Ti Ti Ti (song)
"Ti Ti Ti" (Brazilian Portuguese slang for "Chit-Chatter") is a single by Brazilian synthpop band Metrô, released in 1985 by Epic Records. Written by Rita Lee (one of Metrô's major influences) alongside her long-time partner Roberto de Carvalho, the song was originally featured on the band's debut album Olhar, but would acquire higher fame after being included in the soundtrack of the eponymous telenovela broadcast by Rede Globo from 1985 to 1986, serving as its opening theme.[1] A music video for it was made in the same year.[2]
