[@therealniksongs]

R. I. P. to the great Sergio Mendes. He was brilliant and always one of my most revered and admired idols. He created more than just a sound, he created a feel, an experience in which you were transported to a beautiful, romantic world all its own. His music is a genre unto itself. I first discovered him when I was 13, in 1966. I am 71 now and this is still some of the greatest music of my entire lifetime...it is classic; it is as beautiful and fresh today as it ever was. Thank you Sergio, you made the world a better and more beautiful place!

[@earlviney5212]

I hear ya.

[@auroramateo455]

I M 71 too his words sink deep into my soul exp Like a Lover

[@imarapereira4436]

Ah! The time when the music was MUSIC… not the trashy of todays!!! The singers were dressed decently…. We need more SERGIO MENDEZ in our lives again!

[@edmunddantes7165]

Wow! Seems like a lot of us are of the same age and with Sergio as our favorite. He resonated deeply with me. I'm now 71 too. This song has carried me through my life since 1966. From my first love to my greatest love...my late wife. From the triple tiered jungle in Vietnam to the medevac hospital and learning to walk again. Through the thick and thin of life Sergio and this song has been my companion giving hope and serenity. Thank you Sergio. Rest in peace. See you when i join my wife. Until then, you and your music will be in my heart, always.

[@lisatorres7743]

My Wonderful Father, Melvin, played all these songs on his Fischer Stereo System and it was so Awesome. I was 7 yrs old then and still listen to them at 63, As we speak my 96 yr. Old Father is passing from Alheimerz''s,. All these songs are for you Dad!!! I Love You so much, Dad!!!

[@jmrodas9]

Well thank GOD he lived a long life, and I hope he recovers. Regards.

[@edwinlipton]

So glad you got too know a father like that.

[@crisoliveira1542]

God bless your dear father 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@douglasrowland3722]

A good father is IRREPLACEABLE.....We All Have One Father... WE Will Be Following Him Shortly.... take. a. look. around 👁️👁️

[@thomasgabruk6592]

I enjoy all of them today and loved them in my teens😍😍😍😍

[@carlspeicher5394]

I have listened to this song hundreds of times and it never grows old. Thank you Sergio!

[@blujay9191]

The vocal on this song is just sublime. Lani Hall. Wow.

[@genoortiz743]

One of the most beautiful songs EVER.....!!!!!

[@judywillis2345]

That is FOR SURE!!!!

[@johnkom2339]

True poetry.

[@crossleydd42]

Another favourite of mine is "So many Stars".

[@deanajamroz1182]

RIP, Sergio Mendez. This was always my favorite Brazil '66 song. Sweet, soothing, and is as beautiful today as it was back in the day.

[@ianevallim]

Esta música e a gravação, arranjos etc até hj me causam arrepios de emoção! Divina!

[@teacher55oliveros]

The sweet melancholy this theme brings with its soft piano, the violins in the background, and especially the voices, particularly the unique female voice, of Lany Halll makes this Sergio Mendez's best song among many other fine songs for me. Thank you Master for the music. Music for the Eternity.

[@stevea.7406]

The beautiful string arrangements in many of Sergio's songs created such a dream like atmosphere....a drug free high.

[@therealniksongs]

Dave Grusin. A Master and a genius himself.

[@maxjackson8746]

A love song of the highest order.

[@edwinlipton]

WE WERE ALL SO BLESSED!

[@edmunddantes7165]

Sergio Mendes and his music had always been with me since 1966. His music uplifted me through the bad times and celebrated with me in the best times. I agree with my late wife the song "Like A Lover" is the most romantic song ever and his version of "Waters of March" is the best ever. He lives on in us with his music, but his presence in this reality will be heartily missed. For seeing me through my teenage years, for carrying me through one war and for serenading my love journey with the best woman, thank you Sergio. Now she can enjoy the wonderful music of yours in a front row seat for eternity.

[@tonyreilley2842]

One of the smoothest songs ever, so overlooked.

[@GB_Rad71]

Not so much overlooked actually... J Dilla sampled this in '95 for the alternative artist Poe on her song 'fingertips'.... @1:11 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGean2yOqN99bdUfeature=shared

[@jeffreymorton2883]

Brasil 66 is the sound of my childhood and I'm a white boy from Kentucky! My parents were into Burt Bacharach, Herb Alpert & the Tijuana brass and even though I was in front row seat to watch their crumbling marriage, we had our Zenith console stereo and this music was what soothed my heart and will forever. Lani, I love you so much. You're so beautiful and your voice is my sanity. Thank you!!!!

