Her voice is so soothing and mesmerizing! Every note of the song she hits with such grace and beauty its literally breath taking. One of the very best female voices of the 20th century without a doubt!
Just so beautiful and perfect. The way she wraps her mouth around the words is really delicious. And the music and arrangement are amazing. All the instruments are gorgeous, and this is the best arrangement of this song. This is just perfect music. The instruments are like a watercolor, impressionistic and just enough to suggest the colors and the tone. The minimal piano in the background in the first minute are the perfect touches. And the way those two notes are played at 1:19...sweet
@katholikoromano não é caso de simpatia é de sensibilidade :) é maravilhosa, é muito díficil fazer música com o conteúdo brilhante e profundo que o português permite, e escrever português com a vossa musicabilidade é simplesmente mágico,genial... não quero transformar esta resposta numa luta entre países ou num debate xenófobo, só gosto de música, o mérito é neste caso, totalmente Brasileiro. Parabéns.
una voce irripetibile, troppo bella e grande,,, per una terra così piccola! forse per questo è volata via, lasciato un vuoto incolmabile, ti amo regina, per il tuo sorriso, la tua voce, e tutta la tua bellezza.
Es absolutamente cierto: es fuerte y tierna al mismo tiempo, sensual pero cotidiana, relajada y a la vez intensa, profundamente melodiosa y rítmica como ninguna; con los pies en la tierra, más, soñadora e inspirada como ninguna otra.
I've heard this song many many times, but I gotta say, this version is GORGEOUS! There's another video on Youtube of Elis singing it to a completely different tune (much much somber), I love Elis Regina!
Amazing...The atmosphere this song brings is very emotional. I heard this song for the first time in the soundtrack of Next Stop Wonderland 9 years ago. And now this is the first time I see the singer's face...Finally I can connect the voice with the face. Does anybody know what she was singing?
Exactly the same place I discovered this song. I was stationed in Korea, at the time and was just getting into Brazilian music, when I saw this movie. I went out and bought the soundtrack soon after. But, while looking for this soundtrack, I came across Antonio Carlos Jobim, Astrud Gilberto, Joao Gilberto, Gal Costa, Nana Caymmi, Rosa Passos, etc,. That really pushed me forward with the music -- I've been hooked ever since : )
@mln853 That movie was indeed a trove of marvelous Brazilian music - quite amazing if one thinks that the setting was the Boston Harbor and its surroundings.
reminds me of my first marriage. everything was so "new" and I was in love.

I got this album from ebay a couple of months ago on vinyl, fantastic record!
If you like this try Grant Green: That Latin Bit, a great instrumantal record from Blue Note.

Hi min853. I'm glad you liked it.The lyrics are more or less these:
Oh, those murmuring fountains
where I quench my thirst.
Where the moon comes to frolic.
Oh, that Brazil pretty and coloured
It's my Brazilian Brazil.
Land of Samba and Tambourine.
Brazil of mine, Brazil of mine.
Girl of tough hair
Which is the comb that combs you?...
