Carmen Miranda performs at incredible speed "Tico-Tico no Fubá" (Tico-Tico, Brazilian bird, on Corn Flour), the famous composition by Brazilian composer Zequinha de Abreu, in the film "Copacabana" of 1947 whose title refers to a New York nightclub where the plot takes place. The original version was given camera cuts to show actors commenting on her performance. In this edition, such intrusions were eliminated. Carmen does the routine practically all on her own. Members of Bando da Lua present within the orchestra were given no special evidence.

Carmen Miranda apresenta com velocidade incrível "Tico-Tico no Fubá", a famosa composição de Zequinha de Abreu, no filme "Copacabana", de 1947, cujo título se refere a um nightclub novaiorquino onde a trama se desenrola. A versão original recebeu cortes de câmera para mostrar atores comentando sua apresentação. Nesta edição, as intromissões foram cortadas. Carmen faz tudo praticamente sozinha. Nenhum destaque a integrantes do Bando da Lua, que estão na orquestra, foi dado pelos produtores do filme.

  • Isn't this the song bugs bunny sang?

  • No, it isn't. In the episode "Slick Hare" (1946) Bugs Bunny dances along a song that actually Carmen herself never performed, was written especially for that cartoon and sung by an unknown singer.

  • @DoniSacramento

    Right you are. You know what I think confused me? The percussion at the end of Tico Tico is very much like the percussion in "Slick Hare", where Bugs dances onstage to get away from Fudd.

    Thanks for the up!

  • Don't worry. Many other people also get confused just like you say. Best wishes from Brazil.

  • Para triunfar en Hollywood tenía que ser creativa, especial. Se merece toda nuestra admiración.

  • Esto és en todo una verdad. Gracias por tu comentário. Saludos desde Brasil para ti.
