A song on As Quatro Estações, released in October 1989, the band's best-selling record, with Renato Russo's vocal over Dado Villa-Lobos's clean, chorused guitar. The arrangement builds from a soft verse into a fuller chorus, with a bright, open guitar tone throughout. No source available here confirms the exact guitar and amp on this recording, so a semi-hollow guitar through a Roland JC-120 with chorus and delay stands in.
