Totonho is from Paraiba, in the Northwest mountainous area of Brazil, considered by some to be "hillbilly" country. It's no wonder that Totonho's best friend is a mountain goat, as manifested in his music video and on his recording Totonho e os Cabra.
But far from being a silly video, this is a cutting-edge animation, that backs up lyrics filled with a whimsical saudade, the elusive sense of regret and longing that is the national characteristic of Brazil. Courtesy Calabash Music
