Aye. There's a definite sitar-like quality to it... and here I was thinking it was a Brazilian. ;)
Wow, you know the sitar :touched:

Some. The occasional Amália Rodrigues and some of her modern contemporaries. I once saw Mariza perform live here ... that was a really good show.

But Fado for me is a little like reggae: it's really good for a few songs, but after that it makes me stupid (sorry, Jack ;) ).

The classic contrast between the Portuguese and the Brazilians is evident in their national music. The Portuguese are dark, forlorn, and all dramatic, and the Brazilians want to party with their clothes off. My wife says she wishes she grew up in a Brazilian family instead. :p
Yea totally agree, that's why I never really got into it. There's only 2 fado style songs on my computer, can't stand it otherwise; too depressing. On the other hand my computer's overflowing with Brazilian music :scared:

The remaining hour, they are arrogant pricks who happen to be good at kicking balls. It means:

Conceicao - the player
Acai - the berry

oh, that would require you to get breast implants, a penis extension, and a tight yellow dress. Do you have any idea what all that is going to cost?









When you said "Brazilian" you were talking code for "Tranny", right?

Now explain the Czech Republic, wise guy :D

someone has to defend the poor lad.

He's not saying that they couldn't play in white, but croatia's jersey is supposed to be red&white, and apparently it was too white. that's all.

Germany and Czech Republic's jersey's are meant to be white.



Wise guy. :D

On the subject of jerseys...

I came across an old image in one of my folders. Here's a bittersweet one for Nick. I call it "The Unknown Sheva".

Seems appropriate these days on several levels I suppose. Here's to the memories of great players of past club glories. :pint:
