Dreaming of You / I Could Fall in Love

Anteontem não sai de casa e fiquei deitado na cama a ver televisão. O filme que estava a dar na RTP1 era a Selena, papel interpretado pela Jennifer Lopez sobre a cantora assassinada aos 23 anos. Confesso que não conhecia nada da mesma, mas desde ontem que ouço as músicas dela e adoro, em particular estas:

Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I'd stay up and think of you
And I'd wish on a star
That somewhere you are thinking of me too

Cuz I'm dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Then here in my room,
Dreaming about you and me

Wonder if you even see me
And I wonder if you know I'm there
If you looked in my eyes
Would you see what's inside?
Would you even care?

I just wanna hold you close
But so far, all I have are dreams of you
So, I wait for the day and the courage to say
How much I love you(Yes, I do)

I'll be dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Then here in my room,
Dreaming about you and me

Ahhh...I can't stop dreaming of you
Ahhh...I can't stop dreamin

Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I'd stay up and think of you
And I still can't believe that you came up to me
And said, "I love you; I love you too"

Now I'm dreaming with you tonight
Till tomorrow, and for all of my life
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Then here in my room,
Dreaming with you endlessly...
(by Selena)

Selena cresceu no meio duma familia humilde que cedo descobriu o gosto pela música. Cantava no grupo da familia, mas ganhou autonomia do grupo, ainda adolescente, lançando-se a solo e ganhando projecção internacional.
A vida dela terminou prematuramente aos 23 ao ser assassinada pela presidente do seu clube de fãs, por esta ter desviado dinheiro dos fãs e a cantora o ter descoberto.

I could lose my heart tonight,
If you don’t turn and walk away
Cause the way I feel I might
Lose control and let you stay
Cause I could take you in my arms,
And never let you go
I could fall in love with you
I could fall in love with you

I could only wonder how
Touching you would make you feel
But if I take that chance right now,
Tomorrow will you want me still?
(baby will you want me? )
So I should keep this to myself,
And never let you know
I could fall in love with you
(I could fall in love with you)
I could fall in love with you

And I know it’s not right,
And I guess I should try
To do what I should do
But I could fall in love,
Fall in love, with you
I could fall in love with you

Siempre estoy soñando en ti
Besando mis labios, acariciando mi piel
Abrazandome, con ansias locas
Imaginando que me amas
Como yo podría amar a ti
(translation:
I’m always dreaming of you
Kissing my lips, caressing my skin
Hugging me with crazy longings
Imagining that you love me
The way that I could love you)

So I should keep this to myself,
And never let you know
I could fall in love with you
I could fall in love with you
I could fall in love, (fall in love)
I could fall in love, (fall in love) with you
I could fall in love with you.

Million Dollar Baby

Hoje dum dos meus poucos programas feitos com os meus pais, e aproveitando a ocasião por ter ido votar, fui dar uma volta ao shopping, acabando por ir ao cinema. O filme escolhido foi o Million Dollar Baby. Confesso que não sou muito fã do Clint Eastwood mas só o facto de ter a Hillary Swank e o Morgan Freeman, era um trunfo. Amei o filme. Não estava nada à espera dum filme tão bom.
Não irei contar a história do mesmo. Apenas que se trata do percurso duma boxeur.

Curiosos? Vão ver o filme...vale muito a pena!

Tem cá o meu voto para vencer os Oscars.

Do filme reti uma frase, que passa muitas vezes no ecrã:

"Winners are simply willing to do what losers aren't" .

Friendship

Tenho a agradecer a todas as pessoas que me têm apoiado até hoje...essas pessoas tal como eu compreendem o verdadeiro significado da amizade, apoiando-me, ouvindo e aconselhando nas alturas mais complicadas da minha vida.
Amigos são mesmo assim...Sem se preocuparem com religiões, cores, credos, crenças e não só. Essas pessoas só posso mesmo considerar especiais.

