O Brasil é, desde sempre, ingrato com seus artistas! Eumir Deodato é um músico genial para todo o mundo, e um quase desconhecido (e ainda estou sempre generoso!) pelos brasileiros!
Le idee sue hanno venduto piu' di 25 milioni di dischi solo negli stati uniti, é "solamente un genio della musica patrimonio dell'umanità" niente di piu'...
Eumir Deodato is great! That was what happened when some of the talented Brazilian guys moved to EUA in search of the best black music of that time. Both countries are very similar in termos of musical roots, both are highly influenced by black music, I would say that Brazil, EUA and Cuba are the countries that took the maximum results from their black musical backgrounds. It's about time to promoting such fusion of international music like people did in the 70-es.
BEYOND AWESOME! I bought the 45 of this back around 1973. It was phenomenal then and it's still phenomenal now. Nice video here, too. But I have a question for anyone out there who's scientifically minded. How come whenever we see films and videos taken out in space by satellites or the shuttle, there are never any stars or other celestial bodies visible? It's just total blackness. Yet even from the ground we can see hundreds of stars. Makes me think sometimes that it's all fake (lol)!
@JohnnyS001 that's because of the brightness of object in the foreground (space shuttle, earth) they reflect the sunshine very heavily so the camera won't register the dim light of distant stars due to the contrast effect
@unbornanddeathless Interesting. Thanks for your reply. I kind of wish NASA would release some actual, undoctored photographs taken the other way, though, instead of always having the cameras aimed at the Earth. I'd like to see what's out there.
Still wonderful, I bought this single 1972 in Stockholm. The other day I just felt like listening to it. It took me 45 minutes to find this version because of the fact that I could not remember Mr. Deodato's name. Shame on me! Here it is, with a stunning space- video to make everything evan more interesting! I have been sending this video out to all my friends and they just love it! Thank you one more time for letting us know what a wonderful musician and composer you really are! Love~Maria.
thanks ever so much for posting this. i've been trying to remember for YEARS now who did this version, and simply trying to remember this version in and of itself. phenomenal music! you made my day!!!! ;-D
Be careful listening to this song if you are driving a car, especially if the car can go fast. Just trust me on this. Pretty soon you'll find yourself doing 90+ miles per hour and wondering "How the hell did I get doing this fast." This is an amazing work of musical art. Muchisimo gracias, Maestro!
Anyone knows the version of this with some kind of lyrics ? A guy's voice, pretty much familiar, that narrattes something about the universe, the man, etc. ?

I live a Block West of the Boathouse from Kenosha Harbor. Ghetto ,racy, biker neighborhood, BUT, I live in the single-story extension of a 2-story parish house landlocked from St. Elizabeth. MY SLiding Glass door faces NORTH into 10 acre parking lot and there's no one above/below ME! My Stereo is jacked to my INternet PC You Tube and I FLY ALL NIGHT!!!!! I use and ONKYO 6-channell Receiver & 3 PAirs of Old Rock Monitors. Can't miss much with this set-up.
Indeed. The connection to jazz fusion, however, is apparently by way of Hubert Laws, the great jazz and classical flutist, not John McLaughlin. Deodato and Laws collaborated during the Zarathustra period (early 70s).
Aha! It wasn't accepting my reply 'cause I had Toyokit's channel address. You'd think the people at YouTube would at least give you a message explaining the policy instead of just clamming up. Thx for being so thoughtful, YT.
Thank you. But the credit is due to Toyokit, who crafted the outstanding video. The reason I mirror it on my channel is because I don't want to lose it. I've had the unpleasant experience, several times now, of having a favorite vid removed by the owner. Don't want to chance losing this gem.
On his talk show, radio's Mark Christopher was talking about the music scene in 1973. He said that the quality of music was down that year. In other words, a lot of the songs were wimpy. Agree or disagree? Feel free to reply. By the way, being a wrestling fan, I will always associate this with Ric Flair. He used this as his entrance music.
Don't remember too well the quality of music in 1973 exactly, but I do think music in the 70s and 80s tended to be better than most of the stuff we have now. At least Deodato helped out with this song in 1973.
True. Before MTV really took off, singers and bands had to toil for it all. And they probably got cheated out of the night's gate, too. There was no pre-packaged nonsense like American Idol. I mean, the USA is in pretty bad shape when more people vote for the next Idol instead of voting in November.

Then I turned around and visited everybody I met on the way out.
Played my flute, sax, and fiddle in local bands the whole way.
