the chorus of the song “Ragatanga” who conquered Brazil in the 2000s with the group girl pop Brazilian Rouge has always been a challenge for even the most dedicated fans.
Even “possessed by the ragatanga rhythm”, it is difficult to hit the chorus that contains verses like “aserejé, ja deje tejebe tude jebere” . Bruna Griphao, participant of Big Brother Brasil, who says.
During a conversation with the ex-Rouge Aline Wirley the actress tried in vain to learn how to correctly sing the chorus of the song that dragged crowds across Brazil in past decades.

Even if she tried hard, Bruna could not reach the “magic and pure soul” of Diego, the protagonist of the composition. But she can’t blame her.
Even though it’s not as difficult as “Ragatanga”, there’s no shortage of songs that we thought we knew the words to, but in reality weren’t what we had in mind.
Check out some songs that maybe you’ve always sung wrong:
Xibom BomBom – The girls
Starting with one of the most famous songs precisely because it is sung wrongly, we have the success Ximbom BomBom, from the musical group The girls .
Who never sang excitedly about the “chair, which is for the beach”? Well, actually this chair, unfortunately, never existed in the lyrics of the song.
Wrong version: Analyzing this chair, it’s for the beach , I want to get out of this precarious situation.
Right version: Analyzing this hereditary chain I want to get out of this precarious situation.
The good news is that the beach chair was not in a precarious situation.
analyzing this chair it is for the beach
I want to get out of this precarious situation

Ceiling glass – Pitty
Pitty has always been marked by strong and impactful lyrics. It couldn’t be any different in music Ceiling glass , one of the songs from the first album of his career, “Admirable New Chip” .
In the composition, the singer questions who can “close their eyes and sleep in peace” while millions of voices are screaming.
To our relief, it is not necessary to use violence to achieve peace. So who sang? “Whoever doesn’t have a piece of glass, let him throw the first stone” you can leave the piece of glass on the floor anyway.
In reality, the singer sings “who doesn’t have a glass ceiling” an expression that means that we also have our weaknesses, so we shouldn’t judge others.
Wrong version: Who do not have glass shard who cast the first stone.
Right version: Who do not have ceiling glass who cast the first stone.
I went to listen to pitty and I always sang “who doesn’t have a SHARP glass throw the first stone” and actually it’s “who doesn’t have a glass ceiling throw the first stone” I always thought she wanted to throw a shard of glass and she didn’t, then threw stone 🙏🏼 pic.twitter.com/LnUsRJsVU7

Arere – Ivete Sangalo
The “Queen of Brazil” Ivete Sangalo declares himself to love in one of his greatest hits, “Arerê” .
The passionate verse in which Ivete asks God to “I won’t leave you, I’ll take you wherever you go, anywhere” it can easily be used as a declaration of love for someone you love (you can send it now to your loved one, guaranteed success).
Therefore, it would not be absurd if the chorus of the song was “Arerê, um love, love, love with you”. But Ivete’s repertoire goes far beyond this repetition of words.
The Bahian sings, in fact, “a lobby, a hobby, a love with you”.
Wrong version: Arere, one love, love, love like you.
Right version: Arere, one lobby, a hobby, a love like you.
how old were you when you found out that it’s not “arere a love love love with you”
and yes “there is a lobby, a hobby, a love with you”MY LIFE WAS A LIE #Ivete50 pic.twitter.com/1muNw6ibs4

Trickery – Cassia Eller
the eternal Cassia Eller brought to life the success written by cazuza It is frejat . In the lyrics we can think, in a moment contrary to princess stories, that the “prince turned into a frog”.
Breaking some of the magic of fables, Cassia Eller actually asks “if the prince became a bore?”.
It is still a phrase that demonstrates the character’s disappointment in life, but it is a little less fanciful than we thought.
Wrong version: who knows the prince turned into a frog ? Who lives in my bag.
Right version: who knows the prince became a bore ? Who lives in my bag.
what do you mean cassia eller’s song isn’t: maybe the prince turned into a frog??????

My Soul – The Rappa
“My gun is armed and pointed at the suspect’s face.”
The scene described in the song played by the band The Rappa it would fit nicely into a scene from action movies or crime shows. But no, the man wasn’t about to shoot the suspect.
In fact, this man just wants peace. The poetic lyrics say that “my soul is aimed at the face of peace”.
Wrong version: Mine weapon is armed and pointed at the face of suspect .
Right version: Mine soul is armed and pointed at the face of quiet .
yesterday me and jaiminho discussing bunches on the street to know who knew my soul of rappa right
my version: my soul is armed and aimed at the face of peace if you’re voiceless you’re voiceless
his version: my gun is armed and pointed at the suspect’s face

Woman of phases – Raimundos
Carnival is over, but many are proud to say that they have a lasting relationship with revelry throughout the year.
This is certainly not the case for the poor guy who got kicked out of the house in the song. “Woman of phases” one of the band’s biggest hits Raimundos .
The passage, sung by many party lovers like “my dating is in the revelry”, is actually nothing more than a man’s outburst who needs to mark his girlfriend’s phases on the calendar.
After all, who told him to like this woman of phases?
Wrong version: My dating is in the revelry woman of phases.
Right version: My dating is on the sheet woman of phases.
I found out today, at the age of 24, that I sang “Mulher De Fases” wrong all this time 🤡
I used to sing “my dating is in the revelry” being that it is “FOLHINHA” 😭

Ocean – Djavan
Our poet and incorrigible romantic djavan is marked by its lyrics that personify love in a way that we, mere mortals, could not even conceive in our minds.
In one of their main songs, “Ocean” the singer from Alagoas tells his beloved that “you flow into me, and I into the ocean. And I forget that loving is almost a pain .
At a given moment, some inattentive people may think that the artist abandons love to warn that “desert yellow” has its fears.
Of course, if you are touring inhospitable deserts around the world, better prepare yourself in the best way so as not to suffer in these environments.
But the passionate Djavan just wanted to warn about the suffering that love can cause. The singer uses the biome as a comparison for the feeling that he can also hurt his heart.
Wrong version: desert yellow and its tremors.
Right version: Loving is a desert and your fears.
One thing I don’t accept is the lyrics of Oceano do Djavan being “Love is a desert and its fears…” and not “Yellow, desert and its tremors”
