Cristina

The song Cristina, which is part of the album Meio Desligado by Kid Abelha, stands out for its particular atmosphere, one that invites introspection. While the album itself represented a moment of renewal for the band, attracting a new audience and achieving significant sales, Cristina fits into this context with a sonic proposal that moves away from the more festive. The piece, with a duration of 3 minutes and 46 seconds, is nourished by the songwriting collaboration of Carlos Imperial and Tim Maia, adding a layer of influences to Kid Abelha's proposal.

This work, originally released in 1994, was the band's first acoustic album, which was previously known as Kid Abelha e os Abóboras Selvagens. The album had a considerable commercial impact, reaching 600,000 copies sold and earning a double platinum record. Within this project, various musical facets were explored, including reinterpretations with an almost mystical touch like Deus (Apareça na Televisão), and romantic versions supported by acoustic guitar and piano, such as those of Alice (Não Me Escreva Aquela Carta de Amor), Seu Espião, Porque Não Eu?, and Gosto de Ser Cruel. Cristina adds to this repertoire, contributing its own sonic identity to the whole.
