History and sentiment behind song

Camungerê is a Brazilian greeting word - often used as capoeira greeting song especially when teachers or students of one group enter the roda of another. This song reminds us that capoeira is supposed to be fun. Sometimes we do what we do in capoeira because it feels good. Teasing and playfulness are important aspects in the art. The fast difficult intro to the solo is a common demonstration of musical prowess.
