As the mercury rises, a new melody wafts through the airwaves, vying for the coveted title of summer anthem.

The song’s relaxed ambiance evokes the languid pace of a beachside afternoon.

Infusino’s vocals glide smoothly over a foundation of gentle synths and understated percussion, while an acoustic guitar provides a mellow accompaniment.

A soulful saxophone adds depth to the arrangement, its notes dancing through the melody like a caipirinha-inspired rhythm.

Lyrically, “I Know A Guy Named Jesus” conjures up an imaginative scenario featuring Rio’s iconic statue.

This Jesus isn’t a sombre religious figure, but a carefree local who digs samba and enjoys a good cocktail.

It’s an unexpected take that injects a dose of playfulness into the sun-drenched narrative.

The chorus latches onto your memory with its catchy refrain: “I know a guy named Jesus / Met him in Rio for caipirinhas.”

It’s the kind of line you might find yourself humming at the beach or belting out at a rooftop gathering.

While it may not be the obvious pick for song of the summer, “I Know A Guy Named Jesus” possesses an undeniable charm that could see it climbing the charts.

Its fusion of jazzy instrumentation and lighthearted lyrics offers a departure from typical pop offerings.

The jury’s still out on whether this track will become the backdrop to your summer escapades.

However, one thing’s certain: it has the power to transport you to a warm Brazilian afternoon in the blink of an eye.

Limón Limón x Tammy Infusino I Know A Guy Named Jesus Lyrics

Hello friend 
We meet again 
You see it all from where you stand 
Do you get lonely?

With your head 
Up in the clouds 
I wonder if you’re looking down
And thinking of me

Late into the night
Glowing in the light 
Floating in that
Samba 
Sky

I know a guy named Jesus
Met him in Rio for caipirinhas 
Woah
Lives up on Corcovado 
He’s always dancing to Desafinado 
Woah
I know a guy named Jesus

Oh would you trade
Your birds eye view
On a sunny afternoon 
For Ipanema 

but with the sand between your toes
It might be hard for you to go 
Yeah You’d never leave us 

Late into the night
Glowing in the light we
Floating in that
Samba P
Sky

I know a guy named Jesus
Met him in Rio for caipirinhas 
Woah
Lives up on Corcovado 
He’s always dancing to Desafinado 
Woah
I know a guy named Jesus

Late into the night
Glowing in the light 
Floating in the sky 
Floating in that
Samba 
Sky

I know a guy named Jesus
Met him in Rio for caipirinhas 
Woah
Lives up on Corcovado 
He’s always dancing to Desafinado 
Woah
I know a guy named Jesus
