Editorial Review:

Amazon.com's Best of 2000:
Brazilian superstar Monte's fifth album is arguably her most daring yet, as she makes her art-pop leanings more explicit than ever. Memories is also her most beautiful and sensual disc; while it doesn't easily fit a radio format, it nevertheless begs the question of why Monte isn't better known in the States. --Rickey Wright
Amazon.com Music Reviews:
Marisa Monte, one of the strongest voices of Brazilian popular music, has one of the sweetest and most seductive voices you'll ever hear. But since the early 1990s, she's kept close ties with the downtown New York scene, connecting with people like David Byrne, guitarist Marc Ribot (who guests here), and producer Arto Lindsay, who's behind the board again for this record of romantic songs. Unlike some past outings, there are no unusual covers this time, just self-penned material and pieces by Jorge Ben, Carlinhos Brown, and other native talents. Monte manages to inject a wistfulness even into an outright love song like 'Amor,' and the despair of memory is never far below the surface throughout. Ranging from utterly acoustic to gently electric, Monte doesn't try to rock your world, but lets her voice slip into the bloodstream and the heart on songs like 'Tema de Amor.' If only all pop music were as good as this.... --Chris Nickson
