[kahnt]

I listened to almost all covers here on youtube to find out which version I grew up listening to. I don't even know who Sammy was but dang, I remember this version. An I loved it.

[sopitabo]

Every single day,you see a girl from Ipanema,who breaks your heart,with longing.

Treat your girl right motherfuckers.

[leonardnimoylover1]

[leonardnimoylover1]

[caploveslockup]

@SoHot77 I like the Jeannie version better! Yeah I liked that episode too. It was funny!

[muffin6617]

@caploveslockup Me too..I thought I was the only one.

[Awesomelybored]

You know what I love? How I can actually understand everything he says.

[SoHot77]

He was on Jeannie today.  LOL One of my favorite episodes.

[ezabdullah]

Sammy Davis was supremely talented. Could he crowd please. One of the most complete multi-talented entertainers of all time. The orchestral arrangement here is one of the best I have heard.

[DEEFIR]

Ya GOTTA love that orchestration! Great pairing!

[submersibledave]

Did you all know that he also sang the theme for the t.v. show "Barretta". :"Don't do the crime if you can't do the time..... NOOOOOO.... don't do it" Frickin' Sammy! What an entertainer.

[mysteryMusician13]

I was watching an episode of I Dream Of Jeanie and they had him singing this song so I thought I'd look it up. It's very good!

[Rukawa23Sendo]

@mysteryMusician13 i was just about to ask if anyone if they knew when sammie sung this on a tv show, saved me the wait

[AAA001Z]

wonderful version

[convertibleboy]

best version ever!

[submersibledave]

I think this is my absolute favorite version of this song (of the verions that I know.) I remember he sang it as a cameo guest on "I Dream of Jeanie"

[zrocks2001]

he sang that beautifully

what a beautiful song

[dartioli]

Muito legal essa versão de Garota de Ipanema, em inglês!

From Brasil

[Blackjesus3]

sammys so amazing

[jewelsthebarber]

sammy is a great. half black half boricua new yorker. thank you frank. frank sinatra played a major role in getting black singers and entertainers to be treated like anybody eles in showbiz. frank boycotted certain venues just to get people like sammy to be treated like anyone eles during those racist times. frank also got red fox his first recording deal.

[mlcoolk1]

@jewelsthebarber

What a damn shame, Mr. Davis couldn't be treated like a human being unless a white person said that he is to be treated as such. It is sad how African-Americans were treated ( and still being mistreated) just because of their race and nothing else. Just image what African-American women went through during time frame for being BOTH black and female.

[gshockaddict]

"Talk about handicap — I'm a one-eyed Negro Jew."

[phantom5691]

@gshockaddict i had to laugh at that one...

[Meowwie1]

Fantastic !!

As was the case with EVERYTHING he did, this song is tremendous. Notice how he adds his own flair to this popular song. What a talent !!

Respects and kudos to You, Mr. Davis; one of the greatest entertainers in the history of music.

[lamb7]

Sammy's in heaven tappin' it with Michael Jackson.  :)

[bladeguy7]

Sammy has class.

[ColumbusWasWrong]

Sammy does have class. I agree.

[AnaClaraRJ2009]

amava Sammy, amava Sinatra, amava Tom Jobim, e amo Garota de Ipanema...para sempre...

[davidaud777]

[recaulkulous]

bom-chickee-bom-chickee..... bom-bom-chickee!

[gittahfiend]

[nickyjukebox43]

there will never be another great talent like Sammy Davis Jr., no one can ever fill his shoe's.

[MEGATONHAMMA]

I miss you Sammy...

[begood2all]

Class! *****

[recaulkulous]

He performed this song as a special guest on an episode of "I Dream of Jeanie"

[SEAOFGREEN]

Yes! And on the "Jeannie" episode (which is a different version btw), at the end of rehearsing it with his band, he goes "Well...It ain't the Monkees...But it'll have to do!" LOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!! :)

[Osani65]

Just watched that episode of Jeanie. Kept rewinding to hear/see him perform this song. KOOL BABY.

[telecaster1963]

I´m looking for this version.

[Stunatra]

One of the best versions of the song that I've heard. Love Count Basie and Sammy Davis Jr.

[GN4RLY]

I love Sammy Davis Jr =D
