The story behind
Por que não eu, according to DoReSol
The song *Porque não eu?* by Kid Abelha, with a duration of 3:03, is presented in an interpretation that invites a more intimate atmosphere, marked by the presence of the violin and piano. This version, included in the album Meio desligado, is one of the romantic reinterpretations that the band offered in this work, alongside tracks such as Alice (Não Me Escreva Aquela Carta de Amor) and Seu Espião. The album, released in 1994 by Warner Music, represented a moment of renewal for the band's audience, who were previously known as Kid Abelha e Os Abóboras Selvagens.
Meio desligado was Kid Abelha's first acoustic work and achieved significant sales, surpassing 600 thousand copies and earning a double platinum disc. This success made it the group's best-selling album up to that point. Within this context, the band explored sonorities that included a particular take on Deus (Apareça na Televisão), in addition to the aforementioned romantic versions. The main lineup at this stage consisted of Paula Toller, George Israel, and Bruno Fortunato.
