Subject: Answer to the Brazilian Stay



hey, I just took a look at your page. well, I'm brazilian, and to
tell you the truth, I don't know anything either about this (Stay -
Brazil) record, but something I do know is, in 1990, when Boingo came
to Brazil (and unfortunately, I was to young, and I didn't know Boingo
yet, I couldn't go to the concert), they released this special album,
this because Stay made a lot of sucess here, the song played millions of
time in radios and at MTV.

Boingo was (and to tell the truth, it still is) very unknown to
all brazilians, so, when Stay made sucess here, I believe that they
released a single record with only this song.

this may take some time, but I can peek around here to see if anyone
here has this album... too bad I was too young to know Boingo....I also
remeber something else, by 1990, Globo (one of the brazilian's TV
network) was running a soap opera in Rio de Janeiro (where was the
Boingo concert), so, Globo USED the group! well, actualy Globo used
their name, because in the soap opera's story, the character (that were
teenagers), went to the Boingo show, that happened to be at the same
time of the soap opera's running. but I really don't know very much
about this.... I also remember (the last thing I remember) that Stay
was on the soap opera's soundtrack. but I think that this soundtrack
doesn't exist anymore.

it's a shame that only a few people here in Brazil know Boingo. not
even Dead man's party is very well known here.... the only song people
really know is Stay. well, I hope this helped you in some way. if not,
I'm sorry, I did what I could.

P.S: sorry for the English.
