A nice history!
The year was 1985. My mom and father lived in Rio de Janeiro - Brazil and they were very excited with the first Rock in Rio. Bands like Iron Maiden, Rod Stewart and Queen was the line-up of the first Rock festival in Brazil. And my parents were there. My mother didn't know but I was there also. And while they listened Freddie Mercury sung "Love of My Life", I was growin' up in her "belly".
I love music! In my childhood, I remember my father listening Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, The Animals, Iron Maiden... My mother listening Queen and a great Brazilian singer Roberto Carlos. My brother learning to play guitar...
All my memories are relate to music.
I have a band (i'm a singer) but all my lyrics are in Portuguese (my mother tongue). But I ever like to listen songs in English. And because of that, I would like to learn and write songs in English.
I'm not fluent in the language yet but i'll be.
Below, this is my first lyrics in English. The song is called "Better" and I don't recorded. Maybe have been some mistakes...
"I need to express my fellings...
Wings... born in my dreams...
I don't wish a desert... Like your home...
Better than before... in my song...
Love can't make you better in your home...
This is my place...
This is my place...
And I thought a song for you…
Would make you better… better…
I wish a place too better for us…
Wings… Coming up behind me
I don’t like a desert… No water
Better than before… in my home…
Love can make it better in my home…
This is our place…
This is our place…
And I Thought a song for you…
Would make you better… better…"
Thanks!
I like your writing here! Writing lyrics in a foreign language can be very difficult. Bom trabalho!
Hey Ewan! I would like to say thank you for correcting the mistakes on my posts. Write in english is a challenge for me.
Escrever en português é difícil para mim também
I help you if you want. "escrever em* português". For me, portuguese grammar is very difficult.
