The band's first music video, "Não Quero Saber", released in 2010, was an advertise for a party. The song was a tecnobrega version of "Teenage Dream". With this video, they gained popularity on the internet and in the next year they released their first EP, Me Emoldurei De Presente Pra Te Ter, which featured the song "Shake de Amor", that would become a hit. "Shake de Amor", also a tecnobrega version of an American song ("Whip My Hair"), won the MTV Video Music Brasil award for "Best Web Music Video".
They signed with the indie record label Deckdisc and released their first studio album, Motel, on September 4th, 2012. The original songs were written by the Mel, Sabbag and Carrilho and produced by the latter and Bonde do Rolê, with additional production by Mumdance and Diplo. The album received positive reviews by Brazilian and international media and was the top selling album in Brazil in its release day. Four singles were released from the album: "Faz Uó", "Gringo" (2012), "Cowboy" (2013) and "Búzios do Coração" (2014).
Banda Uó toured through Brazil and had a concert special at the TV channel Multishow. The concert was later released as their first live album, Turnê Motel - Ao Vivo no Cine Joia, in November 2014. Their second studio album, Veneno (2015), was preceded by the single "É da Rádio?".
Não Quero Saber
Banda Uó Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
É o eletrobrega a sensação
Baaanbanda uó
Já é outubro, chove lá fora
Eu, antes de tudo
Te ligando a cobrar
E não tem jeito
Você
Eu só sei
Quero você
Bem pertinho de mim
Já tentei, não quero mais
Chorar por outra pessoa
Eu não sei o que vou fazer
Pra que eu possa te esquecer
O amor já morreu
Não quero saber
Não quero saber
Ai que dor
O meu coração desmanchou
Eu não sei mais amar
Foi você
Que me traiu
Não quero saber
Não quero saber
É o eletrobrega sensação
Aah huu é sensação, sensação
Sensação, sensação
Ai, ai que uó
Já é outubro, chove lá fora
Eu, antes de tudo
Te ligo a cobrar
The lyrics to Banda Uó's song "Não Quero Saber" speak about heartbreak and the difficulty of moving on after a relationship has ended. The singer is still longing for their former lover, even though they know their love is dead and they've been betrayed. In the opening lines, "ai que uó" is an expression of frustration or disappointment, and it's followed by the phrase "é o eletrobrega a sensação," which refers to the genre of music Banda Uó plays: a fusion of electronic music and regional Brazilian styles like brega and funk.
The song takes place in October, when it's raining outside and the singer is feeling the weight of their emotions. They admit to calling their ex-lover even though they can't afford it ("te ligando a cobrar"), and everything around them reminds them of what they've lost. They repeat the chorus several times, saying that they only want their ex-lover close to them and that they don't want to cry over anyone else. However, they also acknowledge that they don't know what to do to forget their past love, and that their heart is broken ("ai que dor").
The second verse reveals that the singer believes they were betrayed by their ex-lover, which is likely the cause of the breakup. They say that they don't want to know anything more about what happened ("não quero saber"), and that they're feeling lost and unable to love again. The song ends with another repetition of the chorus, the phrase "é o eletrobrega sensação," and the words "te ligo a cobrar" once again.
Overall, "Não Quero Saber" is a melancholic song that captures the pain of heartbreak and the difficulty of moving on. Despite the upbeat music, the lyrics are tinged with sadness and longing, and they reveal a deep emotional attachment that the singer is struggling to let go of.
