Senhor F

The story behind

Os Mutantes recorded Senhor F in the heart of their debut album, a disc that defines their sound: British rock mixed with the energy of tropicalism. The song has a light rhythm, as if it were moving to the beat of a party on the beach. The lyrics speak of a man who gets lost in time, searching for something that is no longer there. The lead vocals carry the song, while the instruments intertwine as if they were talking. The duration is short, barely two and a half minutes, but in that space one feels the intensity of a band that wants to say something with every note. The 2006 reissue gave it a new touch, but the original spirit remains intact. Today, more than 90 thousand people listen to Senhor F on Last.fm, and every time it plays, it's as if the song were still alive.