Não sei o que posso dizer, a não ser isto...

Muito obrigado por serem as pessoas que são. Agradeço tudo o que tem feito por mim, sempre para me deixar a sorrir.

OBRIGADO! do fundo do coração

The Show Must Go On

Esta sempre foi uma das músicas que gostei dos Queen embora tivessem havido outras versões no passado...Hope you like it just Like I do...

Empty spaces - what are we living for
Abandoned places - I guess we know the score
On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for
Another hero, another mindless crime
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime
Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore
The show must go on
The show must go on
Inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on
Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance
Another heartache, another failed romance
On and on, does anybody know what we are living for
I guess I'm learning, I must be warmer now
I'll soon be turning, round the corner now
Outside the dawn is breaking
But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free
The show must go on
The show must go on
Inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on
My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
Fairytales of yesterday will grow but never die
I can fly - my friends
The show must go on
The show must go on
I'll face it with a grin
I'm never giving in
On - with the show -
I'll drop the bill, I'll overkill
I have to find the will to carry on
On with the -
On with the show -
The show must go on
(by Queen)

Lead the Way

Who would've believed
That you and me would fall
And land together
And who could've foreseen
In you I'd find the place
I've belonged forever
And if I move closer
Then love will take over
And lead the way
I'd given up hope
Losing the faith that love
Could be mine to treasure
And now
Nothing's the same
I found myself reborn
On the day I met you
And if we move closer
Then love will take over
And lead the way
Suddenly you are lying
Here with me and the truths
I used to hold have changed
And if I move closer
And let it take over
Then love will lead the way
And let it take over
Then love will lead the way
(by Mariah Carey)

Jesus to a Child

Esta é uma das músicas que diz mais na minha vida e é a que mais me faz chorar ainda hoje. Há uma pessoa que a conhece tão bem como eu, que fez parte da minha vida quando esta música tocava muito no meu pc...

Kindness
In your eyes
I guess
You heard me cry
You smiled at me
Like Jesus to a child

Im blessed
I know
Heaven sent
And Heaven stole
You smiled at me
Like Jesus to a child

And what have I learned
From all this pain
I thought Id never feel the same
About anyone
Or anything again

But now I know
When you find love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights

When youve been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when theres no hope in sight
(by George Michael)

Ajudem a Velhinha

Unwritten

I am unwritten, can`t read my mind, I`m undefined
I`m just beginning, the pen`s in my hand, ending unplanned

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your innovations
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Oh, oh, oh

I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines
We`ve been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can`t live that way

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inner visions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
To the years where your book begins

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
To the years where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inner visions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
To the years where your book begins

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
To the years where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten

Oh, yeah, yeah

Holding on For You

Para ti...

Sunshine fades to grey
The second I'm away
Minutes turn to hours
Without you
Time keeps marching on
Summers been and gone
And I'm still here alone
Still waiting.
I'm on my own
A million miles away
Temptation all around
It won't be long
So please be strong
Cos I'm holding on for you
Trust is all it takes
But people make mistakes
Cos we are only human
Lets face it
My struggle through the day
Pretending that I'm okay
I make believe that you're here
Beside me
Yes I'm on my own
A million miles away
Temptation all around
It won't be long
So please be strong
Cos I'm holding on for you
You are the one that I can truly believe in
So don't ever think that I would ever diss you baby
Without a doubt you are my rhyme and my reason
And I won't let you down
Coz I'm on my own
A million miles away
Temptation all around
It won't be long
So please be strong
Cos I'm holding on for you
I'm on my own
Feeling blue
Miles from home
I'm lost without you
But i'll be strong
Keep holding on
Holding on for you
(by Liberty X)

St. Valentines Day

Para todos um feliz dia dos Namorados...para os encalhados como eu...vamos tentando eheheh

Love me little, love me long,
Is the burden of my song.

Maybe...

