This video here is the one made by "Fantástico", there's also a second one made by Gonzaguinha's record company where he's accompanied
by a large group of kids singing the song. No lake in it, but this one sort of has one. The amazingly beautiful and catchy "Lindo Lago do Amor" is
a true magnificent MPB music, simple, safe and poetic while telling its cute story of a man who falls in love after having a great contact with
nature. Both videos don't bring the best out of the lyrics but they express nice things, both as being the performance of its singer/composer
and as in this case, the female dancers who appear in between his performance. They all appear in this dark scenario shot at night, with a lit house or set in the
background as the black female dancers make their dance moves. Far from the usual corny videos made for that program in the decade, it's a watchable
piece, highly enjoyable because of the beautiful song. 7/10.
