Yam (Ocean) - The third single

Yam (Ocean)Anyone loving Elisete's songs can travel in them to great distances of emotion and imagination. In 'Yam', The third single from her third acoustic album, Elisete takes her listeners to a voyage in a sea of yearning and longing - an imaginary sea and yet a very real one. It is the sea that lies to the shores of Israel but also to the enchanted sea of the shores of Rio de Janeiro and Bahia. Beyond that sea awaits the lover - distant, misterious, half real, half fictious.
The melody joins hands with the lyrics and sails us on the waves from Israel to the far away places filled with the south American scents.
Oceam continues the line of romantic and lyric songs that characterises a great part of the album. The sounds let us feel Israel but also sense the lyric feeling of Brazil in the simplicity of the words and emotions of the songs.