[@jeffreymorton2883]

The look of love is my favorite eternally. Teamo Lani Sergio and all you geniuses of Brasil 66. I'm 60 now and your music is TIMELESS!

[@tomlynntigard]

Like a Lover was the flip side of The Look of Love 45. I started liking Like a Lover because the arrangement, especially the strings is insanely beautiful; also Sergio repeating the lines Loni sang because he sounded a lot like Peter Tork of the Monkees, just slightly off-key, you can't "unhear" that. This song is timeless and it's lyrics describe love perfectly.

[@edwinlipton]

You were blessed,, and lucky.

[@kittykatz4001]

Me too! I’m now just turned 60 yo. I’m now an old black lady from upstate NY. My dad was a professional jazz drummer 🥁. These are all the sounds of my childhood: Sergio Mendes/Brazil 66, Burt Bacharach, Herb Alpert, and last, but never least, Antonio Carlos Joabim/Jao Gilberto/Stan Getz because my dad loved this! My then married parents separated in 1976 after about 13 yrs of marriage, but my father still lives on.

[@debbietownsend1673]

Love it!

[@utrips4free]

One of my very best songs I ❤️ love...Thank you God for Sergio Mendes and Brasil 67🙏🏼...

[@syuuseitamari6499]

[@gabrielsoares4423]

Música linda de se ouvir, ainda bem que a boa música nunca morre.

A magical group, their voices blending in perfect harmony like a warm summer breeze.

Maravillosa canción tenia 6 años cuando mi Papá le encantaba Sergio Mendes y yo siempre junto a el y volver a oir estas cancion es volver a sentir a mi amado Papá.

[@marcelogaea1064]

Never a rendition will do this masterpiece any justice. Thank you, Sergio, Lani & Brasil ‘66, for providing a well-rounded life soundtrack for us all.

[@QuickWorksBeauty]

Absolutely true!

[@douglasrowland3722]

That's right 💯 THESE CAN'T BE RE MADE ❤🎉❗❗🚫

I’ve been a fan since the beginning. Started my lifelong love of Brazilian music and my teaching myself how to speak Portuguese.

[@jmrodas9]

A beautiful poem with music added. And the voices are so good as is the music, it is a delight to hear it anytime, and any place.

[@DavePalmer-c3u]

Sheer class!! From dave west London ❤xx

[@fotoralf]

What a wonderful song. My eternal thanks go to a woman named Renata Calani who did a show on the local radio station, once every two weeks. She introduced us to Sergio, Tom, Joāo and all the other Brazilian musicians we had never heard of and who would become the soundtrack of your youth. They just don't make 'em like this anymore.

[@daveking6725]

Saw them at Red Rocks in Colorado in '68. Great music

[@Lolabelle59]

My big sister had his records, and when she wasn't around to play them, I did, unbeknownst to her. Rest in peace. ❤😊

[@fourthcard21]

thank-you sergio mendes, i was in my elementary years when i first heard your music. i fell in love immediately and then it was okay to not have a boyfriend even when i made it to high school. your music gently took me in an embrace it was just fine, i wasn’t alone. rest in peace sergio, i will look for you in heaven. ✨

[@nicolinet.vanstapele1395]

such a tender song 😊

[@robinyamada8226]

I actually see S M & Brazil '66 on stage in Honolulu,Hawaii in the late sixties! MEMORIES!❤❤❤

[@FS_fershosalmo]

Sergio Mendez, tu musica es una evidencia de tu amor por la música, por tu patria, por la humanidad y quien dejaste este inefable e invaluable legado. Bienaventurados quien podemos decir: AMO LA MÚSICA DE SERGIO MENDEZ Y A ❤❤TODO EL ELENCO QUE LE ACOMPAÑO... JOBIN, GETZ, GILBERTO ...AD INFINITUM

[@edwinlipton]

Such a wonderful, beautiful time too believe. It held, promise's that turned up lie's. Oh well. So it is. Still,, thank you Lord for the magical journey.

[@edwinlipton]

I truely,, truely hope so for YOU! It never could be for me,, I tried. But for you,,, "Let it be the One".

