the Full Original version is longer (5min 25sec) it has a saxophone solo and a piano solo. *Stan Getz , João Gilberto ft Astrud Gilberto - The Girl From Ipanema (Verve Records 1963)* (Album : Getz/Gilberto 1963) It is the classic version that everyone knows. The version you reacted to is the short version for live performances In the full version João Gilberto sings first verse in portuguese and then Astrud Gilberto sings the verse in english. ,

This album was huge and still is. The other Gilberto on the album, Joao, has a daughter, Bebel, from another marriage who is a talented singer who made her name singing on acid jazz albums in the 90s.

I adore this track. As you say, it's so relaxing, like a day on the beach when there are few people around. It's also a sexy track. It's perfect for an elegant cocktail bar too. Wonderful stuff. Thanks so much for this.

Love everything about the ambiance of this smooth samba, and the complement of Stan's rich saxophone solo 🎷 to the lovely Astrud's singing with a guileless, yet sophisticated presence. If there ever was a vocal like a softly muted tenor sax... it is Astrud's. Her voice is cool as a whispering, sighing breeze... chill and clear and gently rhythmic like a Brazilian brook over smooth rocks. She sings "The Girl From Ipanema" with the real wistfulness of the story that the lyrics tell. All about the beautiful girl who gracefully passes a secret admirer whose eyes follow her as she walks down to the sea. Day after day, he can't summon his courage, and his heart goes unspoken. She passes, but she just doesn't see. Have we, too, a desire that hopes, but cannot dare to speak? 💭😕💔

Astrud was asked to sing a vocal for Ipanema on a jazz instrumental album by Stan Getz and her husband Joao Gilberto in 1964. With no vocal training she turned out to be a natural and went on to record many beautiful albums over the next 40 years.

This is just an FYI (got this from Google AI): Stan Getz sounds like stan gets. I say this not w/ malice but w/ friendly affection. P.S. I wonder if Astrud is where Lana Del Rey got her vibe from. Just coolly distant & still, yet elegant. i suspect if people knew that connection, Ms. Del Rey wouldn't have been raked over the coals for her SNL performance.

As I recall the girl in the song is from Brazil, and I think so is she.

Love her, but it sounds much better in Portuguese.
