Dear Kevin and Karen,

After a long and exhaustive search, I can honestly say that your version of this wonderful song is the finest I've ever heard. Most especially your really cool vocal harmony arrangement - totally unique!! I'm really wanting to get this on my ipod, but alas...... I've listened to your other posts as well and I'm so impressed with guitar and vocal talents. You truly play and sing these songs the way they were meant to be played. Thank you!! Gary from Raleigh NC

[gnukev]

@imgwg2117 Gary, Thanks very much for your kind words and observations!

(now in Portuguese)

Este é o melhor vídeo de americanos cantado bossa-nova que eu já vi. Gostei muito! Vocês realmente conseguiram reproduzir o ritmo brasileiro. E ainda em português! Gostei muito disso! Algo que nunca tinha visto era um americano conseguir isso. E olha que já vi muitos tentarem.

Quem diz isto a vocês é um brasileiro nato, que conhece muito bem a ginga inerente desse ritmo da nossa terra, que traz em si uma alegria que contagia. Recebam como um grande elogio.

[gnukev]

@fariaubiali Obrigado pela vossa atencao e por sua elogios em Ingles e Portugues. Apreciamos especialmente ouvi-lo a partir de um Brasileiro! (sorry, no diacritics on this computer yet!)

[fariaubiali]

This is the best video of Americans singing bossa-nova I've ever seen. Loved it! You really managed to reproduce the rhythm of Brazil. And even in Portuguese! I really enjoyed it! Something that was never seen an American do that. And look what I've seen many try.

Who tells you this is a Brazilian born, who knows very well that the swing inherent pace of our land, which brings a joy that is contagious. Received as a great compliment.

[gnukev]

@fariaubiali Thank you very much for listening and especially for your nice compliments in both English and Portuguese! You are very thoughtful. Muito obrigado!

[B3808JAZZ]

it's like you playing with the wave's sound as the rhythm. nice to hear :)

[gnukev]

@B3808JAZZ That ocean is between us. Thanks for listening all that distance!

[SergioMarcioBR]

Very Good! Congratulations! =)

[gildedintention]

[thatagis]

Lindo! Kevin você tem toda a 'ginga' pra tocar a Bossa-Nova e a Karen tem uma voz maravilhosa! Tudo muito suave! Tive o privilégio de morar 2 anos no Rio. Cidade Maravilhosa, sem dúvida! Thanks a lot!! Continuem sempre!

[gnukev]

@thatagis Muito Obrigado! Gostamos do Rio!!!

[bronzester]

You two are the best. Thank you from my heart. Here, in Brazil, people knows that Bossa Nova was the peack, the best that brazilian music has generated but, saddly, what we listen on the midia is only trash. Stuff like rap and things that i didnt even know how to explain. Thanks heaven for the mp3 players...lol

[MrKeys57]

these kind a chords just strikes me right in my heart! and your singing! the lady has a very nice an soft voice, and you have a nice touch on the guitar! keep it on!

[gnukev]

@MrKeys57 Thank you Mr. Keys Levi. This is a beautiful composition by Jobim. Makes me want to fly to Rio immediately!

Santa Cruz, CA. At Pleasure Point. Thanks!

[zantejazz]

Sweet!

[kattastrofe]

Nice singing in Portuguese. I'm Brazilian and this sounds a lot like native Brazilian singing. A tip:

Try to pronounce the 'can' of 'cant' as 'cun'.

Overall, great job. Nice guitar playing too.

[gnukev]

Thanks for the tip!

[washtubbass]

sweet

[rdsan]

Very Nice!

[capoia]

[garotobossanova]

[Cidspike]

Above all reminds me Rio, the gorgeous beauty of that city and people, Carnival, Fire Dispay during new year's Eve! Brazilians no how to party!!! Rio is fantastic! The Marvelous City!

[Cidspike]

God save genius Tom Jobim! It's sexy, sophisticated, happy, meldodic, plesant, is fabulous, I love Bossa-Nova...No More Blues, Wave, Insensitive, and mainly Gril from Ipanema are incomparable classics!!!Madonna, Cher, Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Salena Jones, Sting , Stevie Wonder, Liza Minelli, George Michael, Sarah Vaughan, Tony Bennett, Rosemary Clooney, Diana Krall , Laura Figy, Oscar Peterson, Chick Corea, Mariza ...have already recorded his songs, I love him!

[gnukev]

Let's not forget Pat Metheny, Eliane Elias, Rosa Passos, Kevyn Lettau, Michael Franks, Al Jarreau, New York Voices, Randy Brecker and many more.

[newporter42]

A treat for both ears and eyes.

[alamovstrom]

[plaidsportcoat]

[anandanaga999]

I even like that part at the end when he tries to grab my head.

[gnukev]

LOL

[jonalou35]

Great! Thanks for sharing, it's a pleasure. I am so jealous you make it look so easy, I have been fighting with this track for a long time... Again, great arrangement not so 'typical' bossa-wise but so truthful to the original spirit & soul. Looking forward for more!

[gnukev]

Merci Beaucoup!

[cillababe7]

Wow ! A Pleasure Point serenade.  Wonderful!!

Great job Kev and I remember her from your birthday party a few years back. She was great back then and again now. Great job you two! Kev I will be up there the weekend of Sept 12th. Hope to see you! Seeing the Dan on 08/04.

Love you Guys!!

SCAL (the Original)

[gnukev]

Thanks, Original Scal. I'm envious that you're going to see "The Dan". Did I tell you I saw Donald Fagen's group and they played almost the entire "Nightfly" album? The complex vocal harmonys were perfectly recreatd live. It was incredible.

[dianeb1020]

Glad to hear more of your beautiful music....

[bazwillrun]

That was about as perfect as perfect gets !!!
