110% ! And out of all the songs I have loved this is the one song that pops into my head THE MOST OFTEN from out of nowhere when I am just walking along. Mas que nada indeed !
First date I ever took a young lady I met was to see Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 in 1970. Well, it worked and we got married in 1972 and are still married. Thanks, Sergio...
lol...about the same year on a first date with a then- recent acquaintance I took her to see Nancy Wilson and Lou Rawls at the Hollywood Bowl. Soon after another guy took her to see Sergio Mendes...he ended up with her. Thanks a lot, Sergio!
We did the same. Dad his brother and father were musicians. Dad played this album over & over. It's a wonder the needle didn't score all the way through the record. LoL
I believe that my Mom has every album they ever released. As a kid she would play their music while she cleaned our house. This brings back such sweet memories from childhood. Excellent music, and such talent. I was indoctrinated to the finest music from the day I was born. I cannot thank my family for the joy they brought me through their love of music 🎵 ❤🎵
As a kid, your mother would clean your house ? Just how old was she ? How the hell old were you, for that matter ?!? (Try this: "When I was a kid, she would play their music while she cleaned the house...")
Hi friends, If you give permission, I suggest you Elis Regina songs, like this: th-cam.com/video/uwZYby2ckzo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=AcxwcaPYa7rtrZ8g Greetings from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil!
Back in the 60s music scene, Brazilians were the coolest people on the planet- Astrud Gilberto in "The Girl From Ipanema", then Sergio Mendes. The sound was way ahead of its time and still sounds fresh today.
Hey! Brazilian music is one of the things I'm most proud of in my country. Unfortunately, the 1960s and 1970s were particularly sad here in Brazil. There was a lot of repression by the ultra-right dictatorial regime supported and financed by the United States. Great artists like Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso, Gal Costa and Elis Regina were severely persecuted and had to flee the country as they could be arrested, tortured or killed. It is with happiness that we live in times of democracy here in Brazil, at the same time that we feel a certain anguish with the radicalization of our society. But I hope the storm ends someday. Greetings from Curitiba, in the south of Brazil.
Yes! The composer is Jorge Ben-- ----He and Sergio used to play together in the 60s out there by Copacabana at Beco das Garrafas- --- Tremendous sixties!
Absolutely loved Sergio and Brazil '66. I grew up with it playing at home when I was really young. My dad was a great piano player and always loved Sergio. RIP beautiful man. Thanks for all the amazing music.
RIP Sergio Mendes. I never get tired of spinning his Greatest Hits album with Brasil 66. Great stuff. I’ll play it today in his honor. Thanks for the great music Sergio. Rest in peace. ❤
Eartha Kitt, along with this iconic band, Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 are the perfect definition of classic elegance. Everyone looks great and the guy with the shakers and tambourine is awesome! My family is Afro-Caribbean and I was brought up with this type of music, International music. I thank my parents for introducing me to this fabulous music.
Yes, so thankful that in my family we listened to many styles of sophisticated music. My ears were spoiled practically from birth and I couldn't stomach much of the music of my teen years (the 80s) preferring much more the songs my elders liked.
I grew up a boomer in Miami. We always had the greatest music in our house. That wonderful music will never get old. When I am in a shit mood, a little bossa nova always lifts my spirits.
Yup. My parents were Haitian and I grew up in the '80s listening to '57- '77 Afro-Carib-Latin-Euro Funk/Jazz/Ballads. This is the soundtrack of my childhood.
it is timeless indeed...so great....musicianship, voices, the song itself.....no planned obsolescence like today's music....katy Perry or Ariana Grande will be nothin' but a forgotten joke in 30 years whilst this oldie will be listened worldwide at any time......that's the difference
Just heard about the passing of Sergio Mendes......His music was a big part of the soundtrack of my youth. Thank you for your music, Sergio. We are still dancing and listening to it and will be for a long time. Bravo! 👏❤
@@renegaderunner332 your math skills are incredible.. I did state my age.. but my dad had so much music on "Reel to Reel" that there always something to dance to, and even though old, his recordings were new to me :)
I'm just saying 🤷 how bad music 🎶 is now.i listen too blus jazz classical. Ps.a lot of classical music 🎶 i don't like. One of my top composers is heyden
Before my time, but I liked their sound. I was born in the late 60's. I just found out he passed away at 83. What a legacy he left the world and Brazil! I know Lani and her husband are devastated! They were lifelong pals.
