Todos Lado a Lado [1]

Screenshot from the video of the song “Todos lado a lado pelo futuro do nosso país”.

Originally inspired by the style of the song “We Are the World [2]“, renowned musicians from Sao Tome and Principe unite singing a theme by Kalú Mendes [3], titled “All Side by Side for the Future of Our Country [4].” The music covers all creole languages from the islands in order to enforce the concept of union in society, regardless of ethnic branches.
