This late great lyricist is most famous for writing the English lyrics to the classic "The Girl From Ipanema." He wrote the English lyrics for numerous Brazilian songs in the 1960s, almost too many to count. For French cinema he wrote the words to the songs "Watch What Happens" and "I Will Wait For You." A true loss in the musical world. I know it is a cliche, but when we lose people of this high caliber, it's an end of an era and we will never see their likes again.
