The Girl from Ipanema - 1964
" Garota de Ipanema " (" The Girl from Ipanema ") is a Brazilian bossa nova and jazz song. It was a worldwide hit in the mid-1960s and won a Grammy for Record of the Year in 1965 . It was written in 1962, with music by Antônio Carlos Jobim and Portuguese lyrics by VinÃcius de Moraes . English lyrics were written later by Norman Gimbel .
The first commercial recording was in 1962, by Pery Ribeiro . The Stan Getz recording featuring the vocal debut of Astrud Gilberto became an international hit. This version had been shortened from the version on the album Getz/Gilberto (recorded in March 1963, released in March 1964) which had also included the Portuguese lyrics sung by Astrud's then husband João Gilberto . In the US, the single peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100 and went to number one for two weeks on the Easy Listening chart. Overseas it peaked at number 29 on the UK Singles Chart and charted highly throughout the world.
Numerous recordings have been used in films, sometimes as an elevator music cliché . It is believed to be the second-most recorded pop song in history, after " Yesterday " by The Beatles . The song was inducted into the Latin Grammy Hall of Fame in 2001. In 2004, it was one of 50 recordings chosen that year by the Library of Congress to be added to the National Recording Registry .
In 2000, the 1964 release of the song by Stan Getz & Astrud Gilberto on Verve Records was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.