The absolutely best Summer of my life. 1967 I was 20 years old and the world was my oyster. Would live forever. Not so. An old man now, reliving my glory days in memories.
1967 was one of my best years! Celebrated my 19th birthday in Vietnam. Fireworks were some of the best I had ever seen. Dinner was Beans and Mother Fers and pound cake.
I was 14 and this music was so glamorous. I have many of their albums and love them still. Yes, my dear, it was a truly fab time. The cars, the fashions the FUTURE! Shame the future didn't work out but, as you say, we have our memories to keep us going. Cheers.
I clearly remember seeing this on TV live in 1967 I was 13 years old. And remember how sexy, sophisticated and exciting the music and the performers were. This is what set me on the path to a bigger broader appreciation for music and eventually Smooth Jazz.
I'm so glad I was 31 in 1966 with a tape player on my sailboat, and tapes of Sergio Mendes and Brazil 66 that I could play as we sailed on Galveston Bay. Sergio and Antonio Carlos Jobim's music are memories that I'll always remember and associate with that great time of my life when I courted my future wife out on the bay, teaching a North Carolina girl from Asheville how to ride the wind while listening to some great new music from Brazil. Thanks Sergio and Antonio
En esta canción está encerrado todo un país .....PELE , LAS MUJERES HERMOSAS ,SU RITMOS , SU COLOR , SUS PLAYAS , SU RIQUESA , SU MUSICA .....TODO EL EXPLENDOR DE UN GRAN PAIS .....DESDE MÉXICO CON TODO MI CORAZÓN UN ABRAZO A TODOS UDS ....... BENDICIÓN
I was 14 when this song was a hit on WABC radio in NY. I loved it so much that later in my life I printed the lyrics in Portuguese and learned how to sing this phoenetically!
I was a few years older than you.....also lived in NYC...my first intro to Brazilian music...never could carry a tune..music was better way back when !!
They also used to play this song constantly on “Rambling with Gambling” on WWOR in NYC when I was a child. Instilled in me a love of the bossa nova which remains with me now at 61 years old. ❤
This was a track on the first Ep vinyl disk I ever bought. My lifelong love of Brazilian music was only consolidated by living in Brazil for a few months mainly In Salvador da Bahia where I met some famous musicians such as Luis Melodia and Milton Nascimento. When I came back to Australia I presented a weekly community radio programme on Brazilian music, founded the annual South American Festival of Music and Dance at the Bondi Pavilion and became Social Director of Sydney's own Escola do Samba. I was also fortunate to meet Egberto Gismonti and Nana Vasconcelos when they were performing in Sydney. There is something about Brazilian music that just nourishes my soul and always makes me smile.
Wow! Que incrível! Muito obrigado por divulgar a boa música brasileira aí na Austrália. Fico emocionado e feliz que a nossa cultura tenha te tocado de forma tão profunda. Adoro o Milton Nascimento e fui vê-lo em sua última apresentação ao público no emblemático show da turnê A Última Sessão de Música, em novembro de 2022 no estádio do Mineirão em Belo Horizonte. Foi uma linda experiência. Um abraço daqui da chuvosa cidade de Curitiba, no sul do Brasil.

Oh , yes !!! This is music , the real one , with beautiful voices , lyrics and musical composition. Good old love songs , oh what memories 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍69 years old , still in love with Brazilian singers like Vinicius, Toquinho , Maria Creuza,Maria Bethania, Pchinguinha, Tom Jobim , and so many more .
@Donald...I thought so until an Ugandan busiman introduced me to Evora, a singer from Cabo Verde. One of her back-up people plays a piano in a way I've never heard before.
