00:00José Pinal had a career on Portugal's dance circuit music scene in the 1980s
00:06and died in a car accident in 1993, in near anonymity.
00:11About 20 years later, he became a viral phenomenon
00:15after his songs were posted on YouTube.
00:18The story of this posthumous fame made it into the pages of the British newspaper The Guardian
00:23and inspired a documentary.
00:27José Pinal, post-mortem experience.
00:30The tribute band formed to honor the singer has now bid farewell to the stage after 10 years
00:36with a concert at the venue where Pinal once dreamed of singing,
00:40the Coliseo dos Recreios in Lisbon.
00:45My first reaction when I heard the music of José Pinal was, in first place,
00:53that is something unique, in a certain way.
00:56Apesar of being something that I live within a context,
00:59the context of romantic music, the music of jazz,
01:02the music of jazz is something unique.
01:16The band started as a joke in 2016, meant to perform for just one night, yet ten years have gone
01:31by.
01:32The members, all from the alternative music scene, have other projects they want to pursue.
01:37The message of José Pinal, of whom is José Pinal and the work he is,
01:42that he is given, was made this work.
01:46And, above all, this is what we need to do,
01:50a band of this calibre requires a total dedication.
02:16The band is closing this chapter, but José Pinal's music is kept alive by a legion of fans.
02:23Seem mich nós!
02:26Siu nós!
02:27Siu nós!
02:28Siu nós!
