5 out of 5 stars Here's what the bonus tracks are.......2004-08-17

This is a worthy successor to her debut album _Fado Em Mim_ and is just as good. Fado is similar to Spanish flamenco music (I mean "old school flamenco") in that both genres are stifled by tradition. There are people who resist new songs being written and think that the best performers died a long time ago. The New Flamenco movement saved flamenco and made it live again. Fado desperately needs such a movement. I had hoped that Ala Dos Namorados would start it, but they turned out to be a pop band. They are excellent, but they are not the vanguards of a Novo Fado movement. Mariza is fado's bright hope, a talented visionary who will breathe life into this worthy genre and cause it to live for future generations.
I can really add nothing that hasn't been said in the reviews of the regular US release of this CD. The "bonus tracks" on this CD are VERY disappointing. They are - "O Gente Da Minha Terra" and "Barco Negro" from the _Fado Em Mim_ CD. They are great songs, especially the amazing "Barco Negro", but since they were released on her first CD, there is no reason at all to buy this Japanese import. It's also copy-protected.
