The revelation came when they were asked to change their repertoire from the more danceable country music to romantic songs. They participated in the program TV roomFrom Earththis Wednesday, 10. Cauan said they have become popular shots dancers, but who had the desire to change and create something that would “mark people’s lives”.
“We sang it there because it was very fashionable, in that ballad period, and we played it at night, in clubs, in concert halls. And that was what people liked to hear dancing to, you know, that thing. But our essence is romantic music, and we always said, ‘Someday we’ll do a romantic song, God willing,’” he recalled.
The song in question was Dreama composition by Juliano Tchula and Zé Neto and Cristiano, which they consider one of the highlights of their career. However, until they found the right tone, they suffered from prejudices due to the musical style. “We thought that when you sing ‘ballad music’, which we call backstage, the duo doesn’t have much respect. […] In country music, when you sing romantic music, you are more respected as an artist who actually sings. The artist who just sings is usually labeled as an artist who doesn’t have much content,” Cauan explained.
“We too have suffered a bit from this prejudice towards entrepreneurs in the sector. I’ll tell you something very quickly here, but there was a very important manager in the music world, Marcinho Costa, and he was interested in the duo, and he went to Goiânia. […] When he went to try to invest in us, to close something with different people, he went to Goiânia and someone, and we found out that even a businessman said that “the boys don’t sing anything, it’s just a little song””, Cleber revealed.
He said the comment raised concerns between the two. “We realized what a turning point it would be to sing romantic songs. And God gave us the gift of being able to work on this music and really start to be respected as a country duo,” he explained.
