Tem Mais Acabou
''Tem Mas Acabou'' is the third studio album of the Brazilian rock band Pato Fu. ''Tem Mas Acabou'' tries to change the pop sound that gave them their hit "Sobre o Tempo". The hit "Pinga" tries to establish a Brazilian atmosphere through the lyrics, even if the instrumental backing is a blend of rock and reggae. Incidental radio noise introduces a peculiar piece with Brazilian imagery (the small portable radios used by humble people to listen soccer games). "O Peso das Coisas" and "Porque te Vas" (an Attaque 77 cover) also have hit potential—the first with its tender melodic line, delivered with simplicity by Fernanda Takai, and the latter is a version for the theme song to Carlos Saura's film ''Cría cuervos''. The group, formed by light-hearted youngsters with no professional approach to music and much humor, has made a well-produced album. This one was produced by André Abujamra (from Karnak), who supplies the needed resources. Track listing All songs written by John Ulhoa, ...
