine complaint.

I think Lake Guaiba is a saltwater Lake/Bay/Lagoon connected to the ocean, so you could argue that Elis still works.

 

[gafacaode]

Elis Regina's songs aren't particularly about the ocean though.