Here I go climbing a mountain
It's much too high for me
And here I go crossing the ocean
Losing myself, getting lost in the sea
Where did I go wrong
When did I stop singing a love song

Maybe I was wrong
Maybe I was blind and could not see
Maybe you were never the one
Maybe you were not the one for me
Maybe

Here I go posing a question
Not sure of what I'll hear
Here I go refusing to let you answer
Until I make myself so very clear
We can take what was wrong
We can end these words in a love song

Maybe if we try
Maybe we can start again when we've already said good-bye
Maybe we can still be what we always dreamed that we could be

And I know that I was wrong to let you go
But I'm still holding on to let you know

Maybe I was wrong
Maybe I was blind and could not see
Oh but baby I'll be strong
And I'll sacrifice the very breath I breathe
If I could only hear you say to me
When I ask you if you think you still love me
Maybe

The Mummer's Dance

Who will go down to those shady groves
And summon the shadows there
And tie a ribbon on those sheltering arms
In the springtime of the year

The songs of birds seem to fill the wood
That when the fiddler plays
All their voices can be heard
Long past their woodland days

We’ve been rambling all the night
And some time of this day
(by Loreena Mckennitt)

Proud

Esta música toca-me particularmente e não sei bem porquê...

I look into the window of my mind
Reflections of the fears I know I've left behind
I step out of the ordinary
I can feel my soul ascending
I'm on my way
Can't stop me now
And you can do the same

What have you done today to make you feel proud?
It's never too late to try
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
You could be so many people
If you make that break for freedom
What have you done today to make you feel proud?

Still so many answers I don't know (there are so many answers)
Realise that to question is how we grow (to question is to grow)
So I step out of the ordinary
I can feel my soul ascending
I'm on my way
Can't stop me now
And you can do the same

What have you done today to make you feel proud?
It's never too late to try
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
You could be so many people
If you make that break for freedom
What have you done today to make you feel proud?

We need a change
Do it today
I can feel my spirit rising
(change, yeah) We need a change (yeah)
So do it today (yeah)
'Cause I can see a clear horizon

What have you done today to make you feel proud? (to make you feel proud)
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?
'Cause you could be so many people
Just make that break for freedom
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?

Para ti

Deixei este mesmo texto no teu blog como comment ao teu texto.

Para a minha menina especial...

Olá linda...eu sei quem é o destinatário de todos os posts mas sinceramente fico mesmo sem saber o que possa dizer. Fico perdido nos meus pensamentos mas sei bem o que tu tas a passar e no que tas a pensar. Nada em mim mudou, posso ter alterado um pouco a minha forma de estar, não digo que não...mas o eu que tu conheces é o mesmo de há uns meses atras...talvez um pouco mais maduro (não muito, eu sei). O que sinto por ti não muda...tento não mostrar para não me magoar mas sei que ao faze-lo te deixo mais triste...
Eu uma vez disse-te e acredito que compreendes...não quero NUNCA afastar-me de ti porque tens muito valor para mim e para a minha vida. És especial. Tão especial, que nunca tive alguém como tu, independentemente da volta que as nossas vidas levaram. Eu adoro-te mas não quero nunca magoar a pessoa que neste momento é das mais especiais (à minha maneira) para mim e disse-te uma vez que se alguma vez estivessemos juntos (namorados) que eu sei que olharia sempre para os homens (eu conheco-me) e não quero nunca fazer-te sofrer ou sofrer eu por fazer isso a ti.
ÉS UM TESOURO NA MINHA VIDA E NÃO QUERO NUNCA PERDER ESSA JOIA QUE TENHO NO MEU CORAÇÃO...
Um BEIJO especial para ti...

And the Oscar goes tooooooo...

Pois é...estamos a cerca de 2 semanas de mais uma cerimónia de entrega dos Oscars. Quem será o feliz contemplado este ano?
As apostas vão todas para o "The Aviator" realizado pelo sempre fabuloso Martin Scorcese. Depois temos o "Ray" o segundo mais nomeado.
Esperemos para ver...é já dia 27 de Fevereiro.
Até lá...façam as vossas apostas eheh.

