I want this song called Apanhei-Te cavaquinhoe. I think it was called Blame it on the samba as well. It's a brazilian song in origin I think but no-one knows what it is, or how I can get it. I like it even though it was way before my time.

I did find this link of it played on youtube

  1. This music is instrumental only. There is no lyric. It is not a samba but a "Choro" or "Chorinho" and the author is Ernesto Nazareth. I find out a good site to explain this kind of music to you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chorinho. Unfortunately the explanation is short. THe good explanation is available in the portuguese page http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chorinho.

    This kind of music was created more than 130 years ago and unfortunately nowadays only one musician create new chorinho songs (ALtamiro Carrilho) and he is already old guy. I really love chorinho but I cannot remember any other person younger than 60-year-old that also enjoy it (I am 32-year-old). Ah... Apanhei-te Cavaquinho was created on 1914.

    If you need more information just send me an email (I have some CDs with a lot of good chorinhos).
