In 2004, the Brazil­ian musi­cian Seu Jorge record­ed a series of Por­tuguese cov­ers of David Bowie songs for Wes Anderson’s film The Life Aquat­ic with Steve Zis­sou. The next year, he released a full album of 13 Bowie clas­sics, and in 2016–2017, he even took the songs on tour. Now, in 2026, to mark the 10th anniver­sary of Bowie’s pass­ing, Jorge returns with the per­for­mance above. Set against a beau­ti­ful Brazil­ian coast­line, he sings some of Bowie’s most beloved tracks, all while in char­ac­ter as Pelé dos San­tos, the role he played in Anderson’s film. See the full track list below and enjoy.
