<p>By Emily Mitchell/Reported by Jeannie Park

<p> Brazil has cast a spell over David Byrne, but so far he's
kept his head. He recently compiled an album of Brazilian pop
music and has now created a PBS documentary on candomble, a
religious culture in Bahia that combines earthy, sensual music
and dance. Its believers think the gods can literally take them
over; when that happens, the ecstatic followers fall into a
trance. During the filming, Byrne cautiously got into the
spirit. "I clapped or prostrated myself when it was
appropriate," he said. "But I never went into a trance. That
wouldn't have been polite."
