What an amazing genius. I'm from Trinidad but i've loved his music for ever. Now I have an opportunity to sing some of his wonderful songs in Portuguese for a super concert to celebrate the independence of Brazil. Thank you Jobim for sharing your talent to the world.
I'm still learning his beautiful songs. Here are a couple of the songs I sang bearing in mind that I don't speak the language but I am planning to learn. th-cam.com/video/6qMxeNdIqhQ/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/2x5fKMuhH8k/w-d-xo.html
Niels Ohlsen, Cole Porter is also one of my favorites. I listen to his music quite a bit - versions of his songs by Sergio Mendes and Brasil ‘66, Michel Legrand, 101 Strings.
What an accomplishment.What an honor....to represent his entire country through his extraordinary artistic ability. His name and the name of Brazil have become one...his name with Bossa nova have become one..
This is a nice video. He was, without any doubt, a genius - a man capable of write beautiful melodies one after another. His music is so rich, harmonic and melodically, speaking that be or not you a musician surely will notice a deep musical knowledge flowing so naturally through his songs. Above all he was a man in love with his country. If anyone in interested in more stuff about Tom and his oeuvre, please check his notes being played by the likes of Baden Powell, Ney Matogrosso, Elis Regina and Raphael Rabello. It is well worth listening.
In one way, brasil was not kind to many of its brilliant musicians: I can think of one who was “invited to leave” when the military was running the country. But, in another way, it is a wonderful place for creating and working with other musicians. Every single moment in NYC must be used to somehow pay rent. But, in brasil, seeing family (often !) and eating beans and rice and salad and not paying EVERYTHING to a landlord, you can relax enough to play and work out some tunes. And you’ll make friends: real ones. Brazilian people are so so friendly.
I love these amazing songs combined by Jobim. These are the best and most well-known of his works. I so much love and appreciate this amazing music and will share it with friends!
Once heard Tony say that after "The Girl From Ipanema" he got mail from all over the world. He said that one letter the post office delivered was simply addressed "Jobim, Brasil". The letter was delivered to his home. The post office knew who he was too. He really got a kick out of that. Antônio Carlos Jobim. A charming man. Thank you for the post.
He also said that Frank Sinatra didnt have his number so he just called Brazil, then one attendant found Tom's house number but he wasnt there, so they found out the number of the bar he liked to go, named Veloso, and then the waiter just said "Mr Tom, it seems some foreigner wants to talk to you on the phone.". That was their first talk ever.
That one song "Waters Of March" so many beautiful songs! Reminds us of real beauty in our World and a high standard appreciation for beauty it is Lovely all of it
Awesome video! Bossa Nova is my favourite kind of music, so calm and beautiful, it's like a poetry whispered in our ears. Tom was a genius, absolutely genius
It’s no wonder his music has always been calming with a universal appeal. He wrote what he saw and was living in paradise on earth, something everyone can relate to as everyone can find their own paradise
I love this interview! Thank you so much for uploading! I love seeing dear Tom out in nature with the trees and nerding out over the birds, in his own element. :) Also the music...! Marvelous!!! Pure love.
I saw this in 1986, and videotaped it myself. It was well produced by NBC-TODAY. The second half live segment sounded phenomenal in 1986 on old (non-HD) TV. Jane Pauley was pregnant in the segment.
You're right about Jobim. I was fortunate to hear much of that when it was new. We knew it was great, but we assumed there would always be great things. Ha.
Gênio Brasileiro Tom Jobin, atualmente da até vergonha dessa "nova" música Brasileira, praticamente virou lixo, ainda bem que tivemos um passado musical.
Tudo bem, cara! É o orgulho de um gênio brasileiro. Isso é legal, pelo menos não são daqueles vira-latas que enquanto os gringos enchem a bola, o cara(brasileiro) mete o pau. Vi isso em vídeos do Pelé, gringos admirados com a genialidade do cara e brasileiros sentando o pau.
Tom Jobim escrevia as letras em português. A maioria das músicas foi com parceiros que escreviam as letras, em português, como Vinicius de Morais e Edu Lobo. Tom foi gravar nos Estados Unidos. Teve disco lançado lá. Os gringos ficaram loucos. Frank Sinatra ouviu o disco e logo conseguiu o telefone do Tom. A esposa de Tom atendeu e passou ao Frank o telefone do Bar Veloso(hoje Bar Garota de Ipanema) onde Tom estava naquele fim de tarde. E Tom foi gravar com Frank Sinatra. Importantes letristas americanos fizeram as versões em inglês, que foram gravadas mundo à fora.
Pq o vídeo é em inglês e tem muito gringo assistindo. Se vc quiser que todo mundo que está vendo o vídeo entenda seu comentário tem que se comentar em inglês. E não há nada de errado com isso. Jobim é Brasil, mas também é universal
Its impossible to put into words how much I wish I had the chance to meet this man and see his band play live. A special talent for the ages.

In Portuguese? who taught you Portuguese?
Trini here.. I perform his music atleast 4 times a week..
Juliet Robin Jobim rhymes with Robin 😊
A.C. Jobim was the best. He’s definitely one of my heroes.
one of mine, too. I'm a German, and I've been loving his music for more than 30 years by now.
A.C. Jobim and Cole Porter were in a class of two.
Same here. I really like his music. I have listened to his music for over a year.
Niels Ohlsen,
Cole Porter is also one of my favorites. I listen to his music quite a bit - versions of his songs by Sergio Mendes and Brasil ‘66, Michel Legrand, 101 Strings.

He was similar to many Cariocas in how much joy the ocean, sky, and life itself gave to him. He gave us so much beauty in his art.

