[edit]

Sergio Reis are not highly influenced by American country and pop music. This is not true at all. He sings that is the most brazilian music appreciated in Brazil.It is true that Brazilian likes contry music, or, at least, this is appreciated by many people and have influenced the modern sertanejo music, but Sergio Reis belongs to the more ancient sertanejo that is completely ori- ginated in the brazilian sertoes (Minas Gerais, Goias, Sao Paulo - little tows and rural regions of the State - and Mato Grosso do Sul). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.104.247.2 (talk) 17:49, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

This sounds suspiciously nationalistic, and it's at odds with the source cited, which notes "As an urban teenager, Sérgio Reis promoted a peculiar fusion of rootsy "caipira" (hillbilly) music with the influences of Elvis Presley, Paul Anka, and Neil Sedaka." I've restored the previous wording. Chubbles (talk) 14:03, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
