Released in Tom Zé's sophomore album in 1970, the song is an avalanche of Tropicalia elements, blending together psychedelia, rock, and orchestral arrangements that are seemingly weird. The lyrics are a mixture of invented English and Portuguese, with the citation of counter-culture figures like Caetano, Gal Costa, Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, and Jimi Hendrix, whose name is a play of words with the song's title. Access the Translatiosmith for a complete translation and lyrical analysis. "Jimmy Renda-se" was never a hit in the 1970s, but gained cult status over the years, and is now and ultimately was included in the soundtrack of Oscar-winner movie "Ainda Estou Aqui" in a pivotal car scene.
