Background notes
Archive material and source history
Distração formed in the late 1980s with members Marcelo Faria, Julio Cesar, Ricardo Silveira, and Rafael Maffra. Their debut album came out in 1989, and the track "Amor de Menina" became a national hit in Brazil. The song's straightforward pop melody and lyrics about young love connected with listeners.
They followed up with albums like "Retratos" in 1991 and "Sem Limites" in 1994. Another song, "Me Faz Acreditar no Amor," also found an audience during this period. Some critics at the time felt their sound was predictable, but the band kept recording and performing.
After taking a break in the mid-1990s, Distração reunited for a 2008 concert marking twenty years since "Amor de Menina." The response to that show led them to resume working together.