This is so cool. I’ve always loved their sound. Lani Hall, “The Voice”, married Herb Alpert sometime after Brazil 66 signed with his A&M records. They’re still together.
I am 70 and they will always be one of my favorite groups. Beautiful music then and now. Timeless. Thank you Sergio Mendes, I will be listening to your music today.
Lani Hall, who married Herb Alpert, could not speak Portuguese but just learned the lyrics. Brazil 66 were groundbreaking in the late sixties/early seventies. Still one of my favourite numbers.
I'm 65 and still have my original Brasil '66 album. Vinyl. My buddies thought I was nuts listening to this when I was 12, 13, years old. I didn't care, it was and still is GREAT music. RIP Sergio Mendes. Major part of the soundtrack of my life.
Me encanta esta canción...!! fresca, super contagiosa y alegre... Yo diría q unos de los himnos de Brasil... A pesar de los años sigue tán fresca y contagiante como hace 53 años... Una joya...!! Un fuerte abrazo desde PERÚ...!!
LOL....I had a smaller version of those earrings that had different replacement colored orbs...hadn't thought about those in years....great memories and such a GREAT song!!!
This works because every single person on that stage was not only an excellent musician, they were also listening to each other. You don't usually get this level of competence outside of a recording studio. They were the best of the best. Oh, and Eartha Kitt...what talent.
I was only 4 years old and immediately fell in love with Brazilian music when my family played in our New Year's celebration, that's how we celebrated it in our home.
@@hecf4668 ¿¡¿Santana?!? ¡Bah! A lo mejor hace 50 años lo hubiera creído, pero desde entonces nomas toca las mismas frases en todas sus canciones. Todos sus solos suenan idénticos. Definitivamente no es de lo mejor de latinoamérica. ¿Cómo puedes decir que él es lo mejor sin mencionar nombres que verdaderamente son grandes, tales como Armando Manzanero, Carlos Gardel, Agustín Lara, Antônio Carlos Jobim, y otros? Santana será de los nombres más reconocidos, pero definitivamente no es de los mejores.
Esta banda brasileira, es FABULOSA !!!! cuando todavia era estudiante secundario aqui en Peru, escuchaba tremenda MELODIA...y hoy que ya estoy algo viejo, me recreo grandemente viendolos en esta cinta... GRACIAS.
After a long day of work, this songs puts me back on track. So joyful with the richness of the bossa nova jazz. And now, these two ladies have superb and groovy voices. This group surely brought good songs to the world.
Especially amazing since there were no microphones in sight for either the singers or instruments except for the one in front of Sergio which was used after the song was over so we so we could hear him speak. th-cam.com/video/ahs7Lb7aYco/w-d-xo.html I'm not knocking them. This is the way TV was and for the most part, still is done; pre-recorded audio with lip syncing.
Não tem como, o brasileiro quando para de querer imitar os gringos e foca na própria cultura só sai pérolas, orgulho demais da nossa cultura, principalmente das coisas clássicas 💚💛💙
I've always loved this song since way back then so I went to look up just what Mas que nada meant & found this very interesting article. It explains the origins of the song & composer, and has the lyrics, w/ English translation, fascinating!- www.thebestofbrazil.info/specialfeatures3.html
@@MsMcmoe aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa la
@@diogocatalano9557 I agree,many of the Latin genres have been spoiled .take Merengue from Dominican rep,the ultramerengue is unlistenable now.Cuban,great till the 90s,.
I'd been listening to Sergio's music all summer. I even heard a cover of this at Starbucks. So sad to hear he just passed away. Thank you Sergio!! Rest in Peace.
One of their best songs, which has passed the test of time. The rhythm and the lyrics are very good, and the girls' voices coupled to the excellently played piano and the other instruments, make it one of my favorites through the years.
I was only 9 when this came out, but I remember it very, very well. This song was everywhere, as were most of Sergio Mendez's songs. A fabulous time in music. So glad I was alive to hear it when it first came out.
Yes, was also about 9 or 10 years old when they had this song amongst many other tracks constantly playing on the radio. Such a different and distinctive sound. One of the reasons I'm constantly drawn to the latin American sound is the magnificent talents of Sergio Mendes and Brazil '66.
