  1. Ranked No. 3 in Tropicália

    A murder ballad set at a funfair, arranged by Rogério Duprat with capoeira berimbau and an orchestra. The most formally ambitious three minutes in Brazilian pop.

  2. Picked by Dancing to Bad News

    A funfair, a berimbau, an orchestra, and a man killing his friend and the woman between them. Gil sets a murder ballad to the most inviting three minutes in Brazilian pop, and Duprat's arrangement never once lets on.
