^^ Wow, that's terrible.

Is "Lambada" the only song in Portuguese to have topped the charts in English speaking countries? It's the only one I can think of.

I used to love to see The Allman Brothers when they'd tour the stadiums (long time ago).

I was never a fan of the band but they are/were one of the most important bands of the early Metal era...
