How Small
In the Adirondacks (New York State),
from Canada,
listening to the Brazilian
Caetano Veloso
singing Paloma
in Spanish,
reading Mesa Selimovic's
story about WWII
on the Bosnian mountain
Majevica,
I felt like crying,
not from sadness.

Beautiful song. Thanks for introducing him to me.
I found out about Caetano from Martin (who used to be crazy about Brazilian music) and my Brazilian friend Tatiana. I just love this performance of La Paloma (which, by the way, is from the soundtrack for "Talk to Her" by Almodovar): it highlights perfectly his almost unbearably fragile voice.
