Even the dictatorship era can be made to look comfy with Bossa Novahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jg3c1rsEebgIn my country, when we think of Brazil we think of fashionable women on the beach listening to music or young lovers going to their local Bossa nova lounge to relax and have fun and discuss philosophy or literature. Literally nothing Brazil can do can ever stop this perception. I've been to Brazil, and the perception is still strong as ever for me.I can't stop loving Brazil. I exist, therefore I love Brazil. It's that simple.
the fact that brazils image is stuck in the post war is a sign they're not a soft power powerhouse
>>219817740Quite the opposite. I encourage you to visit Brazil and you'll see that the "dream" of what Brazil is is very much still alive. Brazil is the one country I went to in my entire life where I just feel fucking ill and sick when I'm not there and I've been to over 55 countries.
>>219817784I literally have this horrible longing to return every day. And when I go to a new country there's this voice in the back of my head saying what's the point, I could be exploring Brazil more.
>>219817714>Bossa NovaSorry I guess Juco is more tropicalia or MPB but same vibe (as a foreigner in the romantic part of my brain)
>>219817740Why is it that whenever there's a thread celebrating Brazil or loving on Brazil there's some salty ass Mexican who has to come in and try to ruin the party? Brazil doesn't even fucking think of Mexico lol
>>219817714I just see it as tropical mexico
>>219817714brazilians are a groovy upbeat people, we are neither of those, brazilian propaganda doesn't register with us.
>>219817714Thank you for loving Brazil! I love America too!
>>219819182So you should go to Brazil and learn life there
Lusophone civilisation > Hispanophone civilisation
>>219817714>tropacalia>samba>baile funk>bossa nova>popozuda rock and rollHow does one nation do all of this?
