The jingle began as a Rádio Globo station ident for América do Rio, sung at the time by singer Fábio, and it was later shared online with credit to Bill Badger. Because several Brazilian clubs share the name América, the same short ident proved easy to reuse, and many radio stations across Brazil adopted it for their own América teams. That shared name, rather than one club alone, explains why the clip still circulates as a general América football sound.