Um…hate to burst your bubble. But they were definitely not really singing and really playing in this clip. They basically just played the actual track from the album and pretended because it was for TV. Back then the expectation was that you were just sing along with your actual track. Many bands would smarten up to that and then demand to be able to play live, but most TV executives wouldn’t allow it.
Theirs was one of the first live concerts I attended when I was in high school. I think that Jose Feliciano also performed. I was probably too young to appreciate the great music. Love this song! Many thanks! 🎶🎹💕🙏
Rest In Peace, Sergio 🙏🏻💔 thank you for all your beautiful music
Thanks Sergio I heard this as a young kid back in the 70’s. RIP sir
Rest in peace Sergio Mendes. I remember your music during my time in Europe 1973, Venezuela 1977 to 1980 and Dominican Republic 1981 to 1985.
😢😢😢😢
RIP, Sergio when I heard Brazil Route 66 I became a fan, I believe it was the 70’s when I heard it.
WoW, why is it only today am I learning of his passing?
It is More Than Anything...
But, I will rejoice with the Musica in his honor
I am a brazilian musician 60 years old. Brazil is crying. Sérgio, descanse em paz e obrigado por tudo
We are saddened with you. Thank you for the music, Brazil and Sergio.
RIP SERGIO MENDEZ QEPD
😢
❤⚘️🙏
It is a great loss for the whole world. My favorite song of his is Like a Lover from 1967. A romantic masterpiece.
this was one of my favorite songs, as a teenager. Sergio Mendes and Brasil 66 was the bomb. Today in 2023, I still love Sergio Mendes
110% ! And out of all the songs I have loved this is the one song that pops into my head THE MOST OFTEN from out of nowhere when I am just walking along. Mas que nada indeed !
I feel the same.
Fine and beautiful 60s tune !
This is a wonderful ever-ever-ever green. Always fresh and exciting.
I was born in 1952 and the same with me here in Australia.

Portuguese is the perfectly suited language for this style of gentle, laid-back, sophisticated mid 60s Brasilian music.
Sergio Mendes is Brazilian, as were the singers on this recording
That was a bit of luck.
@@imbees2Lani Hall is actually from Chicago
It’s Brazilian. What other language would it be but Portuguese? That’s like saying English is the perfect language for blue grass music.

@@mitchellyoung5564 Yes.
@Donald...I thought so until an Ugandan busiman introduced me to Evora, a singer from Cabo Verde. One of her back-up people plays a piano in a way I've never heard before.
@@jayyoung4534 Thanks for the tip.
This is so cool. I’ve always loved their sound. Lani Hall, “The Voice”, married Herb Alpert sometime after Brazil 66 signed with his A&M records. They’re still together.
Thanks for that!
👍
I also love the fact that Lani Hall was born in Chicago.
I saw them perform together a few years ago, Such a fun concert.
I wonder if she was the reason for his divorce?
HAD THIS ALBUM. Im 72 now, and still fresh as when I first heard it!
Thank you, Sergio, God bless you, and rest in peace! I was a young man when I first listened to Brasil 66. You will always remain an icon!
Não existe, e não vai existir uma melhor execução desta música com Sergio Mendes. Sensacional.
Yes there are others, older than this, just as good.
have you ever heard about bud bunny? didn't think so,,,,,,,,,,,,hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
@@stj971 Jorge Ben version, the original one, from his debut album Samba Esquema Novo (1963), for me it's the definitive one
Estoy de acuerdo, la mejor epoca de la musica brasilera junto con Vinicius y tantos otros !
Sergio Mendes mexicano
The 1960's, the golden age of Brazilian culture.
and the golden age of pop music !
I'm old enough to remember Brasil 66 as a new modern style music...
Me too!
I loved it!!!
Damn... you've seen some stuff huh?
Me too. It still makes me feel good. I have to listen to a bit of Brazil every day.
Eartha Kitt's intro is perfect.
