Manhã De Carnaval!

From "Orfeu Negro," a Brazilian, French, Portuguese production, from many years ago. The singer here is actually the fabled brilliant Brasilian vocalist, Elizete Cardoso.

Thanks Veradero for the posting.

Thanks Elizete for your beautiful vocals.

This song has held on to my heart since I first heard it in 1965.

[varadero1839]

@16mmfilmcollector The thanks belong to you 16mmfilmcollector! I'm so grateful to hear from you, and for your information, I think we saw this film around the same year! We were both about 7 years old, correct? Just kidding! I'm thrilled to relive this memory with you!

To me, Marpessa Dawn was, and is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen in my life. This movie, and song has haunted me since my first viewing as a teenager (I'm 42 years old now...), and every time this movie plays on Turner Movie Classics, I make sure to watch it. A wonderful movie for foolish romantics like me...;-)

@kwakie96 You're so right; you may have thought you were too young to appreciate the beauty of this song, and interpretation, but your "good-ear" says otherwise. Thanks so much for your comment!

Magnifique !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! J'adore depuis toujours cette chanson, merci!

[MonsieurSurtou]

@early60srcool the singer is Elizete Cardoso, so-called "the Divine"... I'd like to know more about you!

[MonsieurSurtou]

@leovidoni No, dear, they have great voices both of them, but this recording is Elizete's, FOR SURE.

[MonsieurSurtou]

@lovebeingamum40 She died in 2008, poor and toothless, although happy. That's really sad.

[MonsieurSurtou]

@Memale2009 No, dear... there is another video with this same recording and wrongly atributed to wonderful Astrud Gilberto, but in fact this magical voice belongs to our brazilian "divine" singer Elizete Cardoso. Believe me, I'm brazilian AND a researcher.
