Eu Ligo Pra Você

The story behind

Engenheiros do Hawaii released in 1986 an album called Longe Demais Das Capitais. The song Eu Ligo Pra Você lasts 3 minutes and 37 seconds. It is a piece that is listened to with a certain nostalgia, as if it were thinking about someone who is not nearby. The lyrics talk about a phone call, about a connection that cannot be made in person. The band plays with an energy that reminds one of the early years of their career, when they were not yet famous but already had a clear voice. The song moves between the personal and the universal, as if each person had written it for someone specific. It is a moment in Brazilian music that feels authentic, without pretensions, but with a touch of truth.