@@gustavobuquera They then dropped one of the hottest Bossa albums to date. Class acts.
Tom jobim is the best player of the world. I love you Tom.
My favorite Bossa Nova artist of all time. He was great. Him and Frank. Blessings
I had the privilege of attending a concert with Jobim & Band in Carnegie Hall in 1985. Divine Music.....❤
i wish the news looked like that everyday
That one song "Waters Of March" so many beautiful songs! Reminds us of real beauty in our World and a high standard appreciation for beauty it is Lovely all of it
Awesome video! Bossa Nova is my favourite kind of music, so calm and beautiful, it's like a poetry whispered in our ears. Tom was a genius, absolutely genius
The final 3 songs are:
1) Samba do Avião
2) Wave
3) The Girl From Ipanema
Sensitivity, harmony, softly almost whispering in our ears. Pure geniuses, Tom we miss you so much👍

Eu não posso ver ou ouvir nada de Tom Jobim que eu começo a chorar.
Obrigado! Que não deixemos a obra de Jobim nunca morrer, nunca esmorecer...!
Jobim was such a genius.
It’s no wonder his music has always been calming with a universal appeal. He wrote what he saw and was living in paradise on earth, something everyone can relate to as everyone can find their own paradise
A gift from God to mankind...

+Anastasia G Thanks! Yeah, he's my favorite musician of all time; and quite a genius. Totally my idol.
+Margebird Mine toooo, he was one of the loveliest and most brilliant people to ever grace our planet. :))) Adore him.

Tommy Bridges Tks for that. Awesome material about this genius. I appreciate you shared with us.
There's also a great show in L.A. Tom and Gal Costa singing together in 1987.
Thank you. Yum-Yum
Aaww Tom I wished you were still alive!!! An exceptional human being ♥️♥️♥️
Extraordinary cool.Nothing like hearing his music or any of the greats for the 1st time and being hypnotized. Thanks for upload.
Great composer 👏👏👏 RIP Tom ❤
Jane Pauley - and Tom Jobim! It's January. Is it already Christmas? Pure gold!
O melhor de todos!! O genio absoluto!
The way this man speaks sounds so amazing,it sounds so relaxing to hear
Lo amo tanto!
Yo también! Jobim, el más grande y genial compositor!!❤
BRAVO !
Gênio. Sofisticado Incrível
A musical genius
Muito obrigado por nos presentear com essa dádiva
Gênio Brasileiro.
Thank you for uploading. An irreplaceable legend! ❤️
Such a nostalgia for a time I could never inhabit. This man was the most erudite and thankless musician of our era- eat it up while you can, chums.
There is a Greek word for your first sentence, anemoia.
You're right about Jobim. I was fortunate to hear much of that when it was new. We knew it was great, but we assumed there would always be great things. Ha.
Ele explicando a beleza das matas e da fauna,demais.
This Banda Nova of his is my favourite.

Gênio Brasileiro Tom Jobin, atualmente da até vergonha dessa "nova" música Brasileira, praticamente virou lixo, ainda bem que tivemos um passado musical.
Antonio Carlos Jobim, 1986 interpretation
Genius!
Great Jobim suite. ♥️
Legendary
Sofisticado e popular. Esse foi Tom Jobim.
Gênio!
Didn't know he spoke fluent English..
Is that Tiao Neto on bass it looks like him. Danilo Caymi on flute
La Passion D´hier Bossa Nova avec Fabio Valente____merci______________
Uma pérola..... Tom Jobim saudades
damn dude is the best !
AHHHHHHHHHH
Nothing he pointed out about Brazil was unique to Brazil.. Nature is virtually everywhere.
So what? It’s what meant to him . Not to you

WE HAVE A LOT MORE TREASURES IN OUR MUSIC, BUT NOW THE MEDIA GOES TO THE DARK SIDE OF OUR CULTURE. SHAME...
I wonder what Millenials and Zers would make of his music. Could they begin to appreciate it?
@@bobtaylor170 I’m 25 and I think his music has to be on my top 5. The man knows how to make great music!

It’s at the Botanical Garden of Rio de Janeiro. I’ve been there. Very beautiful.

"You know" the favourite filling word of latinos who don't speak native english.
his English is pretty good! far better than most of the other ones ...
True that but keep in mind that he learnt English after he had completed 30 years of age
When I was doing Toastmasters, a Latina woman corrected me by saying “what, what do I know?”
KKKKKKK ENGLISH IS A WORLD LANGUAGE, GENIUS.
It's too bad it's burning today
Shat up
Por que brasileiro precisa escrever em inglês?! E escreve mal, aliás, como podemos ver aqui nos comentários. Jobim é Brasil!
Tudo bem, cara! É o orgulho de um gênio brasileiro. Isso é legal, pelo menos não são daqueles vira-latas que enquanto os gringos enchem a bola, o cara(brasileiro) mete o pau. Vi isso em vídeos do Pelé, gringos admirados com a genialidade do cara e brasileiros sentando o pau.
SIMPLESMENTE PORQUE INGLÊS É A LíNGUA DA COMUNICAÇÃO UNIVERSAL. JOBIM É DO MUNDO.
Tanto faz.
Tom Jobim escrevia as letras em português. A maioria das músicas foi com parceiros que escreviam as letras, em português, como Vinicius de Morais e Edu Lobo.
Tom foi gravar nos Estados Unidos. Teve disco lançado lá. Os gringos ficaram loucos.
Frank Sinatra ouviu o disco e logo conseguiu o telefone do Tom. A esposa de Tom atendeu e passou ao Frank o telefone do Bar Veloso(hoje Bar Garota de Ipanema) onde Tom estava naquele fim de tarde.
E Tom foi gravar com Frank Sinatra.
Importantes letristas americanos fizeram as versões em inglês, que foram gravadas mundo à fora.
