FADO is a very emotional, melancholy, nostalgic and kind Portuguese folk-song, which make tears or cry even you don't understand portuguese language. People get amazed when discover themselves FADO music.
On the other hand you have FADO VADIO or DESGARRADA (kind of live contest between two singers with some joy and competition) and FADO DE COIMBRA (love songs and broken hearts by students).
