In English the songs title means "no way" or "yeah right." This song famously performed by the great Sergio Mendes was originally written and performed by Jorge Ben. In 1963 an unknown Ben sang his Mas Que Nada at a small gig and there was a record label executive in the crowd - his first single was released the following week. In 1966 Mendes covered Mas Que Nada on his 8th album. The song quickly became his signature song and the album went Platinum thanks to this hit. In Brazil, Rolling Stone Magazine voted this the fifth greatest Brazilian song ever, and it's been covered too many times to count.
