Anyone here from Castaways?
Couldn't get enough of her sweet sound!

[JoshTurnerGuitar]

Killer arrangement and performance. Love the subtle change to the vocal phrasing and the chord subs.

[huntrrams]

She makes Bossa nova and Portuguese sound like heaven

[josiah]

0:18 that hit of Phrygian dominant got me so good

[greguz]

Timbre: Yes. Pitch: Yes. Phrasing, articulation and syncopation: Yes, yes, yes. Dynamics: Yes. Creativity: Yes. I can't really assess the pronunciation, but it sounds great, and the original lyrics are much more musical compared to the flatter English version anyway, so: Yes. Supportive accompaniment & great musicianship all around: Yes and yes. Oh, how I wish I could sit in the front row and listen to this as it was being performed! This is what music should be all about!!!

The trumpet player's face at 1:47 gets me everytime lol

[Jamer]

You ability to switch from a higher range to lower one in a manner of a few milliseconds its astonishing.

[jkobain]

Yes! This is the song that introduced your voice to me!
Hats off to Adam Neely and Martina DaSilva! ♥

[MudStuffin]

The bass player straight outta Hogwarts

First half looks like he's wearing a wizards hat

[bruninhohenrri]

Our Brazilian masterpiece played by a masterpiece band. Loved the vocal arrangement

[TheJp]

Bossa nova makes me so proud of being Brazilian

[gateofdreams]

One cannot help falling in love with Martina' singing. She is the Karen Carpenter of jazz. Karen was -possibly- the best pop singer this country ever produced, with a distinctive voice that came accross crystal clear. Martina has nothing to envy Karen. Her voice, the quality and taste of arragements and vocal flourishes is impeccable. Jobim, Vinicius, Joao Gilberto, Dori Caymmi and other great musician/composers are smiling wherever they are when Martina sings their songs. Even Claus Ogerman himself, would had been very pleased to have arranged for a Martina DaSilva record.

Olha, que coisa mais linda
Mais cheia de graça
É ela, menina, que vem e que passa
Num doce balanço, a caminho do mar

Moça do corpo dourado
Do sol de Ipanema
O seu balançado
É mais que um poema
É a coisa mais linda que eu já vi passar

Ah, por que estou tão sozinho?
Ah, por que tudo é tão triste?
Ah, a beleza que existe
A beleza que não é só minha
Que também passa sozinha

Ah, se ela soubesse
Que quando ela passa, o mundo sorrindo
Se enche de graça e fica mais lindo
Por causa do amor

2:09 was super smooth. Well done, I enjoyed the melodic experimentation throughout the piece

[samguitarguy]

@1:50 that guy is so pissed. Reminds me of Miles Davis looking at Herbie Hancock when Herbie finished his phrase

[nugget]

As a Brazilian person, i can assure that this is perfect. I been listening to this for almost an hour, and i'm not really a fan of brazilian songs, but i loved this, thank you for this beautiful cover

[Necron-ezcc]

Sheer perfection!!! Martina is the Ultimate Siren of Song.

[adrienneadamska]

One of my favourite songs of all time. The girl from Ipenema, in Portuguese. The haunting melody, the bosses nova rhythm. The sound of the Brazilian sun. This version is with that extra bit of spice. The vocalist is an absolute beast The musicians, second to none. Each super skillful. The pianist is profoundly excellent. Together, super impressive

[thepainphantom]

Music has this universal language even when I don't understand a word of what she's saying. Lovely!🦋💃

[SchlimmShadySmash]

2:09 that line of melody you sing is so clean. Well done.
