Ti\u00e3ozinho is one of Mocidade&#8217;s greatest living composers, having written a number of songs, including three that have lead Mocidade to victory at Carnaval such as <cite>Ziriguidum 2001<\/cite> (1985), <cite>Vira virou, a Mocidade chegou<\/cite> (1990), and <cite>Chu\u00ea chu\u00e1, as \u00e1guas v\u00e3o rolar<\/cite> (1991). Feefee and Mestre Fred got speaking with him and discovered that he had written a samba for Sambatuc, a samba school in Paris, France, and he said that he would love to write a samba for us one day.
