Faltando um Pedaço

The side-B opener of Seduzir, a hit for Gal Costa in 1980.
Djavan, from Seduzir (1981)

Djavan wrote it. It opens side B at 4:49, and a 1980 promotional disc was already named after it, with "Meu Bem Querer", "Nereci" and "Lambada da Serpente" on side A and "Seduzir" and "A Ilha" on side B. Gal Costa's recording together with "Açaí" became among the most played songs in Brazil, and Altamont calls it a poem about the beginning of love. Djavan paid tribute to Gal Costa in a show in Greater Florianópolis. Our upload is titled Faltando um Pedaço | Seduzir, which may be a medley or a combined title, and we cannot say which version it is. We found no account of the song's origin in Djavan's own words, no chart positions, video or covers beyond Gal's.
