Jobim was always fond of journeys and checking the sights and sounds. Otherwise it seems random AF. Brazilian culture accepts lyrics from a way broader church than the West.
That's the depth of this music.
I guess I end up feeling the opposite, like so much English-language music has boring lyrics because they always talk about the same things? There's definitely an openness to Brazilian lyrics that you don't see as much in English. Things can be much more abstract and poetic, but even old school samba can get philosophical in ways that something like a jazz standard doesn't even attempt. Or maybe if you did that in English you just end up sounding something like "In and around the lake / The mountains come out of the sky / AND STAND THERE!!!!"BTW the chorus in O Boto is actually quoting an old tune called Do Pilá
I like this version, it's from a project that rerecorded old tunes that had been recorded on 78s. This badly needs a vinyl release, I'd love a box of 45s of the tracks on there.
