A Protest Song for the Brazil World Cup

In the run-up to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil thousands of people demonstrated because they disapproved of the money spent by their government when many were struggling with joblessness, inequality and poverty. Edu Krieger, a singer from Rio de Janeiro, wrote a song "Desculpe, Neymar" or "Sorry, Neymar" - an apology to the Brazilian football player. Edu spoke to Newsday's Julian Keane.
