Title: Sad day in my country, and I believe, in a lot of places Post by: Mirta on 04-Oct-09, 10:02:01 AM Today the most wonderful singer of Argentina has dead. :(
Mercedes Sosa had an amazing voice. She started as a folcklore singer, but then she began to sing different kinds of songs, mostly from latinoamerican authors, and even soft rock themes. All my country love her. I believe most of the people in the world who love music, know and love her too. She was a voice of freedom during dark days of violence and dictatorship in my country You tube is full of her videos, this is only one, perhaps her most loved song: Gracias a la Vida http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0d_h5CZPyjQ&feature=related Mirta Title: Re: Sad day in my country, and I believe, in a lot of places Post by: Kris G. on 04-Oct-09, 11:52:48 AM Today the most wonderful singer of Argentina has dead. :( Mercedes Sosa had an amazing voice.

It is a gift when someone can have this talent.

Mercedes Sosa does indeed have a beautiful voice. I am so sorry for her passing. It is wonderful though that you have a lot of recordings and history of her. My condolences to you and your country. :rose: :rose: Lola Title: Re: Sad day in my country, and I believe, in a lot of places Post by: Patti from Kentucky on 05-Oct-09, 12:02:04 AM Today the most wonderful singer of Argentina has dead. :( Mercedes Sosa had an amazing voice.
