  • une version tres coll the summer samba.... une voix de fille un peu enrouée... fin de soirée a l heure un filet violet nacre la fonds d'une baie tropicale.

  • thats a perfect song to listing when you make love,but not just sex

  • Listen at 4:27 and chill...

  • astrud gilberto :(

  • @underoathxrules Bebel Gilberto's version is absolutely dreamy... the soul of samba. The sound is a little more upbeat and more reflective of the music. I absolutely love Stacey's voice and her version is pure delicious but I do like Bebel's rendition of this song in particular. I think it can be found on You Tube. Check it out.

  • 素敵です♬^^

  • This samba is the "Samba de Verão" from Marcos Valle, Brazilian composer. It is also known as Summer Samba or So Nice. Credits deserved. Thanks.

    Nice interpretation here by Stacey Kent;

  • I discovered Stacey when I was a Jazz buyer at Tower Records...Her music had no sales in my store until I started to play it in my room. The more I played it ...the more folks I could draw into my world of Jazz. I fell into jazz ..at the age of 7 ..hearing the sounds of Django, Joe Pass, & Wes Montgomery...it started there..and went on....

  • Moi j'adore la façon de chanter de cette demoiselle une EXTASE merci STACEY

  • sings very well *_* is she a russian??

  • This is how the real, natural charm comes true. No faking, no pretending.

    I'm sure, Stacy was made in heaven. This kind of voice couldn't come from any other place. I keep listening to her video clips and, so far, can't get tired of it.

    Don't think I ever will.

  • you are my best living singer!

  • Apparently six people's fingers accidentally slipped and tapped the wrong button.

  • Sweet and Nice Night <3

  • Nice..reminds me of Astrud Gilberto.

  • How in the world can ANYone click "dislike" on this?!?!

  • Just discovered Stacey through the npr.com website "take five..." and I am absolutely in love with her velvet voice. WOW, wow, wow

  • This version is very smooth. She's slowed it a notch and it's just perfect.

  • we always use this number as cool down after Zumba class...just perfect!!! love it to for that romantic evening with the right other person... or the right romantic book hahahah.

  • Wow this is so slow and sensual.

  • ...this is the slowest version yet !

  • Ela canta muito bem ,voz linda está nos meus favoritos, mas é mais um samba canção do que bossa é só ver Bebel Gilberto cantando para ver a diferença.

  • This sounds autotuned. If not, WOW

  • so nice, so nice

  • Beau ! Magnifique Solo de Saxo !

    Un classique de la Bossa Nova, superbement interprété par Stacey Kent !

    Belle interprétation musicale intimiste !

    Merci , quel Bonheur !

    Geneviève de Bruxelles

  • HMMM JADOOORE CA EVEILLE MES INSTINCTS DE CHAUDIERE TROP BIEN

  • This beautiful song for my friend Ludette

  • Classy performance thanks for sharing :)C

  • love this sone

  • No words to explain what I feel. You are,with diana Krall and Eliane Elias the best jazzwomen singers.

  • ich habe mich in diese stimme verliebt. es kribbelt der ganze rücken

    super stimme schöne frau

    ein fan

  • Soooooooooooooooo nice!

  • 6 stars!!! Perfect voice for the bossa nova beat. Thanks bettyblue for the upload.

  • These are wonderful videos.

    There is a problem getting them to play on my home theater system. When I open my YouTube play lists on my Sony Blue-Ray player these videos don't show up with the others I have saved. I can only hear them on the cheesy speakers on my computer.

    Does anyone have a solution?.

  • fresh and lovely voice from beginning to end like the beauty of a morning dawn..wow..stacey..

  • Vous ou Diana Krall !

  • Mmmmmmmmmmmhhhhhhhhhhh merci !

  • Once every generation or so, comes the voice of an angel. There is a quality about Stacey that goes right to your soul... The last time I was affected by one single voice was the first time I heard Anita Kerr. I'm trying to find, what I believe, is Stacey's voice behind a commercial... Love may be in the title.. Sure sounds like her.

  • @SmokefromKnob You may be thinking of Joanie Sommers, who sang on the Pepsi commercials in the early 60s. One of the Pepsi Jingles was sung to the tune of 'Makin Whoopee'. Search Youtube for her videos - the timbre of her voice is strikingly close to Stacey Kent's.

  • Sorry which album is this song from?? Anyone?? :)

  • Hehe I found the answer ;D

    Jim Tomlinson (featuring Stacey Kent)

    Brazilian Sketches

  • BEAUTIFUL VOICE.I LIKED:)

  • So beautiful, the music, the voice, the tempo, perfect. Love it.

  • this voice was one of the benchmarks of my musical journey, when i was 16 clearly remember this voice standing tall above the others... bless you

  • so nice!!! :)))

  • Comment removed

  • Great voice and stage presence. Does sound strangely like Lesley Gore from the sixties. I enjoyed her rendition of Isn't It A Pity

  • best best

  • Best voice for this song... Wonderful

  • yes ! it is ..

