you could count the flowers here
we've got no time for drinkin’ beer
we took a walk around this afternoon
and a year had gone away

you're all that I've got
this planet's small enough for two
take whatever you want
I won't forget to remember I know you

you're all that I've got
this town ain't good enough for you
take whatever you want
I won't forget to remember I know you

When I heard the song and saw these lyrics, it reminded me of my time in Rio de Janeiro.
I've been there several times. It's an awesome city, but it also has its downsides.
I saw many favelas. Favelas are constructed from a variety of materials, ranging from bricks to garbage.
Many favelas are very close and very cramped. They are plagued by sewage, crime and hygiene problems.
But it also looks very impressive. In a sad way I might wanna say... it's beautifull.

The name 'favela' originates from a plant with thorny leaves.
The text 'Palavras Repetidas' means repeated words, and it stands for the different families that live in those little houses in the favela.
Nobody does something about the situation, so the words linger on - like a pattern, like the favela.

does the guitar come with the shirt?

why do so many people have their design on a guitar now??

It's part of a contest. The winning design gets printed on a guitar.

very coool! favelas ftw!

I loved Cidade de Deus$5

5$

guy on the top looks like jesus

This is my favorite cityscape to date, 5.

Like the colours. Would prefer without the text (makes it look like a tourist/souvenir shirt).

Hoest nou!

"favelas ftw!"

my respect for humanity just died.

"guy on the top looks like jesus"

MY respect for humanity just died.

very good!

"favelas ftw!"

my respect for humanity just died.

woops, sorry bout that. I was carried away by the design. mybad.

i second leaving the text out.

If that's Rio, there needs to be a ton more shacks, they don't get detached houses in a favela.

big print looks awesome!

terrific... makes an awesome guitar too

Very reminiscent of Rini Templeton -- bravo!

I thought "palavras" was misspelled...But I just realized thats Rio!!..I love it!...I would buy it!

i'll close my mouth. just it.

the sun makes it a winner

its also nice having a huge print without a flood of ink

Simple pero agradable diseño y lo mas importante refleja una verdad que se vive en Brasil.

Simple and nice design, the most important thing is that reflects a reality about some people who lives at the Favelas.

Caseroo, does he really??? oh my... you must be a genius!

Nice design, great image, but a little bit too busy to be on a shirt

Legal $5

I think that IS Jesus. I've seen the statue in Portugal, but can't remember where in Brazil the other one is.

Lovely design, and I appreciate the thought that went into it.