Likewise ine a my faves as aid I m 61
I am 70 and they will always be one of my favorite groups. Beautiful music then and now. Timeless. Thank you Sergio Mendes, I will be listening to your music today.
for me one of the BEST pieces of music EVER!! it makes me happy and forget about everything. ✌OBRIGADO 🙏
So true. Bossa Nova in its entirety, in fact.
Grande Sergio Mendes!! Tantíssimo orgulho de você!! Muito obrigada pela sua genialidade musical!
Berklee student listening in 2024…and humbled!!!!
Lani Hall, who married Herb Alpert, could not speak Portuguese but just learned the lyrics. Brazil 66 were groundbreaking in the late sixties/early seventies. Still one of my favourite numbers.
Yep me too! This group was a huge smash and for good reason!
Welcome to 1967
Berklee ?
@@lorenzomagazzeni5425 I thought the same thing. But who cares, I'm just an old fart.
Canadian here. I love their music, I always did. Love to Sergio Mendes & group!!
Oh my, it gives me chills. My late Dad used to play this when I was about 4 in 1966, and I loved it
I grew up listening to this as a kid, became a musician, and just listened to this again and am blown away by how great the music is, Incomparable!
I was 4
ME TOO!
@@petefroehling8704I'm 62 in 3 weeks time!
@@robroy6072lovely!
RIP .Sergio ..magic is hard to write and you certainly captured it here
This is entertainment. This is rockin' Latin jazz at its finest. This is music!! And Eartha Kitt..... what more can be said?!
You can't say anything more. 65-66-67 Tops it!
beautiful music of sergio mendes & brasil 66. never fade!
bossa nova.
She's prrrrrrfect
JP03 0 , Kitt, was eerily exotic, enough said
Sérgio Mendes levando à música brasileira para o mundo. Continue tocando no céu que o acolhe.
Sergio Mendes,grande divulgador da nossa musica, porque não temos outros como ele????? orgulho brasileiro.......
vc imagina hj em dia tem funk, anitta....sei la, decadencia total.
E isso aí Dalcio, MPB de PRIMEIRÍSSIMA qualidade!!!
Ivan Lins is still going strong th-cam.com/video/XyqSZvg4XAM/w-d-xo.html
Si asi es la realidad
La culpa la tiene esta mierda de rap !
Cuanta añoranza de aquellos maravillosos 16 años tenia, cuando sonaba esta canción, mi padre tenia el disco y me encantaba ponerlo una y otra vez
I've always been a fan of this wonderful group. When it comes to real good music, Sergio Mendes & Brazil 66 are second to NONE!
thestick52. i grew up listening to this group. love them
So true Sergio Mendes is such a great pianist
I'm 65 and still have my original Brasil '66 album. Vinyl. My buddies thought I was nuts listening to this when I was 12, 13, years old. I didn't care, it was and still is GREAT music. RIP Sergio Mendes. Major part of the soundtrack of my life.
I'm 69, and right there with you! Have my lps as well.
Still enjoying the beat, the rhythm...in 2022. Ageless.💓
Also in 2023
Who’s listening this wonderful song of this industry
Those were the days of great talent. And classic beard's
11 million plus
Old man TN here.
I am!
Me encanta esta canción...!! fresca, super contagiosa y alegre... Yo diría q unos de los himnos de Brasil... A pesar de los años sigue tán fresca y contagiante como hace 53 años... Una joya...!! Un fuerte abrazo desde PERÚ...!!
Mientras tengamos. Siempre vamos a sentir fresco ese recuerdo de esa música! !!! Saludos desde Venezuela! !!!
Sergio, vai com Deus, orbigado por elevar tanto a musica do nosso país.Sempre sera um orgulho para nós. Nos vemos irmao!!!
brasil un abrazo de un nicaraguense , ustedes han aportado tanto a la belleza del mundo
Amigo cuánta razón, saludos hasta ese bello país NICARAGUA, desde CDMX.
Nicaragua
♥️♥️
Hard to believe this is like 50 years old. Great music remains great music.
Those earrings have just been re classfied as dwarf planets!
