Sérgio de Barros Godinho OL (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈsɛɾʒiu ɣuˈðiɲu]; born 31 August 1945) is a Portuguese singer-songwriter, composer, actor, poet and author.

Considered one of the most influential popular musicians in Portugal, Godinho started his music career singing folk songs of música de intervenção (Portuguese protest songs) while in exile, in the years preceding the Carnation Revolution of 1974 in Portugal, and is regarded as one of the genre's major figures.

Besides his music career, Godinho is also a stage and film actor, and has released poetry and fiction books.
