Revolution and reinvention are in Daniela Mercury’s blood. At sixteen she began performing in bars in Salvador da Bahia and discovered that her calling in life was music. Her passion for Bahian Carnaval led to the ultimate challenge of singing in a trio elétrico. Mercury took to the rolling, amplified bandstand that lumbers down the avenue among Carnaval revelers at a time in which only men sang in blocos. Since then the festa barroca has become her milieu of choice for redefining her artistry.

Musa Calabar Lyrics

Daniela Mercury

Voc me disse que no canta
Que no dana nem balana
Mas se acaba l no Cla
Mas se acaba l no Cla
Mas se acaba l no Cla
Mas se acaba l no Cla
Calabar caramba, cla
Quando v bragad
Baticum brungundum
Voc se manifesta
O afinado da banda
Te leva a esmo
Voc nem protesta
No meio da multido
Com as mo para cima
Aparando as arestas
Vai cantando o refro
Que no d pra esquecer
Essa parafernlia
Ainda vai te enlouquecer
Desde o princpio do mundo
O poeta falou
Um canto pra voc
Que ainda vers
A mudana do tempo
Se junte pra ver
J avisou a vizinha
Que abra a janela
A banda vai passar
V danar no Cla
Calabar, caramba, Cla
