always liked this one, especially the live version, that was released as a single B-sides several years back.
But this truly is the brother of Do the neurotic. And I understand people who prefer DTN. But I don't.

Good, but Do the Neurotic is head-and shoulders better. Oh, to think how much better the IT album would have been with DTN and Feeding the Fire included.

a great finale of a fascinating album. Sometimes I hate it, sometimes I love it. But Brazilian is always nice to hear!

9 from me.
Do the neurotic is much better - still wonder why they have put Brazilian on the record instead.

They'd have found it a much better fit, and they were right.

I think Do the Neurotic has good bits but sounds like a jam that might be raided for bits at a later date. The Brazilian sounds like it was worked on until it was a finished piece. I’m sure they could have done the same with DTN but perhaps chose not to.
