In my case, my favorite Brazilian songs are "Agua de beber" and "Aguas de marco". I also like all songs on Lani's recording "A brazileira".

I am in total agreement with you about Dindi. Although, I’m not too impressed when it’s sung by a guy (e.g. Frank Sinatra on the Sinatra & Jobim album).
Edit to add: Wow, I just noticed that I have 777 posts. If only this were a slot machine...

Interesting that this old thread should come up again for me, because just a few weeks ago my bossa nova group was performing and we did "Dindi" (instrumentally) and this very attractive lady who had been sitting next to me listening said, "Oh, that's Junior's favorite off of his Dad's album." At first I thought I hadn't heard her right, and asked her to repeat herself and she said it again and it just suddenly dawned on me she was talking about Sinatra. So we got to talking at it turns out she is the publicist for the Sinatra kids and handles all the licensing of their dad's images. She hadn't known about the second Sinatra/Jobim LP ("& Company") or the unreleased singles like "Sabia." It was a fun evening.
DAN BOLTON said:Meu Pao by Astrud Gilberto...while I'm at it...does anyone know what this means in English? Also, could anybody translate the lyrics? It hin the title can be translated to ..."My Pao"...does Pao mean Paul? Is the song about a person? I have the song on a greatest hits compilation of hers, and there is scarcely any info on who wrote it.
