Monte’s last studio album O Que Voce Quer Saber De Verdade was met with mixed reviews on its release in 2011. But we know that Marisa Monte is prepared to deliver an awesome album, perhaps as soon as later this year.
Why else would she want to return to the studio scene?
But today, let’s revisit her first hist song. ‘Bem Que Se Quis’. It’s the song that propelled Monte to pop success.
Feliz Anniversario, Marisa!
