Joaquim de Magalhães Fernandes Barreiros (born June 19, 1947, in Vila Praia de Âncora, Portugal), known professionally as Quim Barreiros, is a Portuguese Pimba music writer,[1] singer and accordion player, more known for his double entendre songs.[2] Among his biggest hits are Bacalhau à Portuguesa [Portuguese Style Cod] (1986),[3] A Garagem da Vizinha [The Neighbour's Garage] (2000)[4] and A Cabritinha [The Little Goat] (2004).[5]
