I grew up with this song and loved it. But then, when I was walking down the street one day as a young woman of 21, a man passed by me, turned around and told me that I looked like the girl from Ipanema. I'll be 70 next month. It's a good memory.

Very groovy baby... yeah

[@rightplacewrongtime1602]

Stan Getz was my cousin. I didn’t meet him much as he was a lot older than me, but he was the famous one of the family. He was given a toy guitar as a kid and played it all the time. My aunt brought him up as his father passed very young. He really was something to listen to on the sax. And with Astrud there singing, they made beautiful music together. RIP Stan & Astrud.

“Stan” who?

[@carolinemorgan1712]

So calm, so cool. That sums this up perfectly.

[@superorangeish]

The smoothest and most unpretenious voice and style a female vocalist has ever produced.

[@richbacon1218]

Astrud, a Brazilian house wife, came to America because she spoke more English than Tom or João and their phrase book English. Astrud's father was a language professor and she spoke several languages. While recording, João asked Astrud to sing some verses in English. She didn't have a professional voice, however the voice and the music had a haunting dream-like quality and the rest became musical history.

[@Harryfish-yu1yh]

[@johndaarteest]

This song is astoundingly beautiful with Astrud's singing, and Getz's Sax is smoother than a cashmere codpiece.

[@rightplacewrongtime1602]

Stan Getz was my cousin. He was literally given a toy sax as a little boy. He brought Bossa Nova to the US from Brazil. Very, very under appreciated. He was always on when he played. He did dabble way too much in drugs and alcohol and cancer caught up with him. RIP Stan & RIP Astrud.

[@samuelvance5674]

At that age, it is impossible to think that any of the people involved with this song, had any idea that they were about to serenade timeless greatness.

[@garyfrancis6193]

Christmas is in the middle of summer in Brazil.

[@Cha-y412]

I was thinking the exact same thing , what was going on singing a beautiful song with a Christmas tree in a ski resort. The Antonio Jobim / Vin Moraes Brazilian Portuguese / English sang song is a Bossa Nova / Jazz composition that screams of a beautiful Brazilian beach - Not Aspen Colorado.

I played those records so much you could practically hear both sides at once. My adoration was for Stan Getz -- see the adoration on his face in the 1964 version. They were together some years. RIP Astrud, such beauty of voice and soul.

[@galastar257]

What a shame he was such a nasty piece of work who ripped her off. RIP Astrud❤

[@Senorzilchnzero]

Stan Getz was a horrible human being. He made sure she didnt get any royalties for this song, he was an addict and a bully. But if pedophile Michael Jackson is still adored by millions of Americans, than I dont see any problem with people putting Getz on a pedestal.

[@carlogiottones348]

Cracks me up how people get carried away by bossa nova. This is something you had to live with day after day, not just by watching music on KZbin - i was lucky to live in Brasil, from Europe back in the 70s, Tom Jobim, Toquinho, Vinicius...the new Bossa Nova of the 80s. It's something that if you were lucky to witness, it will stay with you for the rest of your life...