Just 2 are missing weeks for one more edition of The Academy Awards Ceremony Live from the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood.
Who will be the lucky winner this year?
All the bets go to "The Aviator", directed by the always fabulous Martin Scorcese. Then we have "Ray" the second most nominated motion picture of the year.
Let's wait and see...on the 27th February.
Until then...make your bets eheh.

Carnaval 2005

A Turtle's Life

You have to pay atention to this...lolol

Poor Bird

Cuidado com o vosso amaciador de roupa...

So Good

Loving you is so hard to do
Preparation for something new
I'm gonna leave for an open door
Can't stay no more Can't stay no more
You should've heard by now
There's gonna be some changes
You've should've learned by now
You can't hold onto some faces

I don't know where I wanna be
I'm gonna face my insecurities
I don't need you to mother me no more
No more
I should have told you face to face
Leave now to the hand of fate
Nothing I can do but compensate but
It feels so good It feels so good

I can't breathe I can't sleep at night
I'm alone with the engine inside and it feels so good
It feels so good It feels so good

I'm on the outside looking in
My inner thoughts don't mean a thing
I don't face the suffering no more no more
I believe it's pill sent for me
I believe it's pill sent for me
I believe it's pill sent for me
Cause it feels so good It feels so good

I can't breathe I can't sleep at night
I'm alone with the engine inside and it feels so good
It feels so good It feels so good
(by Aloof)

Tenho a agradecer a todos os colegas bloggers e visitantes que já viram o meu blog. É uma coisa simples mas feita com gosto e divirto-me a faze-lo. É para mim, mas também é para vocês.

Here you have what I like, somethings about me and some fun stuff. Sorry that it's mostly in portuguese but that's my native language.

Je remercie à tous les bloggeurs et visitants. Cela á été ecrit d'une façon simple mais je m'ai amusé en le faisant. C'est pour moi mais aussi pour vous.

Vaselina

Vaseline and super glue
A little boy came down for breakfast one morning and asked his grandma, Where's Mom and dad?"
And she replied, "they're up in bed."
The little boy started to giggle and ate his breakfast and went out to play.

Then he came back in for lunch and asked his grandma "where's Mom and Dad?"
And she replied; "they're still up in bed."
Again the little boy started to giggle and he ate his lunch and went out to play.

Then the little boy came in for dinner and once again he asked his Grandma "where's Mom and dad?"
And his grandmother replied; "they're still up in bed."
The little boy started to laugh and his grandmother said;
"Every time I tell you they're still up in bed you start to laugh what is going on here?"

The little boy replied, "Well last night daddy came into my bedroom and asked me for the Vaseline and I gave him super glue."

Só mesmo em Portugal?

Afinal não é só em Portugal que há coisas absurdas...ora apreciem...

Anedota da Semana

O pai estava a ver televisão tranquilamente, quando o filho, que
brincava à sua frente, surge com uma pergunta:

- Pai, qual é a diferença entre POTENCIALMENTE e REALMENTE?

O pai pensa um pouco e responde:

- Filho, faz as seguintes perguntas e depois traz-me as respostas.

Primeiro, pergunta à tua mãe se por 1 milhão de dólares ela faria amor
com o Kevin Costner.
Depois, pergunta à tua irmã se por 1 milhão de dólares ela faria amor
com o Brad Pitt.
E, finalmente, pergunta ao teu irmão se por 1 milhão de dólares ele
faria amor com o Tom Cruise.
Quando me trouxeres as respostas, eu explico-te a diferença entre
potencialmente e realmente.
Horas depois, o filho voltou e descreveu ao pai as respostas de cada
um dos três:

- A mãe disse que nunca pensou em te trair, mas que por 1 milhão de
dólares, e com o Kevin Costner, ela não pensaria duas vezes. A mana
respondeu que seriam dois sonhos realizados de uma só vez. Dar uma
queca com o Brad Pitt e ainda por cima ficar milionária. E,
finalmente, meu irmão disse que por 1 milhão de dólares até fazia amor
com o PAULO PORTAS, quanto mais com o Tom Cruise!

