about

Following her succesful performance together with her band at Electric Castle Festival, Catalina Cara is launching her own version of „The Girl From Ipanema” of Frank Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim.

Catalina is passionate about Bossa Nova music and wanted to have this particular song as part of her repertoire. This song will be included on the new cover EP which will be launched soon and will have more reinterpreted songs by Catalina Cara and reproduced by Yin Creatif.

Catalina brings her signature dream pop approach and adds a special nuance to the energy of the record with airy vocals to give an extra layer of space to get lost into the Rio De Janeiro well known beach - in the best way possible.

lyrics

Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes
Each one she passes goes - ah

When she walks, she's like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when she passes
Each one she passes goes - ooh

Olha que coisa mais linda, mais cheia de graça
É ela a menina que vem e que passa
Num doce balanço a caminho do mar
Moça do corpo dourado do sol de Ipanema
O seu balançado é mais que um poema
É a coisa mais linda que eu já vi passar

Ah, por que estou tão sozinho?
Ah, por que tudo é tão triste?
Ah, a beleza que existe
A beleza que não é só minha
Que também passa sozinha

Olha que coisa mais linda, mais cheia de graça
É ela a menina que vem e que passa
Num doce balanço a caminho do mar
Moça do corpo dourado do sol de Ipanema
O seu balançado é mais que um poema
É a coisa mais linda que eu já vi passar

Ah, se ela soubesse
Que quando ela passa
O mundo sorrindo se enche de graça
E fica mais lindo por causa do amor

Ah, she watches so sadly
