O Tempo Não Pára is a 1988 song by Brazilian singer-songwriter Cazuza, now remembered as one of his signature works. Its title, meaning time does not stop, became a widely quoted phrase in Brazilian pop culture, especially in reflections on ageing, urgency and lost time. Short clips of the song circulate online because the hook is immediately recognisable, letting creators borrow its emotional weight for montages, tributes and commentary without playing the full track.
