- about
- The FINGERTIPS are one of the most popular Portuguese bands at present. They launched their debut album in 2003 and achieved first place on radio airplay for the single ´Melancholic Ballad´. This was followed up with two more releases (2006 & 2007) which saw the band repeating their success with top radio airplay once again.
The band has a loyal fan base and has supported the likes of Nelly Furtado, Queen, George Michael, The Corrs, etc..
In 2010 the band set a new course and went in search of a new vocalist. Out of hundreds of candidates Joana Gomes was chosen to be the new voice of the band.
With the arrival of Joana the band finalised a few ideas they had been working on in the studio and launched the single ´Simple Words´
SIMPLE WORDS is the first recording by The Fingertips with Joana Gomes as the new vocalist making her mark with a new intense and melodic sound for the band.
The song is co written by songwriters/producers Rui Saraiva and Helder Matos who were the foundation of the previous works by the band. They are joined by the arrival of Virgilio Fino the new lyricist who was born in London but has Portuguese roots.
SIMPLE WORDS is a ballad with Joana´s sweet sensual vocal tones complimenting a melodic piano melody. The guitar solo brings back memories of past decades and cuts through the overwhelmingly delicate chorus passionately.
It is a song for all people who feel a swirl of emotions in life and one to be listened to again and again.

- I'd like to show you my world
For you to see how I feel
And I hope that someday
Oh you understand, yes you understand
To change your point of view
Walk a mile in my shoes
And what will you do when it's over?
So I hope that one day
You'll meet me half way
With simple words... we say
Our pain could be gone
I'm waiting... debating
Tryin' ta find a way to get things through to you
So come on won't you understand
I'm waiting... debating
Keep tryin' ta find a way for us both to agree.. yeah
The one thing we can't deny
Is that life has no guarantees
Help me to dry your eyes
With simple words... we say
Our pain could be gone
With simple words our pain could be gone - credits
