Curiosities
* The disc's eighth track, "Canção pra Você Viver Mais," is dedicated to Fernanda's father, who suffered from a serious illness. Takai had already written the title without being able to compose a letter to her father. John, upon learning this, wrote the music and presented it to Fernanda, who thanked Ulhoa for managing to externalize what she felt to be losing.
