[edit] Trivia

  • In the Espacial version, the album cover is different[1].
  • The music video version of the reggae song "Amor Em Prova" differs in comparison with the CD version. In the video version, there is not background vocals and the trumpet plays a little less.
  • The song "If I Had The Key", from the album Olhos Verdes, is a reprise. This new version is also included in Amy Rome's 1995 album Angel as "Key To Your Heart".
