[Edit]

This album had a complicated history because it was recorded quickly due to the precarious health of Renato Russo, who died a month after this recording. Sad and melancholic, it sold 500,000 copies right after Russo's demise, with the group selling five million copies in their 12 years of existence. They recorded 36 songs for this album, originally intended to be double. But several songs remained unpublished, including "A Tempestade," vetoed by Renato himself because was much too depressed, talking about suicide — this describes the last love affair's end, with a guy called Cristiano. "Clarice," another of the unpublished songs, talks about a 14-year-old girl who attempts suicide. The album had the hits "Leila" (a good-humored revision of "Eduardo E Mônica"), "L'Avventura," the melancholic "A Via Láctea" ("essa febre que não passa/this fever that doesn't end"), "Dezesseis" (another adolescent account like "Faroeste Caboclo"), and "Aloha" (revision of "Geração Coca-Cola" after one decade).
