Tempos Que Não Voltam

Portuguese acoustic pop ballad with a slow swaying pulse, fingerpicked guitar in verses, a stripped pre-chorus that opens into warm piano and low strings, and a chorus that lifts with stacked harmonies and gentle handclaps; intimate close-mic lead vocal, breathy doubles on key lines, soft delay throws on the hook, vinyl crackle and reversed swells between sections, polished but tender mix with a wide emotional chorus