Então o pai respondeu:

- Pois é isso, meu filho. POTENCIALMENTE, a nossa família tem
condições de ganhar 3 milhões de dólares.

Mas REALMENTE, vivemos com duas putas e um paneleiro!

hummmmmmmmm

Será um fantasma ou apenas o meu reflexo no espelho? lolol

A Indecisão

Muitas vezes, quando falo com amigos na net ou mesmo pessoalmente, um dos temas que vem à baila é a altura da indecisão. Quando somos confrontados com a dura realidade e surgem perguntas como "serei eu mesmo gay?", "não será apenas uma fase passageira?", "n será apenas uma confusão na minha cabeça?". Pois é...qualquer uma destas perguntas tem sempre uma resposta. Independentemente de qual seja, nunca deixamos de ser a pessoa que somos, seja qual for a escolha que é feita, se bem que muitas vezes e na minha opinião, não se trata de fazer escolhas mas é algo que está no nosso intimo, talvez escondido e surge na altura em que despertamos para a sexualidade (uns mais cedo que outros - confesso que comigo foi aos 18 anos).
O facto de sermos confrontados pela primeira vez com a ideia de sermos gays, não é mau, claro que existe aquele medo por causa das pessoas que nos rodeiam...o que poderão vir a pensar se descobrirem, se nos irão rejeitar...Tudo isso faz confusão no inicio mas o que conta, somos nós mesmo. A sociedade ainda não aprendeu a compreender os gays, não porque sejamos diferentes porque não somos, mas não conseguem aceitar o porquê de alguem gostar de outra pessoa do mesmo sexo. O que interessa mesmo somos nós...a nossa felicidade. Nunca devemos de moldar a nossa vida em função dos outros ou do que poderão vir a pensar. Claro que se as pessoas nos compreenderem, tudo correrá bem e não temos que ter problemas em pensar ou dizer "Eu sou Gay!"
Eu posso dizer com satisfação que tenho amigos/as que sabem e nem por isso deixaram de me dar o seu apoio, mas o mais importante que tudo, foi e é o apoio que o meu núcleo familiar me dá e isso sim deixa-me feliz porque tenho amigos e gente que me compreende dentro da minha própria casa...
Um beijo carinhoso a todos que me aturaram ao longo da vida e um agradecimento especial a todos aqueles que me aturam desde que "sai do armário".

Queer as Folk

A Série de maior polémica dos últimos anos chegou a estar anunciada durante um tempo na 2 mas creio que não foi além dos primeiros episódios. Resta aos fãs da série a compra dos DVD ou aos internautas interessados, cuscar a net em busca dos preciosos episódios.
Confesso que até há poucos dias a série não me dizia nada, apesar de já ter conhecimento da sua existência, tanto da versão britânica (a original) e depois pela mais famosa, a americana.
Quando tomei contacto pela primeira vez com a série, fiquei completamente agarrado ao pc. Nada descreve melhor a vida de um grupo de amigos homossexuais e lésbicas como eles. No fundo creio que nós também, meros espectadores vivemos com intensidade cada episódio porque acredito que algum de nós já tenham passado, ou irá passar por situações semelhantes às que são mostradas na série.
Com uma banda sonóra também excelente, cada episódio prende-nos do principio ao fim.
Acho que é um bom meio de aprendizagem para os pais que ainda não conseguem aceitar a ideia de que os filhos possam ser gays, e mesmo para aquelas pessoas que ainda vivem na dúvida e na incerteza de que realmente é aquilo que eles são.
Aconselho a quem possa ter a oportunidade de a ver, que a veja...acredito que vão gostar.
E com esta me despeço de mais uma crónica pelo mundo da blogsfera. Amanhã quem sabe, há mais ;)

Sand In My Shoes

PARA TI PEDRO --------> ADORO-TE!!!



