Great song, but one note. Not produced by David Byrne. He did put it on a compilation record he assembled with some of his favorite Brazilian songs, but he did not produce this song.

Thanks for posting, though!

Thanks Luakabopper for posting this grooving hypnotic Brazilo-rock song, with sensual harmonies and vocals and icy, almost new wave keyboards.

I loved Beliza Tropicale - Various Artists. What a way to get you feet wet with Brasilian Music. Ending with "Terra" by Caetano Veloso is a high note. Opening it with this one is another.

first saw this in the 80's at an animation festival at the Coolidge Corner theatre in Brookline Ma, it took up residence in my head and never left. glad to have found it again.
