History
The group was formed in late 1981 under the name Kid Abelha & Os Abóboras Selvagens (Kid Bee and the Wild Pumpkins), with the current members and Leoni. In 1982 they recorded a demotape with the track Distração (Distraction), which achieved excellent airplay on Brazilian radios, and debuted on the compilation album Rock Voador (Flying Rock), together with other new Brazilian rock bands.
In 1984 the band released their first album, Seu Espião (Your Spy), including among others the classics Pintura Íntima (Intimate Painting), Fixação (Attachment) and Como Eu Quero (The way I want). This LP attained the first gold record of the new generation of Brazilian artists.
In 1985, the band performed live at the first Rock in Rio, an experience described by the band as an "admission exam" into business. At the same concert, Leoni's departure was also announced.
In 2016, Kid Abelha officially announced they were disbanding. Their official website at http://www.kidabelha.com.br is no longer updated.

El Beso
Kid Abelha Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mis ojos están cerrados.
Lengua, saliva y dientes,
Mis labios están abiertos.
Ahora mis ojos se abren,
Mis ojos se mojan.
Lengua, saliva y dientes,
Mis ojos están cerrados.
Mis labios están abiertos.
Ahora mis ojos se abren,
Mis ojos se mojan.
Ahora tus ojos se abren,
Tus ohos me miran.
El ojo mira y besa,
El dedo toca y besa,
La nariz respira y besa,
La boca come y besa,
El sexo goza y besa,
El oído oye y besa.
Lengua, saliva y dientes,
Mis ojos están cerrados.
Lengua, saliva y dientes,
Mis labios están abiertos.
Ahora mis ojos se abren,
Mis ojos se mojan.
Ahora tus ojos se abren,
Tus ohos me miran.
El ojo mira y besa,
El dedo toca y besa,
La nariz respira y besa,
La boca come y besa,
El sexo goza y besa,
El oído oye y besa
The lyrics to Kid Abelha's song "El beso" (The Kiss) describe the physical sensations and emotional experience of a passionate kiss. The singer describes the feeling of their tongue, saliva, and teeth as they close their eyes and open their lips. The repetition of these words emphasizes the raw physicality of the moment. The singer then describes their eyes opening and getting wet, which suggests a sense of vulnerability and emotional intensity.
The second half of the song expands on the idea that a kiss involves all of the senses and the whole body. The singer lists various body parts and their respective actions during a kiss: the eye looks and kisses, the finger touches and kisses, the nose breathes and kisses, the mouth eats and kisses, the sex enjoys and kisses, and the ear hears and kisses. This reinforces the idea that a kiss is not just a physical act, but an all-encompassing experience that involves the entire person.
Overall, the lyrics to "El beso" celebrate the intensity and complexity of a passionate kiss, capturing both the physical sensations and emotional depth of the moment.
