Background notes
Archive material and source history
Idelmar Castro came from São Luís do Quitunde, a small town in Brazil. He started playing music in Recife's underground scene in the early 1990s, and his first album was called 'A Música do Povo.'
His 1997 album 'Cada Verso' gave him his most recognizable song, which shares the album's title. Other tracks like 'Coisas do Coração' and 'Pagando o Preço' also became part of his catalog. His writing sometimes drew from Brazilian poets like Castro Alves and Carlos Drummond de Andrade.
In 2003, there were plagiarism accusations around his song 'Por Que É Que Você Não Olha Pra Mim,' though the charges didn't stick. Later, in 2010, he made some public comments criticizing how the Brazilian government was handling social issues.
