During "The Shrew", a song from Beirut's brand new EP March of the Zapotec, Mexico became the destination of choice. "Gulag Orkestar" sparked a quick trip to the Balkans. With "Cherbourg" Beirut took the attendees to France. Using an impressive variety of instrumentation (stand-up bass, accordion, trumpet, trombone, french horn, euphonium, and Condon's signature ukulele), the band played a batch of tunes that appropriately ushered the audience to a variety of places around the world. Zach Condon would choose to begin Beirut's set with a simple "Good evening everyone", diving immediately into the set, to the rapturous applause of the hundreds in attendance.

The original beat "sang on imagination, highlighting the sound of the rain, on syncope beats of fantastic tambourins". Initially, he wrote the first chords, which he defined as "vibrant", and a "plangent of emotions". According to the composer, he "felt all the greatness, the value and the wealth of our land", reliving "the tradition of the national panels". Describing the song in an interview to Marisa Lira, of the newspaper Diário de Notícias, Barroso said that he wanted to "free the samba away from the tragedies of life, of the sensual scenario already so explored". He also wrote "Três lágrimas" (Three Teardrops) on that same night, before the rain ended. Its title, a reference to watercolor painting, is a clear reference to the rain. From Wikipedia: Ary Barroso wrote "Aquarela do Brasil" in early 1939, when he was prevented from leaving his home one rainy night due to a heavy storm.
