An interesting merengue from a Cape Verdean legend, Luis Morais. The song alludes to an earlier relationship between music of the French Antilles and Cape Verde given the French Creole title which shares the same name with a song from Remy Mondey. Because of the popularity of zouk in Cape Verde, and zouk's origins in Haitian compas, which itself has links to Dominican merengue, one can see roots and routes going all directions in the music of the Black Atlantic.
