I've always loved this song, but avoided learning it 'til now, I guess since sometimes people like to make fun of it (the fate of all things popular!)
Just for fun, I've added syllables to the well-known English words to better match the melody of the Portuguese version. Sacrilege, i know!
This recording is dedicated to my friend Adriana Barreiros, with thanks for her friendship and support. You can hear her beautiful music at:

Photos of Anouk Aimee from Jacques Demy's 1961 film "Lola" - one of my favorites. (Did you know that the story of that movie continues in Demy's magnificent "Umbrellas of Cherbourg", and even has a brief reference in "The Young Girls of Rochefort? I've even heard there's another little-seen movie called Model Shop which continues Lola's own story.)

This is fantastic! You have done an absolutely amazing job - the voice, the pictures, the accent (I'm kidding, I'm too ignorant to even notice actually). I'm definately looking up your other music :)

I think your voice ... ( 1 month ago by anniemihn)
I think your voice and phrasing are very appropriate to sing this classic Bossa Nova song. It´s a sweet, simple, relaxed, and intimate sound, you got it, mate! Probably João Gilberto would have approved it and he is a very, very demanding person when it comes to music. Your portuguese sounds good too (I´m brazilian).

I grew up when this song was popular here in the US. I was in live with Astrid Gilberto...your version stirs those memories...nicely done.

Yes I know I sound funny! I recorded this a long time ago, and have learned to sing it much better since then. But this version has so many 'views' that I don't want to delete it! Maybe next month when I pass 1 million total views (for all my videos) I'll get courageous, delete this recording and post a new one.
Thanks for the kind ... ( 2 days ago by sonnenberg)
Thanks for the kind words. I've thought about retranslating this many times... Although I expect the known words could be improved, I myself have too much affection for the existing lyrics to try and improve them... I think I'll let this one ride!
