… ‘N Portugal: 
Vi por acidente este videoclip na SIC Radical (às 3 da manhã, quando passam aquelas músicas menos mainstream) e não resisti em metê-lo aqui. Portugal, I’m missing you!

E já agora, aqui fica a letra:
Ithaka – ‘N Portugal
Ithaka got love for Portugal
Cuz I lived a lot of years in Portugal
Cuz I got alotta bros in Portugal
Cuz I found my soul in Portugal
Ithaka ain’t from the old school,
Ithaka ain’t from the new
I came swimming into the picture
From the depths of the blue
With my fins dried out dragged myself to town
Still didn’t know it if I was lost, or if I was found
No job no friend no money not funny
Stepchild in Lisboa
With no milkshakes or honey
But I be gliding I be rolling
Treatin’ time like it be stolen
Take the whole story back to the year 1992
Cuz sometimes you gotta do WHATCHA GOTTA DO*
Time for me to ESCAPE FROM THE CITY* of devils
It was the riddle of life that I was trying to unravel
I had to get out of there
While there was going to get
I was flat broke… In Portugal
Ate alot of caldo verde… In Portugal
Drank alot of Super Bock…..in Portugal
Smoked alot of ganza in…Portugal
I was flat broke… In Portugal
Ate alot of caldo verde… In Portugal
Drank alot of Super Bock…..in Portugal
Smoked alot of ganza in…Portugal
I LOOK TO THE BLUE*
‘Cuz I’m THE BUM WITH BLUE BLOOD*
BEEN FOUR long YEARS*
Since I made KETCHUP LOVE*
Pretty Little, Pretty Little
pretty pretty STELLAFLY*
Won’t you please baby please
be my SUBSTANCE-FREE EXHILE*
But she said:
No! It’s time for you to roam
So catch the SUSHI-PACK SUBWAY*
Get yourself on home
I walk the street with no STREET LOYALTY*
‘Cuz I be from the sea, I be the FISHDADDY*
In my SPIRITUAL GRAVEYARD*, there I was stuck
Wasn’t easy like I thought to just, SO GET UP*
THE RISE AND FALL OF A FORTUNE*
That was the next PLOT*
SUNNY THE BUNNY* split with my money
But he never got caught
ERASE THE SLATE OF HATE,
ERASE THE SLATE OF HATE*
With some FLOWERS AND THE COLOR OF PAINT*
There’s a lot of sugar dolls… In Portugal
And I made a lot of love … In Portugal
But I didn’t make babies… In Portugal
‘Cuz I always wore a glove… In Portugal
There’s a lot of sugar dolls… In Portugal
And I made a lot of love … In Portugal
But I didn’t make babies… In Portugal
‘Cuz I always wore a glove… In Portugal
BUTTERFLY OF WISDOM*
said, STAY STRONG LITTLE BROTHER*
AIN’T NO BREEZE*,
so STONEMOBILE* on down
To the ALABAMA CAVE PARTY*
KING TARDY’s* UMBILIBUS* arrived at two
With the ESCAPE FROM THE CITY OF ANGEL* crew
Then it was URSULA of ITHAKA*,
CAPRICORN and CANCER*
And SEABRA IS MAD*
from SOMEWHERE SOUTH OF GIBRALTAR*
Later, met PIGEON LADY*
at EDEN BY THE SEA*
She’s a SLEEPDRIVER*
But she makes GOOD COOKIES*…
Oatmeal chocolate chip cookies
Now I’m speeding through the decades
Like they was red lights
Keeping a lead on the loanshark
That lent me the good life
I’m out there living mine all the time,
Cuz rhymes don’t grow in the garden
Portugal, I’m missing you
You was down with me
and I’m down with you
Portugal, I’m missing you
You’re a part of me
and I’m a part of you
Peace and love… In Portugal
The sky’s still blue… In Portugal
Reefs and points… In Portugal
Scored the barrel of my life… In Portugal
Scribed a lot of rhymes… In Portugal
Made a demo… In Portugal
Cut two albums… In Portugal
Yes, life was good… In Portugal
Portugal, I’m missing you
You was down with me
and I’m down with you
Portugal, I’m missing you
You’re a part of me
and I’m a part of you

Opá lindo! Sabes o que é que este tipo me fez lembrar? Do famoso Sandro G, o nosso filho de imigrantes Açoreanos que viveu e cresceu no Bronx e que teve o grande êxito musical aqui à cerca de uns 4/5 anos intitulado “Galinha”. Aqui fica o link do video para quem quizer relembrar este grande hit dos tops Portugueses e Americanos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMCaz1b7A4s

@Gabi: Realmente por vezes fico surpreendido com alcance que este pequeno espaço tem! Vejo nas estatísticas que há MUITAS mais pessoas a lerem-me do que a comentarem e é sempre agradável quando recebo algum feedback. Obrigado!
@Renatowski: Se sempre combinares uma jantarada com o João em Lx avisa. Lá estarei!
