The Very Best of Chris Rea is a 2001 compilation album by Chris Rea. The last track was originally written and recorded in 1994 as a tribute to the formula 1 racing driver Ayrton Senna who died in a crash at Imola on May 1 that year. "Saudade" is a Portuguese word that roughly means the feeling, emotions and euphoria of a certain moment in time.
