as for his brother, he is not only older, but went really deep in drugs, lives in a very cute cotage in the mountains of my city and... TA DA... released a CD. Guess what? Genious. So really... if you dont like it ok... but blaming on age... is too naive of something to say. Cheers!

Cmon, Stinky, you did not explain this whole thing, so I might get whatever my interpretation is. It is just taht it is so obvious to say "they are boring when they get old". We'll all get old. Depends on how old are you, in the first place. I am not old. But old enough to get the difference already. Cheers!

I don't mean to sound stupid (as my wife says, it's in my nature) but what does "Bat Macumba" translate to in English. This is one of my favorite songs, and my 5 year old asked me what it was about the other day. I stood there looking pretty dumb....

"Macumba" is a an ... ( 10 months ago by BandaSamuelSilva)
"Macumba" is a an Afro-Brazilian religion involving syncretistic elements, mainly practiced by black people in urban centers, or it can just be the name of the witchcraft these people practice xD "Bat" is not a word, it's just a sound, but it saounds like the word that means "beat", so it's something like "Beat Macumba" or "Beat Witchcraft" and yeah, it doens't make any sense =P, so you can tell your son it doens't mean nothing XD

There is also the "Batman" element to it. Batmobile, Bat-phone, Bat-macumba... you get it. They actually say "Batman" at one point in the song and they even play a "Batman theme" tease in the middle.

"macumba" is almost identical to "voodoo" thing.

And just completing what Samuel said: "bat" sounds like "bate" that means "the act of beating": 'ele bate' = 'he beats' that's what he mean to said. It's all a play with words and meanings.
The Mutantes ... ( 7 months ago by ConserveCompassion)
The Mutantes recorded this song during the Tropicalia, an artistic movement that sought to integrate and recycle elements of pop media, mass media, erudition industrialization as well as primitive, folklore elements. So this is BAT (as in BatMAN) and Macumba (a voodoo). So it will much more powerful than a voodoo if it is a BAT VOODOO. The rest of the lyrics fuse similar imageries (Beatles, comic books, African Gods, etc). This is cut and paste way be4 computers were a staple of modern societ

And "bat" ("beat") is how the military dictators treated the Brazilian people between 1964 and +- 1985. The sound of "bat", that turns it into the "beat" meaning, means what the militaries did: to beat, to torture, to kill opponents: the people.
