    Zito (footballer)

    José Ely de Miranda (8 August 1932 – 14 June 2015), commonly known as Zito, was a Brazilian footballer who played as a midfielder.

    His club career was spent mostly in the service of Santos, captaining a side including Pelé to domestic and international successes. He was also part of the Brazilian squads which won the World Cup in 1958 and 1962.

    After his retirement as a player, Zito remained at Santos as a director and youth coordinator, developing several young future international players.

    Playing career

    Born in Roseira, São Paulo, Zito joined Santos in 1952, after finishing his formation at hometown club Roseira FC, and spending two years at Taubaté. He made his debut for Peixe on 29 June 1952 in a 3–1 friendly win against Madureira.

    Zito appeared regularly for Santos in the following 15 years, playing 733 games and scoring 57 goals. He was the captain of the Os Santásticos team of the late 1950s and 1960s, playing alongside Pelé, Pepe and other Brazilian stars.

    Zito was nicknamed Gerente (manager in Portuguese) by the media during his playing days, due to helping the manager Lula while outfields. Despite missing the two last games of 1963 Intercontinental Cup due to an injury, he acted as Lula's assistant during both matches as his team won the second title in a row.

    Love Is Like Oxygen

    by: Sweet

    Love is like oxygen
    You get too much you get too high
    Not enough and you're gonna die
    Love gets you high
    Love is like oxygen
    . . .
    Time on my side
    I got it all
    I've heard that pride
    Always comes before a fall
    There's a rumour goin' round the town
    That you don't want me around
    I can't shake off my city blues
    Every way I turn I lose
    Love is like oxygen
    . . .
    Love is like oxygen
    . . .
    Time is no healer
    If you're not there
    Lonely fever
    Sad words in the air
    Some things are better left unsaid
    I'm gonna spend my days in bed
    I'll walk the streets at night
    To be hidden by the city lights
    City lights
    Love is like oxygen
    . . .
    Love is like oxygen