Two weeks away it feels like the world should've changed
But I'm home now
And things still look the same
I think I'll leave it till tomorrow to unpack
Try to forget for one more night
That I'm back in my flat on the road
Where the cars never stop going through the night
To real life where I can't watch sunset
I don't have time
I don't have time

I've still got sand in my shoes
And I can't shake the thought of you
I should get on, forget you
But why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye
Anything else would've been confused but
I wanna see you again

Tomorrow's back to work and down to sanitation
Run a bath and then clear up the mess I made before I left here
Try to remind myself that I was happy here
Before I knew that I could get on a plane and fly away
From the road where the cars never stop going through the night
To a life where I can watch sunset
And take my time
Take all our time

I've still got sand in my shoes
And I can't shake the thought of you
I should get on, forget you
But why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye
Anything else would've been confused but
I wanna see you again

I wanna see you again
I wanna see you again
Two weeks away
All it takes to change and turn me around I follow
I walked away and never said that I wanted to see you again

I've still got sand in my shoes
And I can't shake the thought of you
I should get on, forget youBut why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye
Anything else would've been confused but
I wanna see you again

(I wanna see you again)
I've still got sand in my shoes
And I can't shake the thought of you
(I wanna see you again)
I should get on, forget you
But why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye
Anything else would've been confused but
I wanna see you again

I wanna see you again
I wanna see you again

MTV Europe Music Awards 2005

Adivinhem onde vai ser a edição deste ano... Lisboa!! Pois é verdade!!! Em Novembro o Pavilhão Atlântico vai receber tudo o que é personalidade da música que mais se notabilizou no ano que há pouco começou. E quem será o anfitrião da cerimónia? Stay in Touch...



"MTV Europe Music Awards... 2005!

With the memories of the 2004 MTV Europe Music Awards in Rome still fresh in our minds (as well as one unforgettable hangover), here comes news of next year's extravaganza.

The 2005 MTV Europe Music Awards will come to you live and direct from Lisbon.

MTV Networks Europe has revealed that it will hold the 12th annual MTV Europe Music Awards in Portugal for the first time on 3 November 2005. The venue for Europe's biggest music awards event is the prestigious Atlantic Pavilion, Lisbon, Portugal's premiere music venue, and home to major international music and sporting events. The announcement was made today by Brent Hansen, President & Chief Executive, MTV Networks Europe and Antonio Campo Dall'Orto, Managing Director, MTV South.
Commented Brent Hansen: 'We've had Lisbon in our sights as a potential venue for the Awards for a long time, and are delighted to make it a reality at last. The city's stunning architecture, rich heritage and vibrant music culture make an outstanding backdrop for the show, while in the Atlantic Pavilion we have a world class music venue that is perfectly attuned to the dramatic and technological demands of this global TV event.
We're extremely grateful to Carmona Rodrigues - the Mayor of Lisbon, Telmo Correia - the Portuguese Minister of Tourism, Jose Saldanha Bento - Chief Executive of ITP (the Portuguese National Tourist Board) and Pedro Pinto President of the Lisbon Tourist Office for their help in bringing the Awards to Portugal. We look forward to staging an unforgettable show in Lisbon on 3 November 2005!'

Added Antonio Campo Dall'Orto: 'MTV Portugal has been an MTV success story of MTV Europe since its launch in 2003. The music fans of MTV Portugal have made it the highest rating music television channel in Portugal, and we can think of no better way of thanking them than by bringing the MTV Europe Music Awards - Europe's biggest and best music event - to them on their home turf.'

