"Evidências" is a song written by José Augusto and Paulo Sérgio Valle in 1989 and made famous by Chitãozinho & Xororó on their album Cowboy do Asfalto in 1990, becoming the greatest hit on the radio in that year and receiving significant airplay the year after.
It's one of the duo's signature songs, being popular in their concerts to date and being covered by numerous other artists. It is used in some internet memes and is considered the most popular song in Brazilian karaokes.
History
The song was composed by José Augusto and Paulo Sérgio Valle. It was first recorded in May 1989 by Leonardo Sullivan, who released it in June of that year in his album Veneno, Mel e Sabor This recording was only regionally released and failed to gain national success.
José Augusto had already collaborated with Chitãozinho e Xororó when he offered them the song "Página Virada", from the album Os Meninos do Brasil (1989). In 1990, he sent them a cassette tape with some new songs, including "Evidências" and a Portuguese language version of "Bridge over Troubled Water", originally by American duo Simon & Garfunkel. Chitãozinho e Xororó recall having appreciated the song so much that it was the first song they showed to conductor and arranger Julinho Teixeira when entering the studio to commence work on their then upcoming new album.
Recepção e crítica
Critic Tárik de Souza, in a negative review of Cowboy do Asfalto, referred to the song when he said that "the essence of the content is pop ballads" and also said that the song "conserves sertanejo only in the duo'smariachi vocal tremolo".
Hardcore punk band Ratos de Porão's vocalist João Gordo once hailed the song as one of his favorites ever, highlighting the vocal arrangements of the duo.
