Pessoal, esta canção fiz com Paulo Lepetit pra gente torcer pela publicação das delações, que há quem esteja interessado em esconder.

SABATINA EM LATIM PARA A INDICAÇÃO DE UM JUIZ DO SUPREMO (Tom Zé e Paulo Lepetit)

Temer, temer, o que é um juiz, temer?
Temer, temer, vosmicê é quem diz, temer.
Quosque tandem Catilina 
Catilina abutere 
Patientia nostra
Qui tollis peccata mundi
Panem et circenses 
Quod abundat nocet 
A fortiori Pater dimitte illis
Rábula  rabulae rábula

HOMOLOGÔ – MARCHA DO BLOCO (Tom Zé

A primeira ideia foi de Tom Cavalcante: “você tem de fazer uma marchinha pro Carnaval de 2017”. Meu dentista, Eduardo Mangini, assertivo: “tem de ter ‘homologou’.
Daniel Maia: arranjo/vocal; Jarbas Mariz e Tom Zé: vocal. 

Homologou, logô,
Homologô
Mas querem transformar a Lava-Jato em Lava-Rato.
Homologou, logo,
Homologô,
E o País nesse teatro pisa num rabo-de-gato.
            É de se ver,
            Bota a mão daqui, bota a mão dali,
            Pobre nação!
            Não dá pra crer
            Bota a mão daqui, bota a mão dali,
           Quanto ladrão!
Essa turma só
Só se botar
No xilindró. Óóóóóóh...

SAMBA DA COMISSÃO DE LINGUIÇA
(Tom Zé e Paulo Lepetit)
A gravação foi uma festa. Além de nós, cantando e tocando, estavam no estúdio: Juliana Perdigão (que voz!) e Os Amanticidas (quatro cabras da peste que tocaram e cantaram).
O governo programou que a Comissão receba o candidato ao STF na próxima 3ª. feira.
A letra é esta, vocês podem ouvir o samba clicando no link abaixo.

Essa comissão
Vai fazer linguiça,
Enquanto o Senado aprende colado do lado.
Oh, Supremo, eu ainda tremo,
Ameaçado por todo esse mundo obsceno, obsceno.
Consummatum est,
Tempo de peste,
Nesta terça-feira
Quando o precipício tá na beira.
Oh, Eterno, tira a gente deste inferno:
Miserere nobis
Neste urbi et orbi.
Ah, ah, a priori,
Ab irato,
Ab irato que eu nunca vi tanto rato

Samba Da Comissão De Linguiça

In 2007 John Beadle, a Milwaukee-based musicologist and owner of the much loved Likembe blog, uploaded a cassette he had been handed twenty years earlier by a Somalian student. The post was titled ‘Mystery Somali Funk’ and it was, in Samy’s own words, “some of the deepest funk ever recorded.” The cassette seemed to credit these dense, sonorous tunes to the legendary Iftin Band. But initial contact with Iftin’s lead singer suggested that the ‘mystery funk’ may have actually been the work of their chief rival, Dur-Dur, a young band from the 80s. 

Back then, Mogadishu had been a very different place. 
On the bustling Via Roma, people from all corners of society would gather at the Bar Novecento and Cafe Cappucino Nero, watch movies at the famous Supercinema, and eat at the numerous pasta hang-outs. 
The same street was also home to Iftinphone and Shankarphone, two of the city’s best known music shop. Located opposite each other, they were the centre of Somalia’s burgeoning cassette distribution network. Both shops, run by members of the legendary Iftin Band, would become first-hand witnesses to the meteoric rise of Dur-Dur, a rise that climaxed in April of 1987 with the release of Volume 2, their second album. 

The first single ‘Diinleya’ had taken Somalian airwaves by storm in a way rarely seen before or since. The next single, ‘Dab,’ had an even greater impact, and the two hits had turned them into the hottest band in town. 
The secrets to Dur-Dur’s rapid success is inextricably linked to the vision of Isse Dahir, founder and keyboard player of the band. Isse´s plan was to locate some of the most forward-thinking musicians of Mogadishu´s buzzing scene and lure them into Dur-Dur. Ujeeri, the band’s mercurial bass player was recruited from Somali Jazz and drummer extraordinaire Handal previously played in Bakaka Band. These two formed the backbone of Dur-Dur and would become one of Somalia’s most extraordinary rhythm sections. 

Isse also added Ahmed Dahir Qassin as a permanent sound engineer, a first in Somalia and one of the reasons that Dur-Dur became known as the best-sounding band in the country.

On their first two albums, Volume 1 and Volume 2, three different singers traded lead-vocal duties back and forth. Shimaali, formerly of Bakaka Band, handled the Daantho songs, a Somalian rhythm from the northern part of the country that bears a striking resemblance to reggae; Sahra Dawo, a young female singer, had been recruited from Somalia’s national orchestra, the Waaberi Band. Their third singer, the legendary Baastow, whose nickname came from the italian word ‘pasta’ due to the spaghetti-like shape of his body, had also been a vocalist with the Waaberi Band, and had been brought into Dur-Dur due to his deep knowledge of traditional Somali music
Yet from the very beginning, Dur-Dur’s doctrine was the fusion of traditional Somali music with whatever rhythms would make people dance: Funk, Reggae, Soul, Disco and New Wave were mixed effortlessly with Banaadiri beats, Daantho and spiritual Saar music. The concoction was explosive and when they stormed the Mogadishu music scene in 1986 with their very first hit single, ‘Yabaal,’ featuring vocals from Sahra Dawo, it was clear that a new meteorite had crash-landed in Somalia. As Abdulahi Ahmed, author of Somali Folk Dances explains: “Yabaal is a traditional song, but the way it was played and recorded was like nothing else we had heard before, it was new to us.” ‘Yabaal’ was one of the songs that resurfaced on the Likembe blog, and it became the symbolic starting point of this project.
