Praised by critics and musicians, the album is more pop than his previous ones. Among the successes are the first four tracks: "Se..." (one of his biggest hits in the 1990s), "Boa Noite"," "A Rota do Indíviduo" (later called "Ferrugem," after his partnership with Orlando Morais), and "Linha do Equador" (recorded by Caetano Veloso in the future).[2]
