"Eduardo e Mônica" (Eduardo and Monica) is a song from Brazilian rock band Legião Urbana's 1986 album Dois, released as promo single. It tells a romantic story centered on a couple formed by the 16-year-old Eduardo and the older college student Mônica, who are very different from each other.
The title characters are inspired by songwriter and vocalist Renato Russo's friend Leonice de Araújo Coimbra and her husband Fernando Coimbra, although he also once said Eduardo is based on him himself, though "less of a fool".
