Paris Match - Summer Breeze (In Amsterdam)

[dnaflr2]

When I made comment that it was a samba and not a bossa I was strictly speaking of drum beat not style of song.

[Gonzales19590202]

最高だね！（＾＾）

大好きだよ！＾＾

[dukeoftime27]

I think this arrangement and both PM and NCC are fantastic! Check out Stars by PM. Another great tune! Thanks!

[ShowAoi]

her voice is so jazzy and cool but must be a japansese pop with the excellent AOR sound!

we never ignore a flow of such adult sounds..

[dnaflr2]

It's a samba, not bossa nova.



[deanilk]

@dnaflr2 you've got to be kiddin'

[crashcr]

@dnaflr2 Jazz + Samba = Bossa Nova think about it ;P

[haizesax]

this is great!!

[banditcodet]

realy great... i loved it

[joelbangayan]

very good...classical

[saltifish]

Awful, even with all that backing band she sounds flat and uninteresting.

[morinobannin11]

確かにサビの部分ちょっと似てるよ。

まあどうでもいいけど、アホは失礼じゃないかな。

[zyzx1111]

Sounds like Brazilian bossa nova to me.

[ryudo2052]

@zyzx1111 It is, pretty much. Although Bossa Nova has pretty much died, it's still alive in Japan, as impressive as it may sound.

[daniel28liu]

I'm so confused, i typed in Paris Match expecting a song by the Style Council feat. Tracy Thorn, come across this, clicked on it, expected a cover of Summer Breeze by the Isley Brothers and ended up with Heart of Glass by Blondie.

[audiofiel]

I liked it at first. But her singing is really flat. Some songs are in English, but I almost can't hear the difference.

[DarkBlueHole]

@audiofiel

yeah that's pretty much my main problem with paris match too. she doesn't bring up the intensity when the song demands it, making for overall bland choruses.

the music is always good though.

[MizzNamaste]

Fabulous! Too bad we don't hear more of this on the radio.

[thekoiponds]

this is fabulous

[luminositymusic]

I agree with you. What a Delight!!

[dugolem]

what a delight. Who knew a beautiful Japanese woman accompanied by a great Dutch Jazz group could beget wonderful bossa nova? What a delight to hear. She is so beautiful and full of grace. I must also take this time to praise New Cool Collective. The drumming is impeccable and so are the brass, woodwinds not to mention guitar, bass guitar, and everybody else. Impressive!

[ramblingvine]

@dugolem : A lot of people might be surprised that Bossa Nova is alive and well in Japan.

[yasgur74]

money is good . but is not on music.

[WimzyHaiku]

Boy, part of that song sounds an awful lot like Heart of Glass.

[Luincir]

sweet as candy.

[tpsy76]

a nice jetset style song,,,

[bascusan]

A delight for my eyes and ears. I love all about Japan (specially their women)

[nimroach]

This is brilliant! What a swing! The drumming is ace and the chorus sounds strangely familiar. FANTASTIC

[FLCL7]

dude i heard this on satellite radio, i think it was on sirius or somethin like that, anyway, THANKS for uploading 5 stars. and you can ballroom dance to this too... haha

[autismpete]

What station on Sirius did you hear this from? I'd LOVE it if sirius added a J-pop station!!

[FLCL7]

it was XM Chill. (where they play lounge music, nujazz, that type of stuff, like this one!) haha.

that would be awesome if they made a foreign station, they did at once, but then they removed it...

[dermie12]

very nice

[casawi1973]

need sexy subscribers! plz n

[bostonchip2006]

Funky and fantastic!!!

Mr. Chip's

[spareaxe]

Sounds like a Breakfast Cereal commercial, or travel song.

[LiviaStevenson]

Really good! Great Samba Gafieira !!

[Apache8GW]

Great Stuff!!!

[negutzcht]

i think i must've catched a riff there of 'matt bianco.' still, it's a great collaboration between 'paris match' and 'new cool collective.'

[zeitenwind]

Tracey Thorn come smack this bitch! .... all joking aside, very good! never been 2 japan, this could b the closest(?) swing on Paris Match!

[taeyang2008]

앨범 진짜 사고싶다..이 그룹 너무 좋네

[joey75220]

I don't know who this is....I was looking for the old 'Seals & Croft' song, but THIS...this is just nice!!!  She has a very plesant, mellow voice and I love the ensemble...this is great. THANKS!!!

[yakyak999]

Hello FullJenny, the na na bit is BLONDIE 'Heart of Glass'

CARO

[namitsu1]

I listened to this song so many times that I kind of started hating it hehe. I love paris match.

[WAIATA4U]

I like the Blondie's "Heart of Glass" verse--the "Na na na na na na na na na naaa", that introduces Summer Breeze.

If that was the intention?

[WAIATA4U]

Some things I regret in life, and not having heard of Paris Match is one of them...Better late than never!

I wonder if some of Paris Match's music were influenced by Swing Out Sister?

[chickenbone]

probably, but i know some of Mari Mizuno's favourite artists (and probably influences) are:

Everything but the girl

Suzanne Vega

Carpenters

i wonder if she's a fan of Sade? ive noticed subtle "Sade-esque" type songs on previous albums.

[eskaleno2]

ta bueno viejo, sige asi mas musica al estilo

[TheFullJenny]

Good video but about 45-55 seconds in when she's doing the 'na na na' part it sounds so much like another song but I cannot pinpoint it, I think something from the 70's or 80's - does anyone have any ideas because it's driving me crazy?!

[yumiudon]

Heart Of Glass by Debbie Harry?

[MusoukaNingyou]

I was so glad that I found this video! I had heard of this band, but never checked them out, and when I finally did (this was my first), I fell instantly in love. Thank you for posting this! :D

[mhanimal]