[@edmunddantes7165]

Never give up. Your match is there. I met my greatest love when I was 31 and we were together for 29 years until she passed. To her "Like a Lover" was the most romantic song ever.

[@eanderson5199]

Thank you guys love, beautiful blessings from M.A. this album is healing and peace at its finest.

[@MannyMallo]

Certain days I remember great first loves and heartbreaks too. Certain people are still very vivid in my life if only by memories

[@douglasrowland3722]

Isn't that what it's about??

[@soylentteal]

One of the most beautiful love songs ever created. My understanding is that it was written by a husband-wife team to each other.

[@soniaoliveirabello132]

Sucessos de voz e arranjos. Lindoos! Música envolvente e de bom gosto. Parabéns ❤🎤🎧🎹🎼🎵🎶💯💕😍❤👏👏👏

Greatest song Actavia Farhat from Pakistan

This is the vinyl record's reverse side of a big hit like "The Look of Love".

RIP to Sergio Mendes & Marilyn Bergman. Marilyn & Alan Bergman wrote the English Lyrics for Sergio Mendes. May YAHAVAY be with you both. 😪

[@paolomorelli5810]

Se ti capissi com'è leggero l'amore assieme

[@AT-gp9kd]

Lyrics Like a lover, the morning sun Slowly rises and kisses you awake Your smile is soft and fuzzy As you let it play upon your face Oh, how I dream I might be like the morning sun to you Like a lover, the river wind Sighs and ripples its fingers through your hair Upon your cheek it lingers Never having known a sweeter place Oh, how I dream I might be like the river wind to you How I envy a cup that knows your lips Let it be me, my love And a table that feels your fingertips Let it be me, let me be your love Bring an end to the endless days and nights Without you Like a lover, the velvet moon Shares your pillow and watches while you sleep Its light arrives on tiptoe Gently taking you in its embrace Oh, how I dream I might be like the velvet moon to you [Bridge:] Oh, how I dream I might be like the river wind to you How I envy a cup that knows your lips Let it be me, my love And a table that feels your fingertips Let it be me, let me be your love Bring an end to the endless days and nights Without you Like a lover, the velvet moon Shares your pillow and watches while you sleep Its light arrives on tiptoe Gently taking you in its embrace Oh, how I dream I might be like the velvet moon to you

[@QuickWorksBeauty]

Thanks for the lyrics!

[@theresaparker4891]

I think it's "temple that feels your finger tips"

[@garryberman894]

No, it's "table". @@theresaparker4891

[@daiu48]

The original lyrics by Nelson Motta in Portuguese - Cantador convey a completely different meaning! Canto a dor - a magical play on words! Definitely worth understanding the original Portuguese words! 1967 - military dictatorship-times were different in Brasil…

[@cbesthelper404]

Alan and Marilyn Bergman lyricists.

[@zu0832]

Yes the great Dori Caymmi wrote this beautiful song and his original lyrics in Portugues are very very sad

[@spindriftdrinker]

@@zu0832 I am a fan of the song "Flor Da Bahia"

[@debmauritson5016]

Two of the best lyricists; wrote one of my favorites "What are you doing the rest of your life." Streisand version.

[@daiu48]

@@zu0832 The transformative power of sadness- tristeza ( Brazilian blues), explained magically in Portuguese by Nelson Motta - Canto a Dor, Amor, Morte.. The English lyrics tell a different story…

[@carllocarlos1]

Então a versão de "O Cantador" é de Alan Bergman e Marilyn Bergman? Pensei que era de Sérgio Mendes...

[@daiu48]

O Cantador was written by Dori Caymmi and Nelson Motta. Original Brazilian song in Portuguese! ‘ Canto a dor , canto a vida e a morte e canto amor….’

[@daiu48]

[@crisoliveira1542]

When you want to know a piece of Brazilian music, please refer to this, such as Tom Jobim and the bossa nova. The music Anitta does doesn’t represent our music in its pure form, it’s purely comercial.

I miss watching Pope Benedict XVI saying mass ... on television, you tube...whatever😶 I can't believe I can be this in love with someone as I was and probably still with a...Pontiff😂😂😂😂 He must be in heaven having conversatiobs with God...Jesus the saints...etc

"How I envy a cup that knows your lips. Let it be me, my love. And a table that feels your finger tips. Let it be me. Let me be your love. Bring an end to these endless days and nights without you." Defining the longing in all of us. Nothing more beautiful could be, than this. 🥲
