Sergio Mendes - The Girl From Ipanema (Garota De Ipanema) Lyrics






Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes each one she passes goes ahh

When she walks it's like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gently
That when she passes each one she passes goes ahh

Oh, but I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I love her
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
But each day when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead not at me

Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes I smile
But she doesn't see
She just doesn't see
No, she doesn't see

    Sergio spells his surname, "Mendes," not "Mendez."  The "-ez" ending for names is common where Spanish is spoken, but not in Brazil and Portugal, where Portuguese is spoken.  Also, the final "-s" is usually pronounced like the "-sh" in English.

    J.... F....

    You're right, but close. It's pronounced more like "zhj", not "sh".
    Citations: my last name

    Interesting! What you say ("zhj," not "sh") may be true in Brazil, but the sound is definitely "sh" in Portugal. I have heard it thousands of times -- and even discussed the subject with a tour guide on a bus that went from Lisbon (Lisboa) to Fatima.

    J. F. Gecik you did your homework 👊🏼

    J.... F....

    Yes, you're correct. About the "final 's': The "sh" is true in the Rio (Carioca) accent, but not common in São Paulo (Paulistano).

    Thanks for posting! This beautiful track is actually composer Antonio Carlos Jobim himself playing with an orchestra Conducted by Eumir Deodato first released on the Jobim's album "Tide" and recorded in May 1970.

    You are right¡¡All the best..
