On their first album, O Terço was not yet full on prog, but it is a seminal work in the history Brazilian progressive music. There are obvious influences of the Moody Blues, and Pink Floyd. "O Terço II" would see them moving from Psychedelic to heavier sounds, along the lines of King Crimson and Led Zeppelin. It was 1975's "Criaturas Da Noite" that became a monumental success. It was a big hit, gave Brazil its first classic prog album, and solidified O Terço's place in music history.
In the '80s, the band began to tour the United States and Europe. This would make them more popular in other parts of the world, than they were at home.
They continued to release albums into the late '90s. Many times trying to experiment with different styles. A possible reformation of the classic "Criaturas Da Noite" lineup was in the works in 2001/2002, but an unexpected death of their drummer postponed the idea to 2005, when they made a couple of live presentations, only in Brazil.
O Terço's musicians were widely successful in other Brazilian groups, chiefly 14 Bis, which had a softer and less progressive sound.
Foi Quando Eu Vi Aquela Lua Passar
O Terço Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nunca me lembrei a que horas.
Eu vi aquela lua passar
Eu vi aquela lua passar
Sei que só esperava um toque
Sei que só esperava um toque
Eu vi aquela lua passar
Eu vi aquela lua passar.
Pela janela, na neblina
Cruzando a estrada rumo ao sul
E eu percebi que há muito tempo
Eu já estava por lá
Já estava por lá.
The lyrics of "Foi Quando Eu Vi Aquela Lua Passar" talk about a moment of reflection and introspection. The singer says that they don't remember what time it was when they saw the moon pass by. They were waiting for something, perhaps some kind of inspiration, and the sight of the moon reminded them of how long they had been waiting for it. The moon becomes a kind of symbol of hope and creativity, something that can bring light into the darkness.
The lyrics also mention the setting of the moon, and how it appears in the fog outside the window, crossing the road to the south. This creates a sense of mystery and melancholy, as if the singer is watching something beautiful and unattainable slip away. At the same time, there is a feeling of nostalgia, as the singer realizes that they have been in this place for a long time, waiting for something that has yet to arrive.
Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of longing and uncertainty, but also a glimmer of hope that things might change. The moon, as a symbol of creativity and inspiration, represents the potential for a brighter future, even in the midst of darkness.

Nunca me lembrei a que horas
I never remembered at what time
Eu vi aquela lua passar
I saw that moon passing by
Sei que só esperava um toque
I know that I was only waiting for a touch
Eu vi aquela lua passar
I saw that moon passing by
Pela janela, na neblina
Through the window, amid the fog
Cruzando a estrada rumo ao sul
Crossing the road towards the south
E eu percebi que há muito tempo
And I realized that a long time ago
Eu já estava por lá
I was already there
