In Henrique Cazes's words, Gotas d'Água

was the release that projected Simone's deep and warm voice nationally, and it calls attention to the number of top names involved in this production. From Mílton Nascimento and Hermínio Bello de Carvalho's executive production to Luiz Eça's, Magro's and Wagner Tiso's arrangements, this is a heavy release.

The repertoire was carefully chosen and arranged. From the haunting vocals in the title track, with the addition of Milton Nascimento's vocals, to the last number in the album, Gotas d'Água is truly a gem. In the soft, romantic ballads such as "Disfarce" and "Matriz ou Filial," Simone captivates the listeners. Whether more relaxed, as in "Samba pro João Gilberto," or more vibrant as in "Idolatrada," Simone shows good control and performance.
