Astrud Gilberto had never sung professionally and was asked by the songs writer to sing for him on the song...she was just a girl working in the office.....Not a singer...so when the song was a huge hit and she was asked to sing on live TV....she was pretty terrified! |

Aww,... She did look scared. Was the song originally written in Spanish? There is one point the words did not fir the beat. |

The girl From Ipanema was originally written in Portuguese and there are Portuguese versions on YouTube if you search around.....But it was such a huge hit that in was inevitable that it would be recorded in English....in fact the songs writers wanted Astrud to sing because she was the only one there that spoke both Portuguese and English! |
Ipanema is a famous beach near Rio De Jinero Brazil.....my wife and I vacationed there years ago....it is always filled with gorgeous bikini wearing local woman with bronze skin and dark hair and eyes.
I'll never forget my wife laughing at me and saying "look at all those beautiful girls you're NEVER going to get to go to bed with"..... |

ImthatIm, Love this, thank you for sharing. Something about a well played acoustic guitar. Started my morning with this! :biggrin: Had to chuckle, when the next video was A very very young Santana, :icon_eek: Lucky 1, that makes sense about Portuguese. |
This might be a repeat, but it is the song of the day...
So, I thought I would check out the words to see why! :smile: https://youtu.be/Ht2_Vd7a6S8 With a little luck, Paul McCartney & Wings Happy Wednesday! |

Never thought exhibitionism was sexy.
