I have never been to Brazil nor have I ever seen the movie.

Cansei De Ser Sexy - Poney Honey Money

I'm not sure what's going on in this song. I like it. The simplicity. The filtered twangy twinge. The contrast between this track as a closer for the Brazilian release and the dance-party-friendlier "This Month, Day 10" that closes the International release. Here is a word that had a similar effect and reaction when I looked it up:
