UPA united to help

Written by 

It is an unusual collection. Unlikely duets to help people with mental illness. Support the movement.

It is a call to combat discrimination against people with mental illness. His album is the work of Find + it an association that supports people with mental disorder, to celebrate its first year of existence. It is a project under the name of UPA, United To Help, which compiled during this period of time, thirteen films that address the topic of psychic diseases, 13 posters and 10 songs with the intention to raise funds for this non-profit private institution. All this effort has emerged as a work of great music quality. Some of this album contained duets that are really unexpected and result all too well. The opening theme of Jorge Palma and Manuela Azevedo, of the clan, could not be the better cards for this purpose. It is an "invitation" to music played by two unforgettable voices. The theme "Someone heard me," Boss AC and Mariza describes the longings, the anguish, suffering and isolation of people with mental problems due to the prejudices of a society that does not understand them, that not even accepted as full citizen. It is an emotional song, exciting and with a very strong message. "Listen well," James Bettencourt and the Cool Hipnoise is an appeal for tolerance and understanding. It is giving a hand, because there is no journey without return. "He is not" is the musical participation of the unusual double, JP Simões and Rodrigo Leão. The result is superb. It's the other side of the mirror, which looks for that someone they love, and do not understand it, which denies these reasons, the pain. Bipolar, Rui Reininho and Mesa, is the motto for the world in which we live in. One that is changing, a schizophrenic society that sometimes make sense, other days not so much. The rest of the songs contained in this collection I leave to your discretion, I highlight just a few, not because the remaining work might be smaller, but because I do not want to uncover everything, listen and enjoy the videos contained in this common project. At the end of this text I leave the link, support this cause.
