""Quanto tempo tenho para matar essa saudade?"...The opening words to the first song, "Nobre Vagabundo" run through my mind time and again, as I listen to this CD for the umteenth time and remember my trip to Bahia. I think a large part of that "saudade" is this great CD and others like it filled with they unmatchable mix of rhythms and instruments from Bahia. Daniela is a Bahian icon, for Carnival, for gays, for Bahians, and she deserves it so much. And this CD is probably still her best, more perfect than her earlier work, but less sleek and refined than the CDs she has put out since. This will probably be THE Daniela Mercury classic CD for a while to come until her next true landmark (though I don't mean to put anyone off from getting her other CDs of course, since they are also highly enjoyable!) A few ballads, a few of what are now Carnival classics, a very well-known tune or two (e.g., "Você abusou")...Great lyrics. I have been dying for Daniela to give a concert somewhere near me ever since I discovered her, since she must be awesome live."
THE P.E.R.F.E.C.T. ALBUM !!!!!!!!

"Daniela's got it all and this album is the perfect example. The variety of rythms and the arrangements are absolutely awesome, her energy is peerless and the music cannot get any better. If you are into Brazilian Music, this is your album, don't let this jewel pass you by, purchase it immediately you'll love it as I have for a long time already."

"What a great artist and album! I first heard her music 5 yrs ago through a friend in Brazil and fell in love with it. Feijao com arroz is by far her best one yet. Best songs have to be Nobre Vagabundo, Feijao de Corda, Minas com Bahia and Bate Couro. Buy it NOW!"
Energy disquised as a CD!

"I received this CD as a birthday gift from my Argentinian friend and I abso-freakin-lutely LOVE it! :D Although I don't speak or comprehend a word of Portuguese, I listen to this CD DAILY. Those of you on the road to getting fit, YOU NEED THIS CD! It is light, up-beat and very positive sounding and it has been really motivational for me to listen as I walk for an hour every day, when I work out, or even when I just need to relax and be mellow. I can't have enough POSITIVE things to say about Daniela Mercury's Feijao Com Arroz...in fact, all of her CDs are now on my ever-growing Wish List of Music! Definitely check this CD and this artist out!"
