Carioca (Portuguese: [kaɾiˈɔkɐ] ( listen)) is a Portuguese adjective or demonym that is used to refer to the native inhabitants of the city of Rio de Janeiro - capital of the homonym state (RJ), in Brazil. The original word, "Kara'i oca," comes from the indigenous Amerindian language of the Tupi people, meaning "White Man's House." The demonym meaning for the state of Rio de Janeiro is Fluminense, taken from the Latin word "flumen", meaning "River". So for instance, someone from Niterói is Fluminense and Niteroiense and someone from Rio is Fluminense and Carioca.
It is said that the first Portuguese dwellings in Rio de Janeiro were placed along a limpid stream, which soon got the Portuguese name "Carioca". The last PNAD (National Research for Sample of Domiciles) census numbers for the Rio de Janeiro (state) are: 8,576,000 white people (53.6%), 5,376,000 Pardo people (33.6%), 1,920,000 black people (12%) and 128,000 Asian or Amerindian people (0.8%). The last PNAD census for Rio de Janeiro (city) is: 3,193,588 white people (50.5%), 2,244,997 Pardo people (35.5%), 809,463 black people (12,8%) and 75,887 Asian or Amerindian people (1.2%).

Genres: Drama,The stars in the night played a Blue Carioca
The moon shone outside as the planet revolved
The wind was caressed with the fragrance of summer
The night gentle nature impelled us to love
And I sat alone on a beach by a palm tree
Your silhouette cast a glow on the sand
And there with the sound of the waves and the smell of gardenias
Two lovers sailed on romance through a magical land
Dancing and dancing all night to that Blue Carioca
Living the wonderful dream that remains
Caught up inside of a Blue Carioca
Two lovers fly on its lovely refrain
Glide, glide on Carioca
Glide, glide on out to sea
Glide, glide on Carioca
Glide, glide on out to sea
Dancing and dancing all night to that Blue Carioca
Living the wonderful dream that remains
Caught up inside of a Blue Carioca
Two lovers fly on its lovely refrain
Glide, glide on Carioca
Glide, glide on out to sea
Glide, glide on Carioca
