We can not be held responsible for beatings… Reintroducing: Michel Teló feat. Becky G – Ai Se Eu Te Pego (UK Mix)

Mention this particular track to any European citizen at the moment and you’ll probably end up getting a slap in the face. As early as March this year we predicted big things for Brazilian star Michel Teló. Having scored one of the biggest hits of the year world wide, the Brazilian heart throb is now heading to the UK with his reworked anthem ‘Ai Se Eu Te Pego’ (If I Get You) where he’s joined by female rapper Becky G, hoping to get us all crazy enough to sing along. It worked in the whole world so, surely the UK will follow, right? Well, we’ll see, as we found out there is a version available with Pitbull too, sung partial in Portuguese and English but we don’t recommend you search for it. (Big No No) Thank God we didn’t have that one as the radio edit. Anyhow.

Personally, we prefer the original, so this reworked version doesn’t really do it for us but it will be interesting to see whether the UK will follow in the footsteps of of Europe in embracing this catchy sing along summer tune. We let you decide what you make of this one, but do check out the original when you have the time.

‘Ai Se Eu Te Pego’  is out September 9.

One To Watch: Gusttavo Lima – Balada

2012 is shaping up to be a huge year for Brazil. A few months ago we’ve already mentioned Michel Teló who’s currently scoring a massive hit with ‘Ai Se Eu Te Pego’ worldwide. (For the review check here).

Following in his footsteps is 23 year old Brazilian singer Gusttavo Lima, who’s single ‘Balada’ is slowly starting to appear in several charts worldwide, so we wouldn’t be surprised if he does a Teló. The singer rose to fame in 2010 when he signed with Brazilian record company Som Livre and has since released 3 albums, of which two live, and 7 singles including ‘Balada’.

It’s a busy time for the young singer. Since January 2012, he embarked on a first international tour with shows in US Latin markets in Florida, and later on in Atlanta (Georgia), Newark (New Jersey) and and Revere (Massachusetts).

Expect a fun, joyful, latin song which we personally find a tad better than the offering made by Michel Teló. The intro is a very poppy 90ies riddle which lasts about 10 seconds before it bursts into its latin feel good rythm. Perhaps a tad more difficult to sing along, although the ‘che che re reche che che re reche che che’ bits help the song massively stand out.

Enjoy the song

No details yet on a UK release but we’ll follow it up and let you know as soon as we hear more.

Saturday Euro-Glance!

Lets have a look at whats happening in Europe at the moment in terms of number ones.

And funny enough we came across this song by Brazilian Michel Telo called ‘Ai se eu te pego!’ it’s currently a number 1 in Brazil, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, Poland, Italy, France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Suriname, Turkey and many other countries.

It almost feels like summer again. Get those shorts out, put the barbee on,  go wild with the sun creme. Oh yeah! It’s incredibly catchy too, even though I don’t understand a word Portuguese. What do you think of the song? Get involved!!!