LOL....I had a smaller version of those earrings that had different replacement colored orbs...hadn't thought about those in years....great memories and such a GREAT song!!!
Wow, I wonder if her ear holes were stretched by the weight of those Awful looking blue balls earrings....lol
Jajajjajaa lol
Yeah,I was lookin' at her earrings too !?!
@@islndgrl832 They were VERY lightweight plastic or hooked over the top of the ear like Bajoran earrings.
QEPD Sergio... un sonido verdaderamente único que todavía resuena más de 50 años después.
Maravilhoso! Essa musica reflete a alma do país, possui ritmo, bossa, criatividade e leveza. O Brasil na sua essência ainda é assim.
R.I.P. Eartha Kitt (1927-2008) and Sergio Mendes (1941-2024).
This was so cool. It is....(in 2019!!)...still cool. All these years later..
Yes Indeed!
Cooler than cool!
do you mean timeless ?
yes i think so
yes it is
Yes !!!! oh ba oh ba oh ba!!!
MY DAD FILLED THE HOUSE WITH THIS BEAUTIFUL MUSIC BACK IN THE DAY❤ I STILL LISTEN TO SERGIO MENDEZ & BRASIL66 ❤
This works because every single person on that stage was not only an excellent musician, they were also listening to each other.
You don't usually get this level of competence outside of a recording studio.
They were the best of the best.
Oh, and Eartha Kitt...what talent.
My mom taught me how to dance to this album may she rest in peace. Love u mom

It's a good day to be alive
Me encanta la samba, admiro a Sergio Méndez, desde hace muchos años, saludos desde la costa del sol , Andalucía. ESPAÑA. 2022.
I was only 4 years old and immediately fell in love with Brazilian music when my family played in our New Year's celebration, that's how we celebrated it in our home.
Excelente Sergio Mendes, gran compositor y arreglista de todo américa y el mundo, aunque no soy Brasileño, me llena de orgullo. Saludos desde México!!
Sergio Mendes, Roberto Carlos y Santana lo mejor que ha parido Latinoamérica.
Esa composición es de Jorge Ben Jor.
OK, gracias por la aclaración.
Grande Iberoamerica. 😍😍
@@hecf4668 ¿¡¿Santana?!? ¡Bah! A lo mejor hace 50 años lo hubiera creído, pero desde entonces nomas toca las mismas frases en todas sus canciones. Todos sus solos suenan idénticos. Definitivamente no es de lo mejor de latinoamérica. ¿Cómo puedes decir que él es lo mejor sin mencionar nombres que verdaderamente son grandes, tales como Armando Manzanero, Carlos Gardel, Agustín Lara, Antônio Carlos Jobim, y otros? Santana será de los nombres más reconocidos, pero definitivamente no es de los mejores.
One of the best songs... ever. More than fifty years since it was composed and still a great one.
...truly a classic...
Diana Westrup The Amazing Sergio Medes 😁
This song was written and recorded by Jorge Ben in 1963
It was, and remains the most important song in my life.
So Many Stars is also well worth a listen.
Esta banda brasileira, es FABULOSA !!!! cuando todavia era estudiante secundario aqui en Peru, escuchaba tremenda MELODIA...y hoy que ya estoy algo viejo, me recreo grandemente viendolos en esta cinta... GRACIAS.
Viva Brazil , Peru , Colômbia, Paraguai e todos da América Latina Unida .
Desde Colombia Sergio Mendes 😭😢😥, excelente musico. Tu musica era puro AMOR ❤.
After a long day of work, this songs puts me back on track. So joyful with the richness of the bossa nova jazz. And now, these two ladies have superb and groovy voices. This group surely brought good songs to the world.
The young ladies singing have the best harmonies I have ever heard.they blend so well👏👏👏👏
No doubt those two and the front gals for ABBA are amazing!