Designed by influential Portuguese architect Regino Cruz, the Pavilion was created for the 1998 Lisbon World Expo. Situated on the banks of the river Tagus, the venue has played host to performances by artists including Madonna, REM and the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Commented Carmona Rodrigues, Mayor Of Lisbon, "We are delighted that the MTV Europe Music Awards, the biggest music event in Europe, will take place in Lisbon. This news will enhance Lisbon's reputation as an outstanding international location - one that is well suited to staging events of this scale. Lisbon is recognised around the world as a city that attracts leading events, and recent concerts including Madonna and Rock In Rio are proof that Lisbon is a excellent choice and valuable event partner."

Since its creation in 1994, the MTV Europe Music Awards has established a reputation as the most exciting music Award show in Europe - with a host of A-list stars, and an electric atmosphere where anything can - and does - happen. Highlights of the 2004 show in Rome included dazzling live performances by Eminem, Usher & Alicia Keys and Gwen Stefani. The roster of legendary artists who have performed at the show over the years includes U2, Madonna, Beyonce and Christina Aguilera.

The MTV Europe Music Awards is a music awards ceremony and live TV event that takes place in a different European city every year. The 2004 Awards were held in Rome, Italy, and previous locations have included the Berlin (1994), Paris (1995), London (1996), Rotterdam (1997), Milan (1998), Dublin (1999), Stockholm (2000), Frankfurt (2001), Barcelona (2002), Edinburgh (2003) and Rome (2004).
The event was conceived by MTV Networks Europe in 1994 as a celebration of European musical tastes, with Award categories voted for by music fans from around Europe. The Awards broadcasts to a potential audience of more than one billion people, and in 2004, more than 12 million young people voted for their favourite artists in 22 awards categories; winners included Outkast with 3 awards and Usher and UK act Muse with two awards apiece.

MTV, Europe's leading music television network, first launched a dedicated channel for Portuguese music fans in 2003. The channel is the number 1 music television channel in Portugal.




"Lisboa acolhe MTV Europe Music Awards 2005


O presidente da Câmara Municipal de Lisboa, Carmona Rodrigues, esteve presente na conferência de imprensa, no dia 7 de Dezembro, no Salão Nobre dos Paços do Concelho, onde foi anunciado que Lisboa será a cidade anfitriã da 12ª edição dos prémios MTV Europe Music Awards.

A capital portuguesa ganha, assim, a cidades como Paris e Copenhaga que, a par de Lisboa, se candidataram à recepção do mais importante evento de música da Europa. A cerimónia dos “Óscares da Música” terá lugar no Pavilhão Atlântico, no dia 3 de Novembro do próximo ano.

O anúncio da realização da entrega dos prémios europeus de música em Lisboa foi feito por Bret Hansen, presidente da MTV Networks Europe e por António Dall’Orto, director-geral da MTV para o Sul da Europa, e contou ainda com a presença de Telmo Correia, ministro do Turismo e de Pedro Pinto, presidente do Turismo de Lisboa

Para Carmona Rodrigues, receber este evento em Lisboa representa “uma forte promessa de mediatismo internacional para a capital portuguesa, já que o evento é um acontecimento de peso inquestionável para a animação cultural e artística da cidade, para a projecção da sua imagem e, consequentemente, para a captação de turistas”.

A organização dos MTV Europe Music Awards na cidade de Lisboa estava no imaginário da MTV Networks Europe há muito tempo e, segundo Bret Hansen, “é com muita alegria que o sonho se tornará em realidade”. O presidente da autarquia lisboeta, por sua vez, diz que esta foi “sem dúvida, uma grande vitória para a cidade”.

Os MTV Europe Music Awards são uma cerimónia de prémios de música que anualmente escolhe uma cidade europeia diferente. O evento será transmitido em directo a cerca de 119 milhões de lares em toda a MTV Europa e, a nível mundial, a uma audiência estimada em 1 bilião de pessoas."
