This Street Performer's Near-Perfect Cover Of 'Sultans Of Swing' Is Proof That Brazil Will Be Okay

If anyone could get Brazil out of its current soccer-induced funk, we'd put our money on this guy.



A video of this guitar-totin' busker performing a rousing rendition of the Dire Straits classic "Sultans of Swing" in São Paulo has gone viral this week.



The cover is so delicious (scroll to 5:00 to listen to the street performer's epic solo) that a YouTuber said Wednesday that he "loved it so much I threw a handful of change at my computer and broke my display."



"Okay, enough World Cup Brasil memes," quipped another. "Here's a Brasilero just being awesome."



The video, first uploaded on July 5, has been viewed more than 108,000 times so far.
