Bem simples

The song *Bem simples* has a duration of 2:48 and is an example of the long career of Roupa Nova. This Brazilian band, with over three decades of experience, has managed to maintain a constant presence in their country's music scene, with original members who remain active and a schedule of performances that tours all of Brazil. Since their beginnings in the 80s with songs like *Canção de Verão*, they have managed to place their songs on both radio and soap operas, cultivating a loyal audience that renews itself over time.

The discography of Roupa Nova is considerable, totaling 22 studio albums on CD and 5 on DVD, with sales exceeding five million units. Their connection with the Brazilian public is strengthened through the inclusion of their songs in the soundtracks of numerous soap operas. Songs like *Dona* (in *Roque Santeiro*), *Coração Pirata* (in *Rainha da Sucata*), *Começo, meio e fim* (in *Felicidade*), and *Whisky a Go Go* (in *Um sonho a mais*) have become part of the popular imagination and are frequently requested at their concerts. Faced with changes in the music industry in the early 2000s, the band took the initiative to create their own label, Roupa Nova Music, to manage and distribute their work. An important milestone in their career was in 2004 with the release of *RoupAcústico*, which achieved significant sales and received important music industry awards. In 2009, they fulfilled a dream by recording at the iconic Abbey Road studio in London, a project that earned them a Latin Grammy award.
