"Tudo Que Você Podia Ser" is a Brazilian MPB song with Portuguese lyrics, credited to Lô Borges and Márcio Borges as composers. Milton Nascimento recorded it in November 1971 at Piratininga Beach in Niterói and at the Odeon Studios in Rio de Janeiro. The song opens the double album Clube da Esquina, released in March 1972 by EMI-Odeon and credited to Milton Nascimento and Lô Borges. On the recording, Lô Borges opens the track on nylon-string guitar, and Milton Nascimento sings it.
The album was first criticised as poor and disposable, but it sold well and was later reappraised, and it appears in 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die (2010). Later versions include those by Quarteto em Cy (1972), Simone (1973), Lô Borges (1979), Azymuth (1996), Roberta Sá (2008) and Seu Jorge (2009), as well as instrumental versions by Anat Cohen and André Mehmari.