@@bowlingdj300 I think the girl on the left is Herb Alpert's future wife.
the woman with the silver dress on the left is lani hall(now mrs herb alpert)
Only one singing. Herb's wife Iani (closest to the band). Her voice was recorded twice. Other lady was just there for effect
Especially amazing since there were no microphones in sight for either the singers or instruments except for the one in front of Sergio which was used after the song was over so we so we could hear him speak. th-cam.com/video/ahs7Lb7aYco/w-d-xo.html I'm not knocking them. This is the way TV was and for the most part, still is done; pre-recorded audio with lip syncing.
Me encanta la música Brasileira. La bossa Nova es a mi gusto elegante. Gracias por tal lindas armonías
Saludos desde Mexico
Gracias hermano.
Descanso em paz, Sergio. Obrigado por espalhar o melhor da cultura brasileira pelo mundo.
Não tem como, o brasileiro quando para de querer imitar os gringos e foca na própria cultura só sai pérolas, orgulho demais da nossa cultura, principalmente das coisas clássicas 💚💛💙
Concordo com VOCÊ!!! Desde LIMA PERÚ
Amém. Nao sou brasileiro mas nao tem nada como a musica classica Brasuca. Tudo de bom.
no idea what you said but hell yeah
pois é.. tem que respeitar a prata de casa.. não deixe o samba morrer.
Esta musica só podia ser boa. Pois foi o ano do meu nascimento.
Es una tremenda canción, tiene tremendo ritmo, me gusta muchísimo!!! Felicitaciones al maestro Sergio Mendes.
Billions of people around the world say the following: “Save Brazilian popular music. One of the most important and best on planet earth ”
I've always loved this song since way back then so I went to look up just what Mas que nada meant & found this very interesting article. It explains the origins of the song & composer, and has the lyrics, w/ English translation, fascinating!-

Indeed Brazilian music was great. Not anymore.
@@diogocatalano9557 I agree,many of the Latin genres have been spoiled .take Merengue from Dominican rep,the ultramerengue is unlistenable now.Cuban,great till the 90s,.
I'd been listening to Sergio's music all summer. I even heard a cover of this at Starbucks. So sad to hear he just passed away. Thank you Sergio!! Rest in Peace.
One of their best songs, which has passed the test of time. The rhythm and the lyrics are very good, and the girls' voices coupled to the excellently played piano and the other instruments, make it one of my favorites through the years.
I remember them when they appeared in 1966. I was 13. I instantly fell in love with their music. I followed them for many years.
The exquisite voice of Lanny Hall added to the beautiful sound of Sergio Mendes and Brasil 66, what a combination.
So sad to hear he's gone. He brought colour to an increasingly grey world. Thanks for the all of the music. You brought so much to so many.
The lady on the left married Herb Alpert of the Tijuana Brass fame. They are still married and Herb is in his 80's.
Yes, Lani Hall.
CL Forever she was/is a doll
Love her voice, dress and moves. Classy.
Beautiful lady .. love Herb
Saw them both do this live a few years back. Still totally cool and amazing. Such an honor!
I was only 9 when this came out, but I remember it very, very well. This song was everywhere, as were most of Sergio Mendez's songs. A fabulous time in music. So glad I was alive to hear it when it first came out.
Mendes*
I heard it in 1968 and was 18 ...
still have a vinyl
and love it
I was 9 when this came out too! What wonderful memories it brings back!
Yes, was also about 9 or 10 years old when they had this song amongst many other tracks constantly playing on the radio. Such a different and distinctive sound. One of the reasons I'm constantly drawn to the latin American sound is the magnificent talents of Sergio Mendes and Brazil '66.
I was 14 yrs I SURE remember IT!
It's timeless for a reason. The band was really playing and the singers were really singing.
Um…hate to burst your bubble. But they were definitely not really singing and really playing in this clip. They basically just played the actual track from the album and pretended because it was for TV. Back then the expectation was that you were just sing along with your actual track. Many bands would smarten up to that and then demand to be able to play live, but most TV executives wouldn’t allow it.
Theirs was one of the first live concerts I attended when I was in high school. I think that Jose Feliciano also performed. I was probably too young to appreciate the great music. Love this song! Many thanks! 🎶🎹💕🙏
