Whisky A Go-Go Lyrics in English Roupa Nova
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Whisky A Go-Go by Roupa Nova from Portuguese to English.
Foi numa festa, gelo e cuba-libre
It was at a party, ice and Cuba Libre
E na vitrola whisky a go-go
And on the record player, whisky a go-go
À meia luz o som do Johnny Rivers
In the dim light, the sound of Johnny Rivers
Aquele tempo que você sonhou
That time you dreamed of
Senti na pele a tua energia
I felt your energy on my skin
Quando peguei de leve a tua mão
When I gently took your hand
A noite inteira passa num segundo
The whole night passes in a second
O tempo voa mais do que a canção
Time flies more than the song
Quase no fim da festa
Almost at the end of the party
Num beijo, então, você se rendeu
With a kiss, then, you surrendered
Na minha fantasia
In my fantasy
O mundo era você e eu
The world was you and I
Eu perguntava 'do you wanna dance?'
I asked "do you wanna dance?"
E te abraçava 'do you wanna dance?'
And I hugged you "do you wanna dance?"
Lembrar você
Remembering you
Um sonho a mais não faz mal
One more dream doesn't hurt
Eu perguntava 'do you wanna dance?'
I asked "do you wanna dance?"
E te abraçava 'do you wanna dance?'
And I hugged you "do you wanna dance?"
Lembrar você
Remembering you
Um sonho a mais não faz mal
One more dream doesn't hurt
Foi numa festa, gelo e cuba-libre
It was at a party, ice and Cuba Libre
E na vitrola whisky a go-go
And on the record player, whisky a go-go
À meia luz o som do Johnny Rivers
In the dim light, the sound of Johnny Rivers
Aquele tempo que você sonhou
That time you dreamed of
Senti na pele a tua energia
I felt your energy on my skin
Quando peguei de leve a tua mão
When I gently took your hand
A noite inteira passa num segundo
The whole night passes in a second
O tempo voa mais do que a canção
Time flies more than the song
Quase no fim da festa
Almost at the end of the party
Num beijo, então, você se rendeu
With a kiss, then, you surrendered
Na minha fantasia
In my fantasy
O mundo era você e eu
The world was you and I
Eu perguntava 'do you wanna dance?'
I asked "do you wanna dance?"
E te abraçava 'do you wanna dance?'
And I hugged you "do you wanna dance?"
Lembrar você
Remembering you
Um sonho a mais não faz mal
One more dream doesn't hurt
Eu perguntava 'do you wanna dance?'
I asked "do you wanna dance?"
E te abraçava 'do you wanna dance?'
And I hugged you "do you wanna dance?"
Lembrar você
Remembering you
Um sonho a mais não faz mal
One more dream doesn't hurt
Hei, hei, hei hei hei
Hey, hey, hey hey hey
Hei, hei, hei hei hei
Hey, hey, hey hey hey
Hei, hei, ho, ho, hei, hei, ho, hei, ho
Hey, hey, ho, ho, hey, hey, ho, hey, ho
Eu perguntava 'do you wanna dance?'
I asked "do you wanna dance?"
E te abraçava 'do you wanna dance?'
And I hugged you "do you wanna dance?"
Lembrar você
Remembering you
Um sonho a mais não faz mal
One more dream doesn't hurt
Eu perguntava 'do you wanna dance?'
I asked "do you wanna dance?"
E te abraçava 'do you wanna dance?'
And I hugged you "do you wanna dance?"
Lembrar você
Remembering you
Um sonho a mais não faz mal
One more dream doesn't hurt
Lembrar você
Remembering you
Um sonho a mais não faz mal
One more dream doesn't hurt
Lembrar você
Remembering you
Um sonho a mais não faz mal
One more dream doesn't hurt

Did you like this lyrics translation?
vitrola — jukebox / record player
Vitrola refers to a record player or, more broadly, a jukebox. It's a charmingly retro word that evokes a specific era and musical culture.
In "Whisky a Go-Go," the word sets the scene for a nostalgic party, with the lyrics mentioning "E na vitrola whisky a go-go" (And on the record player, whisky a go-go). It immediately transports the listener to a time when music was played on these devices, making it a unique and evocative choice for this song.
