So, a performance that I enjoyed watching was the last concert I attended. I was there with my friend; we bought tickets to see an artist that we really like. His name is Salvador Sobral; he is a Portuguese singer and is well known because he won the Eurovision Music Contest. I don't remember the year, but he was the only Portuguese artist to do it, I think. The show was very nice because he is a very open person and knows a lot of languages. The concert included Portuguese songs, Spanish songs because he has lived in Spain for quite some time, and Catalan songs since he lives in Barcelona and knows Catalan. He also sang a song in French and another in Arabic to address the issues surrounding Palestine. Well, the conflicts that we have all been witnessing in the news lately. It was very powerful, and I feel like that part of the concert is why I enjoyed it so much. He wasn't afraid to be political and to use his voice to express something that is very important to him. I share that opinion, so it is significant for me. Also, because he used so many languages, I felt like I was somehow in another country, which is very refreshing for me. I saw it in Lisbon with my friend Mariana, as I mentioned. I really enjoyed it. I had been working all day and had to go to Lisbon to see this. I don't live in Lisbon, and I thought I would be very tired. But somehow, it was so refreshing, and it was amazing. I was mesmerized by his voice and all the artists he brought with him because he had a whole band from all over the world.
