Video 24. Triste Bahia by Caetano Veloso (1972) Source. Inspired by (or more likely: actually is) capoeira music. Video 25. Mora na Filosofia by Caetano Veloso (1972) Source.
Video 26. Você Não Entende Nada by Caetano Veloso (1970) Source. Amazing performance at Coliseu dos Recreios, Lisbon. 1981. Discogs says original album is Legal (1970), but wiki page and photos of back disagree... Video 27. Partido Alto by Caetano Veloso (1972) Source. Atheism song (Theodicy)!

- 1975 Qualquer coisa album
Video 28. Qualquer Coisa by Caetano Veloso (1975) Source. Video 29. Samba e Amor by Caetano Veloso (1975) Source. Cover from original song by Chico Buarque, original album Chico Buarque de Hollanda - Nº4. Desperately reminds Ciro of his University day weekend nights. Except that there was no Samba. And little Amor. Mostly a silent and wholesome loneliness and emulation. Video 30. Georde de Capadócia by Caetano Veloso (1975) Source. Composed by Jorge Ben, but this interpretation is remarkable. corpo fechado-style song. This idea is much linked to Capoeira/African religion idea. E.g. a more traditional capoeira corpo fechado song: www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfd9j6XFmSg Video 31. Coricos' prayer scene from Black God, White Devil (1964) Source. This shows an Amazing corpo fechado scene from an Amazing old Brazilian film. - 1976 Doces Bárbaros (1976) album

Video 33. Tigresa by Caetano Veloso (1977) Source. Talks about a strong willed, unapologetic, disenchanted, but also hopeful brown skinned lover: a tigress. Ciro once knew one, but it wasn't meant to be.
- 1978 album Muito (Dentro da Estrela Azulada)
Video 34. Sampa by Caetano Veloso (1978) Source. "Sampa" is an affectionate slang for São Paulo City. The song perfectly captures the city, and reminds Ciro so badly of his University days there.[D]a força da grana que ergue e destroi coisas belas
The power of money that builds and destroy beautiful thingsVideo 35. Terra by Caetano Veloso (1978) Source. "Terra" means Earth in Portuguese.Ciro used to watch a television nature show called "Planeta Terra" in the legendary TV Cultura with his parents in the couch when he was young, and under a duvet when it was a bit cold. Those days were the best. The narrator's lady voice was particularly soothing, and would easily put you in a kind of sleepy trance, her name is Valéria GrilloTODO what was the original show exactly? Here is a sample: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNwfYEMdrRU Very likely just a translation of some British nature show with a custom Brazilian intro and presenter. Credits at end mention English narrator: "Eugene Fraser", and "Thirteen WNET Nature" production, which produced Nature (1982) that ran since 1982, making that a likely candidate. - 1980
Video 36. Menino do Rio by Caetano Veloso (1980) Source. Apparently served as inspiration for the Menino do Rio (1980) movie, which is silly, but a worthwhile record of the times. - 1984 Velô (1984)
Video 37. O Quereres by Caetano Veloso (1984) Source. Notable quote from the chorus that is often in Ciro's mind: Ah, bruta flor, do querer
translation:Oh, brute flower of the wanting
