Silence Becomes It is the debut album by Portuguese band Silence 4, released in June 1998.[1] It was a huge success in Portugal, reaching a six-time platinum certification (240,000 units sold),[1][2] but didn't have the international success that some critics and fans predicted.

The album contains 15 songs, including a hidden track, and two versions of "A Little Respect" by Erasure.[3] Most of the songs are in English, with only two in Portuguese: "Sextos Sentidos", a duet with Sérgio Godinho, and "Eu Não Sei Dizer". The songs deal with themes of love, pain, melancholy, loss, death, sorrow, loneliness and nostalgia - themes that are recurrent in Silence 4 and David Fonseca's solo career discography. Both "Borrow" and "My Friends" were highly successful singles in Portugal.