  • Es fabulosa!!

    Su voz se acopla perfectamente a melodías tan bellas como ésta.

    Es una nueva vocalista del jazz-bossa, con un estilo muy personal que le otorga su forma de cantar.

    Vamos qué me encanta!

    Un saludo,

    Elsa

  • Stacy Kent is far beyond good. She's great and to ask "what ever happened to real vocal jazz" is actually saying "I don't have a clue what real vocal jazz is but I know I don't like it". She and Diana Krall are both every bit as good as June Cristy, Julie London, Nancy Wilson or Ella Fitzgerald at their best. Their voices and styles are the only thing that separates them, and Stacey Kent has a wonderfully unusual voice. But she represents female jazz vocalists at their very best.

  • Według mnie - to jest lepszy głos. Bardziej soft. Ale wykonanie D.Krall bardziej mi się podoba. Jest weselsze.

  • I surely prefer the Krall version!

  • What ever happened to real vocal jazz!!??

  • This is so mediocre.... Eliane Elias, "the queen" , has recorded an amazing version of this tune on her 2004 recording , Dreamer. Eliane is the real deal.

  • @Allmusic08 Agreed, totally. Standards for jazz have really fallen.

  • wonderful voice!!!

  • Another up and coming singer with great style. She has a lot going for herself,of course she has a band that is second to none to back her up.

  • Walter Wanderley did difinitive version back in the 60s.

  • @pt2zke: he said with a ton of mispellings, etc. I meant "the definitive version."

  • Fabuloooosaaaa!!!

  • It's not by her, I believe it was a cover of Astrud Gilberto or Antonio C Jobim? Or is it her song?

  • Me encanta esta cantante y este cancion tan hermosa!

  • divino <3

  • it's like so nice from bebel gilberto

    really similar ..

    but both are amazing songs =)

  • Stacey Kent Is the Only reason why the Polar Caps are Melting !

    Pure Magic !

  • Hui das sing ich grad im Gesangsunterricht! Ich mag das Lied ^^

  • HORRIVEL

  • Yesterday i saw Stacey Kent at CCB!

    Wonderfull;)

    Some of the music's from the new album are delicius...

  • have to listen to it at least 5 time a day before sleep..

  • i just discovered her, and i am impressed with her soft, gentle and crystal clear voice.... perfect for bossa nova, bravo!

  • @upisana I too just discovered her when I walked into an high end audio boutique store and in a ultra unique audio room, Stacey Kent was playing . . . I immediately fell in love with her song . . .

  • So smooth and so coool, Almost in heaven

  • molto bella! ciao!

  • The other versions don't compare.

  • very brasilian indeed

    the sax is pure bossa nova, magical

  • thank you.................

  • so nice! :D

  • So relax .... I love this song !

  • love stacy kent and sophie milman

  • Me too! They are great!

  • Beautyfull, cool sound. Heard her for the first time (live) back in 1998-1999 in a very small place, where they played for 35-40 listeners. She was great, taking her time to talk and enjoy between the sets. The laidback, cool sound was already there - GREAT tune!

  • this song make want to go bed and sleeping,dreaming

  • Excellent vocals. Great sax from Jim Tomlinson

  • the gringos love the brasilian music!!!

    we rulez!!!!!!!

  • Pure velvet. Stacey you are the greatest. from an 81 year-old admirer

  • @bobbergman4 You nailed it Bobber But you got here first !!!!! (I'm 76) Velvet, romantic, smoochy, natural and good sax blowing too.

  • @bobbergman4 if you're 81 that mean I'm dead.

    fuck you, fuck off

  • @bobbergman4 - Sorry, I am the first, I'm 82.

  • Je viens juste de découvrir et je dois avouer que j'adore! <3

  • I like ot its very relaxing and true

  • What can you say, slick to the tick

  • comparto tu comentario , pero la version de astrud me trae recuerdos el toque del organo hammond etc y su voz es unico

  • Acabo de escuchar la version de Astud Gilberto y estoy de acuerdo contigo... aunque el solo de saxofon en esta version es bellisimo...

  • she has such a beautiful voice....one of the best covers of this song.

  • Fantastic!!

  • Gorgeous, lovely smooth voice, understated, just beautiful1!!

  • Simply wonderful! That voice and that so divine interpretation! Stacey Kent is one of but the great ones of the Contemporary Jazz. Thank you very much by similar work of art! : )

  • What a great talented young lady singer! This song has been my all times favourite since the first time (back in 2004) i listened at one the record shops in KL, Malaysia.

    I would highly recommended to play this song with your Hi-Fi system at home. It would be a great song to test the low bass, mid range and high treble of your Hi-Fi Loudspeakers!!
