Google Translate Festival.  I wrote this is english and used google translate to Portuguese and "sang" it. 
I found this to be very difficult.  I have a little ability to speak and understand the language, like maybe like a toddler ( a little more but not much).  I ended up cutting out a 1/3 of this as it was just too cluttered.

Come in here my darling so I can groove you.
Venha aqui minha querida para que eu possa te enlouquecer.


You are going to groove when the groove master comes into the room. He will get you.  The groove is going to get you.
Você vai dançar quando o groove master entrar na sala. Ele vai te pegar. O groove vai te pegar.

The groove master - indeed you are!  Brave to go for Portuguese - but it's convincing enough for me.  So inventive.

O mestre do groove you are Stephen. Portuguese has a lot of tongue twisting words for us English speakers, but you seem to handle those well. The intro piano notes and bass are groovin' and hypnotic. The fuzz lead guitar adds a new dimension to the sound, in a good way. You are one creative fellow, Stephen!

Your guitar work reminds me of Stephen Stills at times during this tune. Cool.

I'm still dancing to this, and now i truly know what Zappa meant with his "Dancin' Fool" song. I just hope i'll manage to stop before i start breaking things!

I'm already recovering from a nearly fatal spider attack... And to add insult to injury i managed to trip on a beanbag chair that was always there, but clearly my reflexes weren't.

Very nice beat, and the melody is so captivating.
The electric guitar speaks loudly, beautiful!!!
This is a hip and lovely clutter, I am enjoying this tremendously.
This is a trip, a journey of joy and groove.
Well done!!!

Very challenging to sing in foreign languages, Stephen and you have taken on the challenge well. Musically very Zappa and psychedelic and your creative juices are overflowing as always.

This does groove and the vocals seem to fit really well and go with the mood too. Kudos for having a go at the fest and doing it well.

Just curious about the spider attack? I hope you are ok man!

This piece is very effective, and unnerving.

Is "Tongues" one of the options in Google Translate – because that's what this sounds like – with the spooky, chaotic, distorted, overlapping vocal effects after the first verse. You play guitar exceptionally well while handling snakes!

You are one fearless Songcrafter!

Thanks for the concern! I'm fine. All the spiders found in Finland are tame, and although i've had all kinds of strange pets (including Orchid Mantis) i'm not particularly into insects :)

I took some artistic liberties with the story. In fact i was actually saving the spider from being squashed (by my wife). I had the spider inside my hands and was going to throw it from the open door, but while doing so my left bicep caught the door handle and i got a mighty cool bruise for my troubles!

The next day i managed to trip on the beanbag chair and for that i got a mighty cool cut on my right forearm. So i got stereo cuts & bruises! :)
