Скачать или смотреть PORTUGAL EUROVISION 2022 - REACTING TO ‘SAUDADE SAUDADE’ BY MARO (FIRST LISTEN…WOWZERS)

Hi guys! Welcome back to my channel! If you’re new here, my name’s Rachel and I’m a huge Eurovision fan. In todays video, I reacted to Portugal’s song for ESC 2022, ‘Saudade Saudade’ by Maro.

Portugal after winning in 2017 have come back every year with quality tracks, not necessarily designed for the contest, but more as a show of the Portuguese musical culture and styles, which I REALLY love.

In this case, Maro has brought forward a song that is so subtle yet so stunningly beautiful. The delicate vocals accompanied by the organic and ethereal guitar lines create such a wonderful combination that I wouldn’t dare change anything about it. And then the backing vocals get added in on top, yet again creating this lovely texture that should be admired and not changed.

What I love about the harmonies, is that they aren’t your stereotypical classic harmony part writing - they’re chordal in texture, yes, and don’t weave in a polyphonic style, but they move and create suspended notes and encircle the melody line from both sides to really just create this wonderful sound experience. It’s great.

I am really impressed with this song, and can’t wait to keep listening.
