Tim was the man. As a teenager he dreamed of making it big in the United States and immigrated to America dead set on never returning home again. However, just a few years later, he got kicked out of the country for smoking pot in a stolen car. After a few years back in Brazil he revolutionized Brazilian popular music and became one of the greatest soul artists of his lifetime. He married five times (or did he?), served multiple prison sentences (that's for sure), and at the height of his fame joined that UFO-obsessed religious cult -- how about that?

LYRICS: Ela partiu Partiu e nunca mais voltou Ela sumiu, sumiu e nunca mais voltou Se souberem onde ela está Digam-me e vou lá buscá-la Pelo menos telefone em seu nome Me dêumflex; uma dica, uma pista, insista Ei! e nunca mais voltou Ela sumiu, sumiu e nunca mais voltou Ela partiu, partiu E nunca mais voltou Se eu soubesse onde ela foi iria atrás Mas não sei mais nem direção Várias noites que eu não durmo um segundo Estou cansado Magoado exausto E nunca mais voltou
