It is worth remembering how the song, present on the studio album CARLOS, Erasmo (1971), was composed by the singer in partnership with ROBERTO CARLOSwhile the production was Manoel Barenbein and Erasmus. The film, released on November 7, 2024, was directed by Walter Salles and has names like FERNANDA TORRES, Fernanda Montenegro, Valentina Herszage, Selton Mello, Olivia Torres, Barbara Luz, Luiza Kosovski and MAEVE JINKINGS in the cast.
In a press release, the label Universal Music Brasil He reported that, on Instagram, more than 160,000 publications were made with the music. Even in this same social network, the track reached 4 million views (before the movie, it was about 200 thousand). The largest daily peak was 120 thousand reproductions.
In a press statement, Paulo Limapresident of Universal Music Brasiltalked about the newest success of “You need to find a way, my friend” after appearing on the soundtrack of I’m still here. “It is an authorial and existential ballad that consolidates the album as a classic of MPB“said.” Erasmo was one of the pioneers of rock in a difficult time for Brazil, and he showed all his versatility in this work, bringing songs of Caetano Veloso, Jorge Ben Jor and Taiguarawhich are relevant to this day. “
Already Leonardo Estevesson of Erasmo Carlos And businessman, celebrated the highlight of the song: “It is a great pleasure to talk about my father’s legacy. He always said he wanted to be remembered for the songs, and I think this moment is now very emblematic, because he is conquering the world, Literally, with a song that was not even part of his most played and is now being rediscovered through digital platforms. “
“This more interesting and incense side of it, which is the disc CARLOS, Erasmoand the song ‘You need to find a way, my friend,’ along with the song ‘Open people‘exemplify this a lot, “continued.”Erasmus He had a great satisfaction with this side where he spoke existential issues of humanity and the great questions he had. “
I believe that the music will gain even more prominent with these three nominations of the film to Oscar. I, as a mere emissary of my father’s legacy, get emotional imagining him applauding in the audience, with a popcorn in his hand, and thinking, ‘I arrived far away, and the trip was so long…’
